Kritik
"The aim of the book is ambitious, and the authors approach the challenge of comparing different types of local reforms across countries in different ways. ... This book contains both detailed information and insightful analyses of a range of local reforms. It certainly adds to our knowledge and I would recommend it to anyone interested in public sector reforms." (Louise Skoog, Local Government Studies, Vol. 43 (3), March, 2017)mehr
