City-regions are areas where the daily journeys for work, shopping and leisure frequently cross administrative boundaries. They are seen as engines of the national economy, but are also facing congestion and disparities. Thus, all over the world, governments attempt to increase problem-solving capacities in city-regions by institutional reform and a shift of functions.This book analyses the recent reforms and changes in the governance of city-regions in France, Germany and Italy. It covers themes such as the impact of austerity measures, territorial development, planning and state modernisation. The authors provide a systematic cross-country perspective on two levels, between six city-regions and between the national policy frameworks in these three countries. They use a solid comparative framework, which refers to the four dimensions functions, institutions and governance, ideas and space. They describe the course of the reforms, the motivations and the results, and consequently, they question the widespread metropolitan fever or resurgence of city-regions and provide a better understanding of recent changes in city-regional governance in Europe.The primary readership will be researchers and master students in planning, urban studies, urban geography, political science and governance studies, especially those interested in metropolitan regions and / or decentralisation. Due to the uniqueness of the work, the book will be of particular interest to scholars working on the comparative European dimension of territorial governance and planning.The Open Access version of this book, available at www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 4.0 license.

Written in a clear and concise style, this Modern Guide provides a timely overview and comparison of urban challenges and national urban policies in 13 European countries, addressing key issues such as housing, urban regeneration and climate change. A team of international contributors illustrate how gaps are emerging across Europe due to the significant shifts in urban programmes.The book provides an in-depth analysis into how the European Union influences policies at a national level within its member states and how these are implemented in terms of scope and objectives. It explores how this results in fewer commonalities between countries and the gap between the rise of international urban agendas and variegated national urban policies, examining whether a more bespoke approach is better than the traditional 'one size fits all'.This insightful book will be an important read for researchers of urban studies and public policy as well as scholars with an interest in urban and regional sociology.

The aim of this book is to investigate contemporary processes of metropolitan change and approaches to planning and governing metropolitan regions. To do so, it focuses on four central tenets of metropolitan change in terms of planning and governance: institutional approaches, policy mobilities, spatial imaginaries, and planning styles. The book’s main contribution lies in providing readers with a new conceptual and analytical framework for researching contemporary dynamics in metropolitan regions. It will chiefly benefit researchers and students in planning, urban studies, policy and governance studies, especially those interested in metropolitan regions.The relentless pace of urban change in globalization poses fundamental questions about how to best plan and govern 21st-century metropolitan regions. The problem for metropolitan regions—especially for those with policy and decision-making responsibilities—is a growing recognition that these spaces are typically reliant on inadequate urban-economic infrastructure and fragmented planning and governance arrangements. Moreover, as the demand for more ‘appropriate’—i.e., more flexible, networked and smart—forms of planning and governance increases, new expressions of territorial cooperation and conflict are emerging around issues and agendas of (de-)growth, infrastructure expansion, and the collective provision of services.

Wachsende gesellschaftliche Herausforderungen benotigen seitens der politischen und planerischen Steuerung ein erhohtes Mass an Variabilitat in den Verfahren und Instrumenten. Regionale Entwicklungssteuerung ist das Ergebnis des Zusammenspiels einer Vielzahl von Akteuren. Sie kann nur gelingen, wenn sie als Management von Interdependenzen angelegt wird. Um die dafur erforderliche Vielfalt der Planung im sich wandelnden Staat ging es Dietrich Furst in einem wesentlichen Teil seiner wissenschaftlichen Arbeit. Im Mittelpunkt seiner Festschrift stehen deswegen Fragen der Steuerung sowie Instrumente und Verfahren aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen.
Metropolitan Governance in Deutschland
Regieren in Ballungsräumen und neue Formen politischer Steuerung

Das Buch schildert die Grundproblematik des Regierens in Ballungsräumen und gibt einen Überblick über die dominierenden Paradigmen und Leitideen der letzten 60 Jahre, die jeweils die konkrete Gestaltung von Organisationsformen anleiteten. Ob und wie Governance-Arrangements in Ballungsräumen in der Lage sind, die besonderen Herausforderungen einer politischen Handlungskoordination zu erfüllen, verweist letztlich aber auf die Frage nach ihrer Effektivität. Dies wird an aktuellen Beispielen aus fünf Metropolregionen in Deutschland untersucht. Dabei wird auch die Frage der demokratischen Qualität adressiert. Das Buch ist damit sowohl für Praktiker als auch für Politikwissenschaftler interessant, die an institutionenpolitischen Fragen interessiert sind.
