This book provides a broad analysis of the important and ongoing issue of municipal self-governments' response to the Covid-19 pandemic in the Visegrad Group countries with the special emphasis on the post-pandemic recovery. Focusing on municipal self-governments of the V4 countries – Poland, Czechia, Hungary and Slovakia – fills a pressing publishing gap. The monograph provides answers to the question whether the response of municipal self-governments in the Visegrad Group countries fits into a specific model and what are the features of this response.
This book will be of key interest to scholars and students of Central and Eastern European politics and policies with particular emphasis on the V4 counties, local self-government, urban policies, crisis management, Covid-19 pandemic response and recovery. The volume will be of great interest to practitioners, namely the representatives of local self-governments, non-governmental organizations and private entities operating at the urban level.
