Discovering American Regionalism

An Introduction to Regional Intergovernmental Organizations

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

In this revolutionary new book, authors David Miller and Jennifer Nelles humbly offer a new way to conceptualize those common approaches: Regional Intergovernmental Organizations (RIGOs) that bring together local governments to coordinate policies across jurisdictional boundaries. Providing a new conceptual framework for understanding how regional decision-making has emerged in the US, this book will provoke a new and rich era of discussion about American regionalism in theory and practice.
