The Collaborative Public Manager - New Ideas for the Twenty-First Century (Paperback)

Collaborative public management is a concept that describes the process of government and the private sector working together in multi-organizational arrangements to solve problems that cannot be solved (or easily solved) by single government organizations. Collaborative public management may also include participatory governance: the active involvement of citizens in government decision-making. This book presents current state-of-the-art empirical research and conceptualizing about collaborative public management. The contributors are top scholars in public management and public policy. The book examines how recent case studies have produced evolutions in public management theory, particularly since the publication of Robert Agranoff and Michael McGuire's award-winning book Collaborative Public Management: New Stratagies for Local Governments (Georgetown University Press, 2003). The thirteen chapters in the book are primarily organized by major topics in collaborative public management (e.g. how governments choose collaborative partners) and describe various recent cases that have advanced our understanding of the topic. One chapter (Chapter 6) provides a new case study.
