The last decade has seen a dramatic increase in political and ideological conflict in local government. This book analyzes this context and examines both the operation of elected local authorities and the rise of a complex and fragmented non-directly elected local governement. It examines key issues in detail and concludes with a critical assessment of theories of the local state and an examination of future trends.
