Over the past 10 years partnership working has become a central
feature of public services. This book analyses experience of
partnerships in different policy fields, identifying the
theoretical and practical impediments to making partnership work
and critically evaluating the advantages and disadvantages for
those involved. Its broad coverage goes beyond the confines of
statutory partnerships, addressing other important forms of
collaboration between voluntary, private and statutory sectors and
service users and community and minority groups. Through a wide
range of perspectives, Partnership working aims to integrate theory
and practice across a number of policy areas. Using a variety of
models, it: highlights both positive and negative aspects of
partnership working at political, cultural and technical levels;
shows how partnerships can empower people and groups through
effective collaboration; suggests some of the principles on which
good practice should be based and the resources required; addresses
key issues of accountability, representation and social exclusion.
The book provides important reading for academics, policy makers,
service providers and senior practitioners in community development
and community safety, local government, housing, social services
and health. It will also be a valuable resource for those working
in voluntary organisations and students on professional courses.
