Souther, Jonathan Mark. 2017. Believing in Cleveland: Managing Decline in the "Best Location in the Nation". Urban Life, Landscape, and Policy. Philadelphia: Temple University Press. Believing in Cleveland chronicles how city leaders used imagery and rhetoric to combat and, at times, accommodate urban and economic decline. Souther explores Cleveland's downtown revitalization efforts, its neighborhood renewal and restoration projects, and its fight against deindustrialization.

Voinovich, George V. 2017. Empowering the Public-Private Partnership: the Future of America's Local Government. Athens: Ohio University Press. 96 pp. In the early 1980s, under the leadership of Mayor George V. Voinovich, Cleveland went from financial default to being named "American's Comeback City." This turnaround happened in only a few years, and it's something from which Cleveland still benefits. In fact, the public-private partnership, or P3, model that Voinovich pioneered, has since become the gold standard for cities seeking to maximize resources. Before his death in June 2016, Voinovich developed this handbook, a how-to manual that not only explains the technical aspects of creating these partnerships but also describes in depth how the private sector can be a powerful agent to improve the operations of local government.
