Urban Environmental Governance Synopsis

This title was first published in 2001: An insightful account of how different local government structures influence the capacity to address and alleviate the urban environmental problem of air quality management. Using the perspective of local and central authorities and other relevant agencies it combines analysis of the impact of political and institutional changes for air quality management with case studies of London and Mexico City. An extremely useful resource for a wide range of disciplines from comparative local government to environmental studies.
