The public debate is rife with polarized views of how to deliver
essential services such as education, health, and security. While
some tout privatization as a way to supplant bad governments,
others warn that private firms maximize profits at the expense of
socially oriented service attributes. In reality, all forms of
service delivery-public, private and hybrid public
private-collaborations-have merits and flaws. This book scrutinizes
the menu of delivery forms in public services and the conditions
that should make them work. It argues that privatization benefits
from capable government units committing to well-defined policy
objectives, mobilizing critical resources, and incentivizing
effective and inclusive delivery. Societies counting on capable
governments can also reject single solutions and experiment with
plural paths of improvement, where public and private organizations
co-exist and learn from each other. This book will appeal to
students, academics, managers and policy makers interested in
examining the public-private boundary and the many ramifications of
this focal issue.
