Institutionalised Co-Production: Unorthodox Public Service Delivery in Challenging Environments
Author(s)
Joshi, Anuradha; Moore, Mick
Abstract
In developing countries in particular, services are often delivered through unorthodox organizational arrangements that cannot simply be dismissed as relics of ‘traditional’ institutions, or as incomplete modern organisations. The authors explain some varieties of institutionalized co-production arrangements; explore why they appear to be relatively so widespread in poor countries; and relate the concept to broader ideas about public organization.
