Over the decades these "edge cities" have become permanent features of the regional landscape. In Post-Suburbia, historian Jon Teaford charts the emergence of these areas and explains why and how they developed. Teaford begins by describing the adaptation of traditional units of government to the ideals and demands of the changing world along the metropolitan fringe. He shows how these post-suburban municipalities had to fashion a government that perpetuated the ideals of small-scale village life and yet, at the same time, provided for a large tax base to pay for needed municipal services. To tell this story, Teaford follows six counties that were among the pioneers of the post-suburban world: Suffolk and Nassau counties in New York; Oakland County, Michigan; DuPage County, Illinois; Saint Louis County, Missouri; and Orange County, California. Although county governments took on new coordinating functions, Teaford concludes, the many municipalities along the metropolitan fringe continued to retain their independence and authority. Underlying this balance of power was the persistent adherence to the long-standing suburban tradition of grassroots rule. Despite changes in the economy and appearance of the metropolitan fringe, this ideology retained its appeal among post-suburban voters, who rebelled at the prospect of thorough centralization of authority. Thus the fringe may have appeared post-suburban, but traditional suburban attitudes continued to influence the course of governmental development. 606 $aAdministration locale$zEtats-Unis$2ram 606 $aComtes$zE?tats-Unis$xCas, E?tudes de$2ram 606 $aBanlieues$xAdministration$zE?tats-Unis$xCas, E?tudes de$2ram 606 $aRelations gouvernement central-collectivités locales$zE?tats-Unis$2ram 606 $aPolitique urbaine$zE?tats-Unis$2ram 606 $aSuburbanisatie$2gtt 606 $aLokaal beleid$2gtt 606 $aSuburbs$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01136941 606 $aCounty government$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00881490 606 $aBanlieues$zE?tats-Unis$xCas, E?tudes de 606 $aAdministration de comte$zE?tats-Unis$vCas, E?tudes de 606 $aSuburbs$zUnited States$vCase studies 606 $aCounty government$zUnited States$vCase studies 607 $aUnited States$2fast 615 7$aAdministration locale 615 7$aComtes$xCas, E?tudes de. 615 7$aBanlieues$xAdministration$xCas, E?tudes de. 615 7$aRelations gouvernement central-collectivités locales 615 7$aPolitique urbaine 615 10$aSuburbanisatie. 615 10$aLokaal beleid. 615 0$aSuburbs. 615 0$aCounty government. 615 7$aBanlieues$xCas, E?tudes de. 615 7$aAdministration de comte 615 0$aSuburbs 615 0$aCounty government 676 $a320.8/0973 700 $aTeaford$b Jon C$01095409 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910524704903321 996 $aPost-Suburbia$92784178 997 $aUNINA
