- Theoretical underpinnings of the concept of governance, especially competing perspectives from Europe and the US
- Governance of inter-organizational partnerships and contractual relationships
- Governance of policy networks
- Lessons learned and future directions
Under the steely editorship of Stephen Osborne and with contributions from leading academics including Owen Hughes, John M. Bryson, Don Kettl, Guy Peters and Carsten Greve, this book will be of particular interest to researchers and students of public administration, public management, public policy and public services management.
