Synopsis

Contributors from a wide range of social sciences and business fields examine economic development and subnational governance from the perspectives of theorizing subnational governance and development, fiscal decentralization, political administrative relations, service delivery, political representation, and subnational governance. Among their topics are the institutional imperatives of local economic governance: lessons from a small island developing state, fiscal decentralizing: constraints to revenue-raising by local government in Zimbabwe, co-creation as a social innovation in the delivery of public services at the local government level: the Slovak experience, and local representation in Australia: preliminary findings of a national survey.
