Unlocking the Power of Networks: Keys to High-Performance Government (Brookings / Ash Center Series, "Innovative Governance in the 21st Century" Book 4)

The era of strict top-down, stovepiped public management in America is over. The traditional dichotomy between public ownership and privatization is an outdated notion. Public executives have shifted their focus from managing workers and directly providing services to orchestrating networks of public, private, and nonprofit organizations to deliver those services. Unlocking the Power of Networks employs original sector-specific analyses to reveal how networked governance achieves previously unthinkable policy goals.

Stephen Goldsmith and Donald F. Kettl head a stellar cast of policy practitioners and scholars exploring the potential, strategies, and best practices of high-performance networks while identifying next-generation issues in public-sector network management. They cover the gamut of public policy issues, including national security, and the book even includes a thought-provoking look at how jihadist terrorists use the principles of network management to pursue their goals.

William G. Berberich , Tim Burke , G. Edward DeSeve ,William D. Eggers , Anne M. Khademian , H. Brinton Milward , Mark H. Moore , Paul Posner , Jörg Raab , and Barry G. Rabe .
