Abstract

This report presents case study analysis of multicommunity collaboration in three midwestern areas--Nebraska, Michigan, and Alberta, Canada. Although the multicommunity collaboration strategy shows promise and has theoretical and intuitive support, the strategy is relatively untested. For example, none of the efforts has resulted in a reverse in population decline, and collaboration does not necessarily result in increased local capacity. The authors offer insight from the perspectives of economics, regional planning, political science, and sociology.
