Beschreibung
This text provides a systematic review of the reform of local government since the election of New Labour in 1997. Modern Local Government:
" provides the relevant historical context for the predicted ′death of local government′ in the Thatcher era
" explains the New Labour agenda for local government and the components which make up local governance in England today
" offers substantive discussion of: decision-making; community strategies; performance measures; procurement, privatization, partnerships; the role of e-government; and standards and corruption
" analyzes the implications of reform at different spatial scales - from the local to the regional - and offers a rich discussion of the ′new localism′
" presents an overview of the role of European Union legislation in areas like employment, environment and competition.
" concludes with a consideration of the possible futures for local government including local area agreements, local public service boards and choice.
Modern Local Government is a unique assessment of local government reform from the perspective of both local and central government, which is fully informed by an analysis of the role of the European Union. It will be the key resource for all students of local government in planning and related disciplines.
