Evaluating the Effectiveness of Metropolitan Area Management: Theoretical and Practical Aspects

The effectiveness of metropolitan area management has not yet been exten­sively studied. The article proposes to evaluate it in relation to the inter-com­munal cooperation model based on three components, i.e., evaluate the overail effectiveness of managing the area’s development as the degree to which the goals of agglomeration interaction are achieved, “political" effective­ness of decision-making and implementation, and “managerial" effectiveness of agglomeration projects implementation. Along with the theoretical justifi­cation of the approach, the article presents the research results on the effecti­veness of managing metropolitan areas in Chelyabinsk Oblast.
