摘要
This article presents an overview of local government studies and particularly of recent developments. It looks fir st of all at the changing social and economic factors which influence the operation of local government. Globalization, political and institutional changes, demographic trends-all these structure the environment of local government. The article then looks at the changes in local government, best understood as a movement towards local governance. Finally, the article raises questions about the kinds of local government that would be the most desirable and most appropriate given the changes that are taking place.
