Local politics has, however, lately been argued to have possibilities to affect its own development and its chances to achieve growth.

These factors serve as a starting point for this discussion where focus is on the possibilities to achieve growth on the local level and the politics that is used for this purpose.

The study is carried out with the qualitative method of a case study with the example of Dals-Eds municipality. (Less)
