Derived from a series of studies of LGs in multilevel systems, this article examines key patterns of cross-agency administration. First, administrative intergovernmental relations (IGR) are defined. Then common trends in local governments in their IGR arenas are identified. Next, changing managerial paradigms in outward as well as inward directions are introduced. Then a series of managerial challenges, including system development, IGR politics, collaborative knowledge development, netwwork management, and interoperability are introduced. A research agenda for multilevel system local governments in IGR in the governance era concludes the article. - Reproduced.  aPublic administration  aLocal government  aAmerican Review of Public Administration  aN  a104978  c104973d104973  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 44, Issue no: 4spAR105438r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
