Visions of Urban Reform: Comparing English and U.S. Strategies for Improving City Government

We focus on the politics of ideas, identifying four common visions of urban reform: efficient public interest management, improved representation, local political leadership, and metropolitan-wide governance. National pressure groups, locality effects, and the status of city charters and council constitutions are key fac…

The depression of the 1930s brought forth added domestic spending and limited categorical grants to cities. Concern over the decline of the central city in the 1950s resulted in more broadly based programs in the form of urban renewal. An important response to the civil rights and minority crises of the…
City Managers and City Councils: Perceptions of the Division of Authority
ONTEMPORARY discussions of policy making in council-manager governments conclude that the city manager has an important influence on policy. The notion of the city manager as community leader rather than neutral civil servant is verified by numerous empirical studies of the policy making process and espoused by the managers' professional organization, the International City Management Association.l Discussions of operations of council-manager gov…
