Infrastructures are complex networks dominated by tight
interdependencies between technologies and institutions. These
networks supply services crucial to modern societies, services that
can be provided only if several critical functions are fulfilled.
This book proposes a theoretical framework with a set of concepts
to analyse rigorously how these critical functions require
coordination within the technological dimension as well as within
the institutional dimension. It also shows how fundamental the
alignment between these two dimensions is. It argues that this
alignment operates along different layers characterized
successively by the structure, governance and transactions that
connect technologies and institutions. These issues of coordination
and alignment, at the core of the book, are substantiated through
in-depth case studies of networks from the energy, water and
wastewater, and transportation sectors.
