Ebook: Governance of Europe's City Regions: Planning, Policy and Politics

This work considers the changing role of the European Union in regional issues, explores how national governments have become increasingly involved at the regional scale and examines the constitutional and political contexts in which regional and local governments operate. Detailed case studies of regions in Germany and England, illustrate contrasts in European approaches to the scale of government, and the complex interactions of international, national, regional and local scales of policy intervention.
