Although collaborations for local and regional economic development
have been popular in recent years, it is not yet wholly clear when
or how such efforts bring successful outcomes. Using an integrative
conceptual framework for collaborative governance, this innovative
collection provides a systematic and interdisciplinary analysis of
real-world collaborative networks for local and regional economic
development. Focusing on a wide range collaborative economic
development in diverse cities and regions in USA, Canada, Germany,
India, Italy, and South Korea, the chapters explore what forces
motivate the emergence of collaborative economic development
efforts. Each chapter explores the factors which contribute to or
hinder collaborative governance efforts for economic development
and identifies lessons for overcoming challenges to creating
communities that are economically resilient, environmentally
sustainable and politically engaged in the era of globalization. By
focusing on collaborative governance and its implications for the
ability of policies to meet the challenges of the 21st century, it
provides lessons for researchers in public management, urban
planning/development, public policy, and political science, as well
as practitioners interested in promoting local economic
development.
Scholarship is a multi-generational collective enterprise with a
commitment to advancing knowledge, inspiring reflection, and
facilitating stronger neighborhoods, cities and countries. This
book explicitly adopts this lens as a recognition of the
contributions of Prof. Terry Cooper to scholarship and practice,
and as a mechanism to connect the past to the present and
ultimately the future of scholarship in public ethics and citizen
engagement. This "multi-generational" approach is designed to
reveal the persistent and future ongoing need to engage as a
scholarly and practitioner community with these questions. The book
is broken into three main sections: citizenship and neighborhood
governance, public service ethics and citizenship, and global
explorations of citizenship and ethics. Unique in this collection
is the explicit linkage across the main focus areas of citizenship
and ethics, as well as the comparative and global context in which
these issues are explored. Cases and data are examined from the
United States, Chile, Thailand, India, China, Georgia, and Myanmar.
Ultimately, it is made clear through each individual chapter and
the collective whole that research on citizenship and ethics within
public affairs and service has a rich history, remains critical to
the strengthening of public institutions today, and will only
increase in global significance in the years ahead.
