At a theoretical level, it explores the potential for a community dimension to local governance, that is, a strategic influence for comminties within locla power strucutres. It is argued that the nature of involvement can be explicated by considering three concepts: power ( as expressed by urban regime theory), parcipation and partnership. The paper explores these three broad themes and then focuses on the particular issues pertaining to community involvement in partnership working. Building on this framework, the paper develops a model - a "whell of involvement"- for analysing the effectiveness of community involvement to be `quantified by the use of a simple questionare survey. It provides a tool for academic researches and practitioners concerned with evaluating partnerships to begin to explore the quality and level of community involvement in the process of urban renewal. The results of an analysis of two regeneration partnerships are presented as an illustration of the efficacy of the evaluative technique
