Traditional governance, even when it is functioning effectively and
fairly, often produces clear winners and clear losers, leaving
smoldering resentments that flare up whenever there is a shift in
the balance of power. Over the past two and a half decades, a new
style of governance has arisen to disrupt some of that
winner-takes-all dynamic, offering parties a means to collectively
navigate their interests in a highly focused and democratic way.
Collaborative Governance is the first comprehensive practice-based
textbook on the topic, presenting a solid grounding in relevant
theory while also focusing on case studies, process design, and
practical tools. Bringing together theory and tools from the fields
of negotiation and mediation, as well as political science and
public administration, this book introduces students and
practitioners to the theory of collaborative governance in the
context of practical applications. Coverage includes: * A
connection of the practices of collaborative governance with the
field's theoretical underpinnings; * Tools for students and
practitioners of collaborative governance-as well as public
administrators and other possible participants in collaborative
governance processes-to discern when collaborative governance is
appropriate in politically complex, real-world settings; * A
roadmap for students, practitioners, and process participants to
help them design-and effectively participate in-productive,
efficient, and fair collaborative governance processes; * An
exploration of constitutional democracy and the ways in which
collaborative governance can be used as a tool in building a more
just, fair, and functional society. Collaborative Governance is an
ideal primary textbook in public administration, planning, and
political science courses, as well as a jargon-free primer for
professionals looking to learn more about the theory and practice
of this important field.
