This innovative book sheds light on two key questions at the
forefront of government-nonprofit partnerships: How are nonprofits
performing? And does the involvement of nonprofits in a public
service add public value? International contributors approach these
questions through the conceptual lens of the "hollow state",
highlighting the diminished role of government and the implications
of the growing reliance on nonprofits in delivering public service.
Through a set of empirical studies in public education, public
health, urban sustainability, public parks and public social
welfare services, chapters identify contributing factors to the
success of nonprofits in mitigating public problems through
performance measurement. Identifying challenges encountered by
nonprofits in their roles as government partners, as well as the
challenges posed to public organizations in generating nonprofit
accountability, this insightful book takes stock of performance and
public value of the hollow state. This methodologically-rigorous
book is critical reading for scholars, researchers and students of
public governance and public management, particularly those
focusing on the long-term effects of the New Public Management. Its
practical insights will also benefit policymakers, as well as
managers of nonprofits interested in the implications of new
partnerships with government bodies.
