Title: | Local Government Reform: A Comparative Analysis of Advanced Anglo-American Countries | Contributor(s): | Dollery, Brian Edward (author); Garcea, Joseph (author); LeSage, Edward (author) | Publication Date: | 2008 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/2436 | Abstract: | During the 1980s and 1990s most, if not all, municipal governments throughout the world have been subjected to a series of reforms. In economically advanced democracies such reforms are the most recent iteration of municipal modernization initiatives that extend back to the nineteenth century, and in some instances predate independent nationhood. In common with previous episodes of municipal reforms, the general purpose of the reforms over these two decades has been to eliminate problems that are deemed to hamper either municipal governance or other governance structures within each political system. | Publication Type: | Book | Publisher: | Edward Elgar Publishing Limited | Place of Publication: | Cheltenham, United Kingdom | ISBN: | 9781847200716 | Fields of Research (FOR) 2008: | 140218 Urban and Regional Economics | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 910209 Preference, Behaviour and Welfare | HERDC Category Description: | A3 Book - Edited | Publisher/associated links: | http://www.e-elgar.co.uk/Bookentry_Main.lasso?id=12592 http://books.google.com/books?id=y2EH2pXtNesC http://nla.gov.au/anbd.bib-an43332049 |
