Langue : Anglais
Auteurs : van den Dool Leon, Hendriks Frank, Gianoli Alberto, Schaap Linze
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??.
Reflections on Good Governance.- Designing Good Urban Governance.- Partnerships in European, Indian and Chinese Cities.- Multi-level Governance.- Citizen Partizipation.
