Governing citiespolitics and policy /[electronic resource] :by Madeleine Pill. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2021. - xi, 183 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter One: Questions about cities -- Chapter Two: What is a city and why do they matter? -- Chapter Three: How and by whom are cities governed? -- Chapter Four: What policies and strategies arise? -- Chapter Five: What happens at different scales? -- Chapter Six: What are citizens doing? -- Chapter Seven: Futures for governing cities.

"In weaving critical and comparative perspectives throughout a very lively and accessible exploration of urban governance and policy, Madeleine Pill's book is a significant achievement. It will reward students at all levels for years to come, especially those who study cities for their political vibrancy and transformative potential." - Professor Jonathan Davies, De Montfort University, UK "Governing Cities provides students across planning, public policy, politics and geography the conceptual tools to understand how cities are governed, and how they could be governed in more equitable, democratic and citizen-centred ways. Its use of historical and contemporary examples from a diverse set of countries means that it will become foundational for urban studies teaching and learning worldwide." - Professor Robyn Dowling, University of Sydney, Australia "This is not just another public policy textbook. Governing Cities is an exploration of theory and practice. The reader is invited to consider how to understand politics and policymaking in relation to cities and how to improve them both. As such, it presents an ambitious discussion of the history, role, and governance of cities, which informs how to engage in urban politics to address the future of cities in relation to crises such as climate change and pandemics. It is a great example of how to make the study of policy jump off the page into real life." - Paul Cairney, University of Stirling, UK "This is the book so many of us critically-minded urbanists have been waiting for! A clear, comprehensive, and refreshingly critical introduction to the governance of cities, urbanism, and the possibilities of equitable and just urban social change. Completely accessible to undergraduate students, yet analytically sophisticated and in-depth enough to also serve as a foundational text for graduate students." - David Imbroscio, University of Louisville, USA This textbook helps us understand the political and policy-based challenges of how to equitably govern cities. It poses critical questions - about how cities are governed, by whom and for whom - and draws from a wide range of urban scholarship. The 'how' covers urban politics and the policy instruments which result. The 'by whom' addresses power relations within and beyond the city. The 'for whom' centres equity and the role of citizens and collective action in how we are governed. In addressing these questions, the book provides an overview of the core theories of urban politics and governance, explores what happens at different scales, and examines new forms of citizen activism. It is a unique introduction to students, policymakers and practitioners who want to understand and seek to improve urban politics and policy. Madeleine Pill is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Urban Studies and Planning at the University of Sheffield, UK.
