The Quest for Good Urban Governance: Theoretical Reflections and International Practices: Urban and Regional Research International

Autor Leon van den Dool, Frank Hendriks, Alberto Gianoli, Linze Schaap
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 iun 2015
This book demonstrates both successes and failures in attempts to get closer to the ideal of good urban governance in cities in North-America, Europe, and Asia. It presents a value menu and deliberately does not come up with “one best way” for improving urban governance. Good urban governance is presented as a balancing act, an interplay between government, business and civil society in which the core values need careful and timely attention. The authors address questions such as “What is deemed “good” in urban governance, and how is it being searched for?”, and “What (re)configurations of interactions between government, private sector and civil society are evolving, and to what results?”.
