Patterns of Local Autonomy in Europe[electronic resource] /by Andreas Ladner, Nicolas Keuffer, Harald Baldersheim, Nikos Hlepas, Pawel Swianiewicz, Kristof Steyvers, Carmen Navarro. - 1st ed. 2019. - XVI, 359 p. 59 illus.online resource. - Governance and Public Management,2524-728X. - Governance and Public Management,.

Chapter 1: What is local autonomy? -- Chapter 2: Measuring local autonomy -- Chapter 3: Legal foundations -- Chapter 4: Functional responsibilities -- Chapter 5: Financial control -- Chapter 6: Organisational choice -- Chapter 7: Administrative supervision -- Chapter 8: Vertical access -- Chapter 9: The Local Autonomy Index (LAI) -- Chapter 10: A new typology of local government? Beyond North-South and East-West -- Chapter 11: Who governs? Patterns of responsiveness and accountability -- Chapter 12: Roadmap to local autonomy? Drivers of variation -- Chapter 13: Blessings of local autonomy? Does it matter? For what? How? -- Chapter 14: Conclusions: Local Autonomy – patterns, dynamics and ambiguities.

This book considers local autonomy, measured as a multidimensional concept, from a cross-country comparative perspective, and examines how variations can be explained and what their consequences are. It fills a gap in the literature by providing a comprehensive study of the different components of local autonomy across a large number of countries, over time. It offers a theoretically saturated concept to measure local autonomy and applies it to 39 countries, including all 28 EU member states together with Albania, Georgia, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Macedonia, Moldova, Norway, Serbia, Switzerland Turkey and Ukraine, over a period of 25 years (1990-2014).
