This book presents the findings of a significant Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) project that delved into the realm of urban austerity governance across eight diverse cities worldwide. Athens, Baltimore, Barcelona, Melbourne, Dublin, Leicester, Montréal, and Nantes served as the focal points of this comprehensive investigation. Through comparative reflections, it explores the rich tapestry of experiences associated with collaborative governance and uncovers the inherent limitations that accompany such endeavors.
This international collaborative, spanning various social sciences, delves into the intricate dynamics of citizens, activists, and local states engaging in collaborative efforts to shape just cities. It examines the emergence and evolution of egalitarian collaborative governance strategies, offering innovative ideas and tools to expand the reach of emancipatory governance practices. Moreover, the book paints a hopeful picture of cities that can transcend the constraints of austerity and neoliberalism, embracing alternative paths toward sustainable and inclusive development.
The findings presented in this book shed light on the complex interplay between collaborative governance, social inequality, and urban development. It highlights the challenges and opportunities that arise when different stakeholders come together to address urban challenges, emphasizing the importance of inclusivity, equity, and sustainability in the pursuit of just cities. By examining the experiences of these eight cities, the book provides valuable insights into the potential for collaborative governance to foster positive change and promote a more equitable and prosperous future for urban communities worldwide.
