But as these urban centers prosper, they increasingly confront significant constraints. In City Bound, Gerald E. Frug and David J. Barron address these limits in a new way. Based on a study of the differing legal structures of Boston, New York, Atlanta, Chicago, Denver, San Francisco, and Seattle, City Bound explores how state law determines what cities can and cannot do to raise revenue, control land use, and improve city schools.Frug and Barron show that state law can make it much easier for cities to pursue a global-city or a tourist-city agenda than to respond to the needs of middle-class residents or to pursue regional alliances. But they also explain that state law is often so outdated, and so rooted in an unjustified distrust of local decision making, that the legal process makes it hard for successful cities to develop and implement any coherent vision of their future. Their book calls not for local autonomy but for a new structure of state-local relations that would enable cities to take the lead in charting the future course of urban development. It should be of interest to everyone who cares about the future of American cities, whether political scientists, planners, architects, lawyers, or simply citizens. 606 $aState-local relations$zUnited States 606 $aMunicipal home rule$zUnited States 606 $aMunicipal government$zUnited States 606 $aMunicipal corporations$zUnited States 606 $aUrban policy$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aState-local relations 615 0$aMunicipal home rule 615 0$aMunicipal government 615 0$aMunicipal corporations 615 0$aUrban policy 676 $a320.8/50973 700 $aFrug$b Gerald E.$f1939-$0233295 701 $aBarron$b David J$01049165 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460166503321 996 $aCity bound$92477940 997 $aUNINA
