Global, national and subnational change (political, economic,
social and demographic) are forcing local governments to search,
reactively or proactively, for alternative organizational patterns
and management styles. This book explores different approaches
toward local government reorientation in selected Western countries
as well as the 'reinvention' of local government in Eastern Europe.
Eight national case-studies (U.S., Canada, U.K., Germany, Norway,
Israel, the Czech Republic and Russia) provide the empirical basis.
From a theoretical point of view, the book exposes three main
critical factors: the range of policy options facing local
governments (strategic choice), their organizational capabilities
to cope with major environmental shifts (strategic capabilities),
and their capacity for organizational learning (including
programmed experimentation, innovation and creativity).
