Meer over het boek

Focusing on the dynamics of local politics, the book analyzes how government policies impact communities and highlights the beneficiaries and those disadvantaged by these policies. Through a comparative study of Britain and the United States, it delves into the evolving roles of institutions and individuals within local political frameworks. Originally published in 1991, it contextualizes local government practices by examining the influence of national, international, and historical factors on their development.
