Directly elected mayors are political leaders who are selected
directly by citizens and head multi-functional local government
authorities. This book examines the contexts, features and debates
around this model of leadership, and how in practice political
leadership is exercised through it. The book draws on examples from
Europe, the US, and Australasia to examine the impacts, practices,
and debates of mayoral leadership in different cities and
countries. Themes that recur throughout include the formal and
informal powers that mayors exercise, their relationships with
other actors in governance - both inside municipalities and in
broader governance networks - and the advantages and disadvantages
of the mayoral model. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches
are used to build a picture of views of and on directly elected
mayors in different contexts from across the globe. This book will
be a valuable resource for those studying or researching public
policy, public management, urban studies, politics, law, and
planning.
