Synopsis

This incisive book addresses the significant challenges facing the public sector in an era of rising global turbulence. Expert authors explore strategies for robust public governance, emphasizing the need for flexible adaptation and proactive innovation to fulfil political ambitions, uphold values, and undertake key societal functions in times of crisis.

Chapters examine diverse approaches to turbulent problems, drawing on comparative empirical studies of local responses to the refugee crisis, the climate crisis, and the COVID-19 pandemic. They highlight the benefits of combining theory and practice, introducing a novel analytical framework to demonstrate the importance of collaborative governance and new institutional designs. Ultimately, the book looks toward the future study of robust governance, proposing an interdisciplinary research agenda that goes beyond the traditional dichotomy between public administration and crisis management.

Students and researchers in public governance, public administration, political science, and public policy will benefit from the cutting-edge insights in this book. It is also an invaluable resource for policymakers and practitioners in the public sector and in private consultancy firms seeking to understand new developments in public governance.
