Cross-Sector Partnerships to Address Social Issues: Challenges to Theory and Practice
整合了跨部门伙伴关系(CSSPs)的多学科文献,梳理了资源依赖、社会议题和社会部门三种分析框架,为组织研究者提供跨学科借鉴,并指出未来研究方向。
Project-based cross-sector partnerships to address social issues (CSSPs) occur in four “arenas”: business-nonprofit, business-government, government-nonprofit, and trisector. Research on CSSPs is multidisciplinary, and different conceptual “platforms” are used: resource dependence, social issues, and societal sector platforms. This article consolidates recent literature on CSSPs to improve the potential for cross-disciplinary fertilization and especially to highlight developments in various disciplines for organizational researchers. A number of possible directions for future research on the theory, process, practice, method, and critique of CSSPs are highlighted. The societal sector platform is identified as a particularly promising framework for future research.
