Current policy encourages 'partnerships' - between statutory
organisations and professionals; public and private sectors; with
voluntary organisations and local communities. But is this
collaborative discourse really as distinctive as the Labour
Government claims? How far do contemporary partnerships exemplify
an approach to governing which is based on networks (as distinct
from hierarchies and markets)? Partnerships, New Labour and the
governance of welfare: provides an up-to-date critical analysis of
partnerships; addresses the highly topical theme of 'partnerships'
as the means of achieving joined-up government; presents empirical
evidence from a wide range of welfare partnerships; examines the
relationships between local welfare partnerships and the management
of those partnerships by central government; reveals the imbalance
of power which characterises many contemporary partnerships. * It
is essential reading for academics and students of contemporary
social and public policy and for those with an interest in networks
and other theories of welfare governance.
