Municipal managers’ engagement in multi-level governance arrangements: An empirical analysis grounded in relational economic geography.

Highlights: [•] We study an intergovernmental network promoted by a provincial government agency. [•] This network is addressed to encourage the implementation of Local Agenda 21 (LA21). [•] We study the different effect on engagement of two key benefits that network promoters can boost. [•] Support benefits have a stronger effect on perceptions in relation to the specific LA21 tool. [•] Interaction benefits have a greater effect on social capital perceptions (network- and network members-related perceptions). [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
