Synopsis

This text retains all the hallmarks of Governing States and Localities - a combination of smart scholarship with journalistic writing, the effective deployment of the comparative method as an analytic approach, and the well-developed features that help students compare state and localities: Difference that Makes a Difference, Policy in Practice, Local Focus, and States under Stress – but focuses on the core topics and provides students with a manageable resource.
