Title
City Management In Developing Countries: An Institutional Development Perspective,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The challenge of rapid urbanisation and its demands for infrastructure and services, which confront every local government in the developing world, is met by this book's analysis and conclusions. The text does so by highlighting some general principles to guide the institutional development (ID) process in relation to city management; these principles being designed to encourage both theorists and practitioners to discover solutions to city management in their parts of the developing world. The book concludes with a synthesis of city management and its ID imperatives; captured in measurable frameworks to test the extent of integration, the level of decentralisation and the chance of sustainability and selfdevelopment in city management. While the first part of the book is theoretical, its heart lies in efforts to convert theory into practice. Local government practitioners know that the hardest part is to achieve performance in infrastructure and service provision, for development.
