Comparing Network Governance in England and China (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book compares network governance practices and public service delivery in England and China. Adopting a political ethnographic approach, it assesses whether networked forms of governance are used in provision of care for the elderly and those with learning disabilities in the two countries. It also examines several concepts from network governance theory - including interdependence and resource exchange, trust and reciprocity, and diplomatic skills - in the context of English and Chinese local state engagement with NGOs providing and managing care. Perhaps surprisingly, the book argues that there are more similarities than differences in network governance practices in England and China. It will appeal to all those interested in network governance theory, public administration and comparative politics.

Yongmei Li is Lecturer in the Department of Public Administration at Nanjing University of Science and Technology, China. Her research interestsinclude network governance, urban governance and political ethnography.
