Metropolitan Governance and Policy explores how partnerships between local governments are established or maintained. Cooperation between local actors is the fundamental foundation of governance networks, yet how cooperative relationships are established remains underexpored and poorly understood. What factors encourage or hinder cooperation between municipalities for regional governance of economic development? In investigating this question, the book integrates the different approaches of regionl governance and intermunicipal cooperation scholarship into one theoretical framework that investigates how local institutions and externally-generated opportunities affect the strength of cooperative partnerships. The influence of these factors on cooperation between municipal governments is tested in four metropolitan regions and across three issue areas. Metropolitan Governance and Policy will be of interest to students and scholars of urban politics and governance, and comparative politics.
How are metropolitan regions governed? What makes some regions more effective than others in managing policies that cross local jurisdictional boundaries? Political coordination among municipal governments is necessary to attract investment, rapid and efficient public transit systems, and to sustain cultural infrastructure in metropolitan regions. In this era of fragmented authority, local governments alone rarely possess the capacity to address these policy issues alone. This book explores the sources and barriers to cooperation and metropolitan policy making. It combines different streams of scholarship on regional governance to explain how and why metropolitan partnerships emerge and flourish in some places and fail to in others. It systematically tests this theory in the Frankfurt and Rhein-Neckar regions of Germany and the Toronto and Waterloo regions in Canada. Discovering that existing theories of metropolitan collective action based on institutions and opportunities are inconsistent, the author proposes a new theory of "civic capital", which argues that civic engagement and leadership at the regional scale can be important catalysts to metropolitan cooperation. The extent to which the actors hold a shared image of the metropolis and engage at that scale strongly influences the degree to which local authorities will be willing and able to coordinate policies for the collective development of the region. Metropolitan Governance and Policy will be of interest to students and scholars of comparative urban and metropolitan governance and sociology.
