Leadership in a small town  Cover Image Book Book

Leadership in a small town / Aaron Wildavsky ; with a new introduction by Nelson W. Polsby.

Summary:

"The issues discussed in this volume are familiar to many towns. They range from controversies about the building of a new water system to housing and zoning codes, from charity appeals to low-income housing, from nominations and elections to industrial development and off-street parking. Wildavsky draws parallels to other community studies and formulates general propositions in support of his thesis that American communities are pluralist. And ultimately, Wildavsky is optimistic that small towns foster citizen participation, giving the population more of a chance to direct its own future."--BOOK JACKET.
