Contingencies of Power Sharing in Collaborative Governance
研究了协作治理中权力不对称问题,提出一个包含六项权变因素的框架,从情境、网络和节点三个层面分析权力共享如何影响治理效果,建议根据动态权变设计协作安排。
Studies on dynamics of power relationship play a significant role in the collaborative governance literature because many issues and challenges in collaborative governance can be linked to power asymmetry in collaboration. This article proposes a contingency framework on power asymmetry in collaborative governance that includes six contingency factors of power sharing from contextual, network, and node perspectives. We focus on how each contingency factor influences the relationship between power sharing and the effectiveness of collaborative governance and suggest that, instead of focusing on the attempt to balance power and share power in collaboration, it will be more fruitful to design and implement collaborative arrangements based on the dynamic contingencies.
