520			_aUrban Policy in Practice is a detailed, up-to-date account of urban policy in Britain. With a focus on local government, it combines a study of policy in practice with a critical assessment of recent developments. Using a wide range of examples, Tim Blackman shows how policies and services are responding to today's urban problems, stressing in particular the need for corporate strategies, democratic control and sustainable development. The book includes a clear and detailed study of local government finance and an analysis of the growing role of research in urban policy and public administration.
