Organizations, Policies, and the Roots of Public Value Failure: The Case of For‐Profit Higher Education
本文探讨公共价值失败的根源，以营利性高等教育为例，将组织与政策概念融入公共价值映射框架，提出“失败驱动因素”理论，对设计最大化公共价值的策略和制度有重要启示。
Abstract While public value theory has emerged to offer important insights into the evaluation of social enterprises, little is known about the origins of public value failure and even less about the role that organizations and public policy play in creating public value failure. Accordingly, this analysis explores the origins of public value failure using examples from for‐profit higher education. A selection of organization and public policy concepts are integrated into a public value mapping framework to develop a theoretical basis for public value “failure drivers.” In addition to advancing public value theory, an understanding of the origins of public value failure and the role of failure drivers has important implications for the design of public value–maximizing strategies and institutions .
