Inhaltsangabe

While government provides the structure of public leadership, governance is
the art of public leadership. This timely book examines current trends in
metropolitan governance issues. It analyzes specific cases from thirteen
major metropolitan regions in the United States, Canada, and Mexico, all
woven together by an overall framework established in the first three
chapters. The distinguished contributors address such governance issues as
city-county consolidation, local-federal coordination, annexation and
special districting, and private contracting, with special attention to
lessons learned from both successes and failures. As urban governance
innovations have clearly outpaced urban government structures in recent
years, the topics covered here are especially relevant.
