Description

American City Politics offers a comprehensive examination of how cities govern themselves within the United States federal system, beginning with an overview of urban political structures and the relationship between municipalities and higher levels of government. The study progresses through four detailed case studies examining the distinct political roles of mayors, managers, political bosses, and administrator-entrepreneurs within city governance. Madgwick's analysis extends beyond American borders with comparative reflections on British local government, providing international perspective on urban political dynamics. Originally published in 1970, this Routledge Library Editions volume remains a foundational text for understanding the historical development and institutional frameworks that shape city politics. The book combines theoretical framework with practical examples, making it valuable for students of political science, public administration, and urban studies seeking insight into the mechanics of municipal government.
