基本説明
Highlights the economic difficulties cities currently face, expands upon the concept of e-govermment, and thoroughly updates all data and scholarship.
Full Description
Cities—and urban managers—are resilient in the face of their many challenges. Managing Urban America, now in its seventh edition, guides students through the politics of urban management—doing less with more while managing conflict, delivering goods and services, responding to federal and state mandates, adapting to changing demographics, and coping with economic and budgetary woes.
Fully revised, this new edition:
highlights the economic difficulties cities currently face, and how they will rebound;
expands significantly upon the concept of e-government, and offers numerous examples in both theory and practice;
integrates what were once competing models of government (REGO, NPM, NPS, and TPA) into what the authors call the Modern Public Management (MPM) model, which draws on the positive aspects of each to better manage the modern city;
includes many new case studies, including some with a global perspective as the authors examine the management of international cities; and
thoroughly updates all data and scholarship.
