<i>‘As politicians across the world have loudly debated how best to shrink the size of government, clever entrepreneurs have pushed off in a very different direction: creating complex partnerships between government and the private sector, which have pushed government more deeply into the private sector and pulled private partnerships more deeply into the core of government. In this important new book, the editors have pulled together a fascinating collection of papers that examines how these partnerships are transforming the provision of services and, in fact, the very nature of governance itself.’</i>
- Donald F. Kettl, University of Maryland, US,

This is an extremely useful collection of papers that will be essential reading for anyone interested in partnerships and public policy more generally.’</i>
