The politics of decentralisation: Revitalising local democracy (Public policy and politics)

This wide-ranging book sets discussion of the various approaches to local government decentralisation in the context of the changing nature of public service management and the possibilities for new kinds of public involvement in government decision-making. It draws on a wide range of experiences throughout the UK as well as the findings of an in-depth study of the impact of radical decentralisation strategies in two inner London boroughs to provide an authoritative assessment of the politics of decentralisation.

Leading the Inclusive City: Place-Based Innovation for a Bounded Planet

<p>Growing global inequality is often at its most stark in cities―and cities themselves are often seen as powerless to affect the problem, which is driven more by national and global trends than by local policies. While acknowledging the difficulties cities face, <i>Leading the Inclusive City</i> mounts a powerful case that cities do have tools at their disposal for ameliorating inequality, advancing social justice, promoting environmental responsibility, and bolstering community empowerment. Using examples from cities around the world, Robin Hambleton educates and inspires, offering practical ideas for local leaders who want to change urban life for the better.</p>
