A policy-focused approach to understanding the role of interest groups in US municipal governments.
Local politics in the United States once seemed tranquil compared to the divisiveness and dysfunction of the country's national politics. Those days have passed. As multiple wide-ranging crises have thrust America's local governments into the spotlight, they have also exposed policy failures and systemic problems that have mounted for years. While issues such as policing and the cost of housing are debated nationally, much of the policymaking surrounding these issues occurs locally. In Local Interests, Sarah F. Anzia explores how local governments-and the interest groups that try to influence them-create the policies that drive the national conversation: policing, economic development, housing, and challenges of taxing and spending.
