handle is hein.journals/natmnr78 and id is 1 raw text is: NATIONAL CIVIC REVIEW Building Successful Communities Volume 78, Number 1 January-February, 1989 STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS Reduced access of municipalities to the federal fisc during the 1980s has forced localitieN to seek new and creative ways of meeting their ever-increasing needs. To a great extent, however, the hoopla associated with communities' attempts to preserve their slice of a continuously dwindling pie has overshadowed some of the innovations, including strategic, intercommunity partnerships. Editor's Com m ent ......................................... 3 The Emergence of Intercommunity Partnerships in the 1980s by W illiam R. D odge ...................................... 5 Contraction of federal funding has been accompanied by reduced federal guidance. Local governments bear the dual burden of both designing and funding projects. The interjurisdictional partnerships of the 1980s are characterized by two things: an encouraging creativity in addressing regional issues, and a burgeoning involvement of county government as a major convening and administrative force. Community Problem Solving: There Are No Interjurisdictional Panaceas by Stephen C. Forman ..................................... 15 Commitment to regional problem solving requires regional citizenship. Suburbanization and widespread preference for the flexibility of local control, however, tend to counter the needed spirit of partnership. Regionalism seems an ideal approach to certain problems; the question is, are we ready for it. Building University-Community Partnerships: Increasing Urban Competitiveness by D avid C. Sweet......................................... 25 Universities, in cooperation with the private and public sectors, can make significant contributions to addressing both the social and service- delivery problems of a region, while creating and reinforcing a regional culture of competitiveness and preparedness for a challenging world economy. In the early years of public higher education, formal patterns of educational-agricultural cooperation were common. Today's urban, information-based economy can benefit much from the educational and technological resources of colleges and universities.
