Rezensionen

"The book accomplishes its aforementioned objectives by helping readers understand the academic and practical meanings of inter-local cooperation in local governance, the variation in the use of inter-local cooperation across countries (particularly in Europe), and the areas that we need to elaborate on in the future. ... book will help practitioners and students and scholars of local governance and city management understand the dynamics in this field. ... a useful textbook for graduate seminar classes on local and metropolitan governance." (Sung-Wook Kwon, Journal of Public and Nonprofit Affairs, Vol. 2 (1), 2016)
