This volume investigates how local and regional governments navigated the economic instability of the late 2000s and the subsequent fiscal constraints. Editors David Bailey and Caroline Chapain, both established scholars in regional development and industrial policy, curate a collection of essays that examine the intersection of global economic shocks and localized administrative responses. The text provides a comparative framework to understand how different municipal structures in the UK, Europe, Canada, and Australia adapted their strategies to mitigate the impacts of the recession on businesses, workers, and public services.
