Description

This book is about directly elected mayors; political leaders, elected directly by citizens, who head multi-functional local government authorities. The book examines the contexts, features and debates around the model, and how in practice political leadership is exercised through it. Drawing on examples from Europe, the US, and Australasia, contributors examine the impacts, practices, and debates of mayoral leadership in various 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 model. The work draws on a variety of sources, including both qualitative and quantitative approaches, to build a picture of views of and on mayors in different contexts from across the globe. The result is a valuable resource for those studying or researching public policy, public management, urban studies, politics, law, and planning.
