520 |a Austerity has left local government struggling to meet the demands for local services. In this context, this book asks 'what are the fundamental principles that should guide decision-making by local councillors and officers' It seeks to move the agenda from 'what works' to 'what should local government do' and 'how will its policies impact on social justice and local democracy'. Reclaiming local democracy examines the politics of human need and argues that local government should provide a voice for those that lack power. It avoids the dry, familiar debate about what structures and powers loca.
