"The fundamental premise of regionalism is that a region's central city and suburbs may seem to have very different interests, but are in fact linked in a relationship that should not be ignored. Pressing environmental, social, and governance problems cannot be solved by independent jurisdictions acting alone." "Drawing on the different backgrounds and experiences of the contributors, the essays in this monograph explain how regionalism has played out in the past, how policies shape places, and the possibilities and limits of regional action."--Jacket
