This book focuses on the growing problems of governance in the United States and on potential means of alleviating them. The prob- lems are familiar: more single-issue politics and gridlock in Congress, more breakdowns in administrative control and accountability within the executive branch, and more litigation over public policy in the courts—as well as persistently low levels of public trust in the federal government since the 1960s. Relatively few Americans, however, have appreciated the potential of community-based initiatives to help re- solve some problems of governance.

In both countries, the early years of transition were associated with fiscal decentralization. In each of the transition economies, fiscal decentralization was a central piece of economic policy reform, for, as reforming economies became more decentralized and market-based, the public finances became the primary instrument for supplying public goods, protecting vulnerable members of society, and maintaining growth and stability. Yet, while fiscal decentralization fostered rapid growth in China, in Russia, de facto fiscal decentralization had dire consequences.

Public policy studies in the past have tended to emphasize domestic policy rather than cross-national policy. This has been especially true of American policy studies, which tend to be especially nation-bound. This is also true, to some extent, of policy studies in France, Russia, China, Brazil, and elsewhere.

However, scientific knowledge has rapidly changed as new technologies and new insights into the complexity of environment–health interactions have emerged.
