Material type: TextSeries: ASPA Series in Public Administration & Public PolicyPublisher: New York ; London : Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2023Copyright date: ©2023Edition: First editionDescription: xix, 388 Pages ILLISBN: 9780429671401; 9780429001086Subject(s): Local government | Local governmentDDC classification: 320.8068 Summary: "In a recent paradigm shift, local governments find themselves shouldering more responsibility for day-to-day governance and crisis management, thanks to regulations and federal spending cuts. While twenty years ago a book on local government administration might have been considered complete with chapters on budgeting, public personnel management, productivity and responsivity, and community engagement, any discussion of local government must now also include resiliency, emergency management, climate change, smart cities, social media, and infrastructure funding. Bringing together key voices from the academic and public sectors, Local Government Management offers techniques and insight into how local government can most effectively lead and manage their resources in an evolving political - and environmental - landscape. Featuring examples from expert contributors' own decades of public service and research, this forward-thinking book explores the rapid speed of change in local communities and the need for local government to not only adapt, but to also proactively plan for the future. Local Government Management is essential reading for local government officials, public stakeholders, practitioners, and students of public administration and management"--Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
