First published in 1999, this book contains case studies of rail
transport policy-making in two UK Passenger Transport Authority
areas and reviews the factors informing such policy-making. It
contributes to transport geography by explaining why the actual
policies implemented in Starthclyde and Merseyside were pursued,
and to the continuing development of the political science theory
of 'the urban policy regime' by analysing the differences in policy
development attributable to the different 'city-regional'
(Strathclyde) and 'public choice' (Merseyside) geographical
structures of local governance. The book demonstrates that these
differences in the spatial organisation of local institutions play
a powerful role in determining the operation of the local 'regime'
of policy-makers, the form of final policy outputs, and the level
of public accountability achieved.
