Abstract

Collaborative governance is believed to lead to more innovative solutions to complex problems in public services. This article analyses whether this hypothesis applies in the case of decentralisation of labour market policy to regional networks of various actors in the Netherlands. We first develop a theoretical argument that integrates theories of collaborative governance with theories of innovation, distinguishing between a wide and a small option for innovation in relation to the structure, process and output/outcome of collaborative governance. Our findings show that, despite a variety of partnerships and ambitions across the regions, new and bold solutions to complex problems are scarce. In particular, wide innovation, which creates public value beyond the existing policy frameworks and services, is limited in practice. The article advances the theory by specifying barriers and conditions for network innovation in the public sector, and provides some suggestions for further research.
公共服务领域的协同治理和创新
协作治理被认为能够为公共服务领域的复杂问题提供更具创新性的解决方案。本文分析了这一假设是否适用于劳动力市场政策分散到荷兰各种行动者的区域网络的情况。我们首先提出了一个理论论点,将协作治理理论与创新理论相结合,区分了与协作治理的结构、过程和输出/结果相关的广泛和小的创新选择。我们的研究结果表明,尽管各地区建立了各种各样的伙伴关系和雄心壮志,但针对复杂问题的新的、大胆的解决方案却很少。特别是,广泛的创新在实践中是有限的,它创造了超越现有政策框架和服务的公共价值。本文通过明确公共部门网络创新的障碍和条件来推进这一理论,并提出了进一步研究的建议。
