Course Title:
Urban Governance and Environmental Policy
Course Number:
DSPO 25A25
Course Description:
Cities have become major actors on environmental policy. However, the crosscutting nature of environmental problems involves the city in a network of relationships with other levels of government and non-governmental actors. Therefore, the understanding of environmental policy in cities raises the need to unveil the “black box” of the different dimensions of governance (urban, metropolitan and multi-level). The aim of the course is to introduce students to the complexity of implementing public policies in urban contexts through the peculiarities of the environmental issues. For such purpose, the course will address the basic concepts of policy analysis, the different discussions and theories on governance and will orient them towards the specific case of environmental problems in different contexts.
