Views of the City with publications such as: Seeing the Light: Next steps for City Regions; Living with Regions: Making multi-level governance work; and Evolution and Devolution: How regions strengthen our towns and cities.

Views of the City: Can city regions find their place? continues this dialogue by bringing together a collection of essays analysing the progress to date and the challenges facing the city-region debate in the coming months. The contributors provide a range of informed views from local government, regional and national bodies.

This collection examines issues of local leadership; governance arrangements; bottom-up formulation of a city-region; the relationship city-regions can have with RDAs; and whether city-regions could and should do more than promote economic growth and regeneration.
