Focusing on Greece in particular, it examines 164 municipalities involved in more than 250 European city networks to shed light on the various factors that affect cities capacities to act as international actors. The book demonstrates that the participation of Greek municipalities in European city networks has entailed changes to local political structures, policies and procedures, as well as the strengthening of a European identity and the creation of long-term partnerships. At the same time, these changes have often clashed with bureaucratic traditions and unfavorable economic conditions, which have mitigated the reformatory potential of European city networking. Providing important insights into city diplomacy and Europeanization, the book will appeal to scholars and students of public administration, European integration and political science, as well as professionals and practitioners. . 001469632 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001469632 650_0 $$aMunicipal government$$zEurope. 001469632 650_0 $$aCities and towns$$xPolitical aspects$$zEurope. 001469632 650_0 $$aMunicipal government$$zGreece$$vCase studies. 001469632 655_7 $$aCase studies.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01423765 001469632 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001469632 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKARVOUNIS, ANTONIOS.$$tCITY DIPLOMACY AND THE EUROPEANISATION OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT.$$d[Place of publication not identified] : PALGRAVE MACMILLAN, 2023$$z3031294998$$w(OCoLC)1371399906 001469632 852__ $$bebk 001469632 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-29500-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001469632 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1469632$$pGLOBAL_SET 001469632 980__ $$aBIB 001469632 980__ $$aEBOOK 001469632 982__ $$aEbook 001469632 983__ $$aOnline 001469632 994__ $$a92$$bISE
