{"product_id":"9781138373860","title":"Municipalities and Finance : A Sourcebook for Capacity Building (Municipal Capacity Building Series)","description":"\u003cp\u003eFinance is a critical issue for municipal governments around the world, and a major constraint on the delivery of pro-poor services at the local level. In many countries, decentralisation has brought the issue of municipal finance to the fore. This sourcebook provides a framework for analysing municipal finance capacity and ways of addressing financial constraints.The ideas come from real-life innovative practice in four countries - India, Brazil, Kenya and Uganda - with additional examples from elsewhere. Emphasis is given to how those innovations and improvements were developed and sustained. The book identifies a strategic framework for diagnosing municipal finance capacity and focusing financial goals. It applies the analysis to a number of critical areas of municipal finance including local taxes, charges for services, budgeting, cost control, accounting reforms and investment finance. This is the third in a series of capacity-building sourcebooks that includes Focusing Partnerships: A Sourcebook for Municipal Capacity Building in Public-Private Partnerships and Municipalities and Community Participation: A Sourcebook for Capacity Building.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42809726861387,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":8756.74,"currency_code":"THB","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0641\/0023\/7387\/files\/9781138373860-1.jpg?v=1785000051","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.co.th\/products\/9781138373860","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Thailand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
