| Description: |
This collection of articles discusses key theoretical approaches, issues and debates about local politics and local democracy in the UK. The experience of other countries is reviewed and the book offers a reconstruction of the arguments for local democracy from a number of perspectives. |
| Synopsis: |
The transformation of British local government into a new and complex system of local governance raises fundamental theoretical questions as well as empirical ones. Rethinking Local Democracy argues that traditional defences of local government are no longer adequate and that the case for local autonomy and local democracy needs to be radically rethought. It brings together a set of specially-commissioned chapters by leading academics designed to stimulate and contribute to debate on these issues. |
