Description - Intergovernmental Relations: State and Local Challenges in the Twenty-First Century by Jonathan M. Fisk

  • Examines the sources behind state-local conflict to better understand where critical intergovernmental relationships may be breaking down
  • Offers a framework for understanding possible sources behind state-local conflict, with a recognition that intergovernmental relationships have historical roots, are place-based, and dependent on context
  • Defines the basic institutional structures and offices and addresses the intergovernmental legal environment
  • Explores concrete issues that have become ensnared in intergovernmental conflict via case studies including environmental (plastic bags, climate change), social and constitutional (confederate statues, transgender bathrooms), and economic (living wage, affordable housing) to name a few
  • Identifies solutions and policy tools that build upon the strengths of state and local governments, mitigate conflicts, and improve the quality of life for citizens
