In this paper we enrich the concept of place-based leadership. Building on social movement theory, our analysis of the clean growth mission development in Greater Manchester (UK) reveals the role of place-based leadership in mobilising and coordinating framing processes that linked the global climate change problem with local challenges, articulated local benefits of its resolution, and provided justification for local change efforts. We draw on theories of the policy process (i.e. Multiple Streams Framework) to shed light on how place-based leaders frame problems and solutions strategically to engender policy change. While framing processes had an impact on local policy agendas, we do not find evidence of accelerated implementation, pointing to the important distinctions between problem ownership and solution ownership in the context of wicked problems. Our findings contribute to the ongoing debate on the role of multi-level governance and localised agency in problem-based policymaking for sustainable regional development.

重塑后工业地区的艰苦战斗：大曼彻斯特的“清洁增长”使命案例


在本文中，我们丰富了基于地方的领导的概念。以社会运动理论为基础，我们对大曼彻斯特（英国）清洁增长使命发展的分析揭示了基于地方的领导在动员和协调将全球气候变化问题与当地挑战联系起来的框架过程中的作用，阐明了其解决方案的当地利益，并为当地变革努力提供了理由。我们借鉴政策过程理论（即多流框架）来阐明基于地方的领导者如何战略性地构建问题和解决方案以产生政策变革。虽然构建流程对地方政策议程产生了影响，但我们没有找到加速实施的证据，这表明在棘手问题的背景下，问题所有权和解决方案所有权之间存在重要区别。我们的研究结果有助于正在进行的关于多层次治理和地方机构在基于问题的可持续区域发展政策制定中的作用的辩论。
