Public values for cities and city policy
Public values for cities and city policy[electronic resource] /by Jari Stenvall ... [et al.]. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2022. - ix, 264 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

1 Introduction -- 2 Public Values approach -- 3 Public Values, cities and services -- 4 Ethics, Values and Public Value -- 5 Urbanization and Public Values -- 6 Knowledge-Based Community and Public Values -- 7 Economic development policy and Public Values -- 8 Digitalisation and Public Values -- 9 City Governance -- 10 City Leadership -- 11 Citizen capabilities for making meaningful cities -- 12 Conclusions.

This book provides a framework for understanding the creation of public value in urban environments. The ability of cities to produce value is related to their capacity to generate meaningful resources for city residents and workers that enable them to craft meaningfulness in life and work. Meaningfulness and public value require new ways of leading and developing city governance. This extends to designing inclusive structures and processes for people to grapple with the meanings and values underpinning public value creation. A public value framework demands that city governance goes beyond ordinary government to considerations of how to involve city residents and workers in creating and maintaining the common good. The common good is determined by an inclusive associational life characterized by deliberative processes and opportunities for social contribution. When acting upon their entitlements to make the city, urban residents and workers - as members of diverse civic, public and private organizations - co-create the meanings that facilitate the collective action necessary to translate values into value. The experience of cooperating for the common good produces meanings that people can adopt into a sense that their lives have significance and purpose. This is particularly relevant to understanding how to motivate just and inclusive sustainability transitions, especially as cities recover from the Covid-19 pandemic. Focusing on cities and urban policy, the main theme of this book is to elaborate on public values for cities and city policies, and to further develop the concept of the meaningful city. This book aims to provide new kinds of tools for city development that can help them co-create resilience against future shocks.
