abstract = "This book is about local councillors. It presents the results of the third in a series of linked cross-national research projects on comparative urban and local governance research. All three projects have been undertaken by the {\textquoteleft}Euroloc{\textquoteright} research group – a network of academics with a focus on international comparative research in local government studies. After having concluded the {\textquoteleft}Udite Leadership Study{\textquoteright} on appointed municipal chief executive officers (see Klausen and Magnier 1998; Mouritzen and Svara 2002) and a comparative study on mayors (often referred to as the polleader project) (see B{\"a}ck et al. 2006), the research network addressed the largest number of political actors in local government, elected councillors.",
