The real work of many governments is done not in stately domed
capitols but by a network of federal and state officials working
with local governments and nongovernmental organizations to address
issues that cross governmental boundaries. "Managing within
Networks" analyzes the structure, operations, and achievements of
these public management networks that are trying to solve
intractable problems at the field level. It examines such areas as
transportation, economic and rural development, communications
systems and data management, water conservation, wastewater
management, watershed conservation, and services for persons with
developmental disabilities. Robert Agranoff draws a number of
innovative conclusions about what these networks do and how they do
it from data compiled on fourteen public management networks in
Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Nebraska, and Ohio. Agranoff identifies
four different types of networks based on their purposes and
observes the differences between network management and traditional
management structures and leadership. He notes how knowledge is
managed and value added within intergovernmental networks. This
volume is useful for students, scholars, and practitioners of
public management.
