This book demonstrates both successes and failures in attempts to get closer to the ideal of good urban governance in cities in North-America, Europe, and Asia. It presents a value menu and deliberately does not come up with â€œone best wayâ€? for improving urban governance. Good urban governance is presented as a balancing act, an interplay between government, business and civil society in which the core values need careful and timely attention. The authors address questions such as â€œWhat is deemed â€œgoodâ€? in urban governance, and how is it being searched for?â€?, and â€œWhat (re)configurations of interactions between government, private sector and civil society are evolving, and to what results?â€?.
