They discuss such topics as strategies of influence in dealing with fiscal issues, improving collaboration by federal agencies, governance implications of the Bush administration's "war on terror," collaborative regional networked systems for governance, the economic crisis and the emergence of new state government management models, citizen engagement and the Internet, and changes to governance from the Obama administration." -- Provided by publisher
