The global trend toward urbanization has brought with it economic, environmental, social, and regional demands that have severe implications for local governments and their territories. As a result, changing the areal jurisdiction of this most basic level of government has become a persistent and pressing challenge around the globe. This collection examines the legal and regulatory procedures involved in such municipal restructuring. Case studies from eight nations -- the United States, Canada, Spain, Germany, Israel, Korea, China, and South Africa -- investigate how and why local governments have been enlarged in scope and reduced in number within each country. Four key aspects are examined: the geography of the local government boundary problem, the procedures associated with boundary reform, the roles of institutions and actors in boundary reform, and the implications for urban and regional governance. Redrawing Local Government Boundaries offers a broad theoretical understanding of local government boundary reform and informs the wider scholarly discussion about institutional change, state structures, and the areal jurisdiction of local governments. The first international comparative study of local boundary reform, it will be a valuable reference for scholars and students of political science, public administration, geography, urban studies, and urban planning. 606 $aLocal government$vCase studies 606 $aBoundaries$vCase studies 606 $aComparative government 606 $aAdministration locale$vCas, Etudes de 606 $aFrontieres$vCas, Etudes de 615 0$aLocal government 615 0$aBoundaries 615 0$aComparative government. 615 6$aAdministration locale 615 6$aFrontieres 676 $a320.8 701 $aMeligrana$b John$f1966-$01996920 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911091666903321 996 $aRedrawing local government boundaries$94777507 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04403nam 2200613 a 450 001 9911144670703321 005 20260415135523.0 010 $a3-11-026891-4 024 7 $a10.1515/9783110268911 035 $a(CKB)2670000000338015 035 $a(EBL)912850 035 $a(OCoLC)829462145 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000994081 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11563742 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000994081 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10956817 035 $a(PQKB)11219892 035 $a(DE-B1597)173737 035 $a(OCoLC)979584873 035 $a(DE-B1597)9783110268911 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL912850 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10661411 035 $a(Perlego)651294 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC912850 035 $a(EXLCZ)992670000000338015 100 $a20130307d2013 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aHandbook of flavoproteins $eoxidases, dehydrogenases and related systems.

This comprehensive two volume set provides an overview of all aspects of contemporary research in this important class of enzymes. Topics treated include flavoproteins involved in energy generation, signal transduction and electron transfer (including respiration); oxygen activation by flavoproteins; the biology and biochemistry of complex flavoproteins; flavin and flavoprotein photochemistry/photophysics as well as biotechnological applications of flavoproteins. Recent developments in this field include new structures (including those of large membrane-integral electron transfer complexes containing FMN or FAD), elucidation of the role of flavoproteins in cell signalling pathways (including both phototaxis and the circadian cycle) and important new insights into the reaction mechanisms of flavin-containing enzymes. This volume focussing on oxidases, dehydrogenases and related systems is an essential reference for all researchers in biochemistry, chemistry, photochemistry and photophysics working on flavoenzymes. 606 $aFlavoproteins 615 0$aFlavoproteins. 676 $a572/.791 686 $aWD 5050$2rvk 701 $aHille$b Russ 701 $aMiller$b Susan M 701 $aPalfey$b Bruce 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911144670703321 997 $aUNINA
