eyn
Sector, Shared-Power, No-One-Wholly-in-Charge World brings together a r
g
stellar cast of thinkers to explore issues of public and cross-sector decision-
making within a framework of democratic civic engagement. It offers an
C Value in Practice
integrative approach to understanding and applying the concepts of creating
public value, public values, and the public sphere. It presents a framework r
and language for opening a constructive conversation on what governments, e
businesses, nonprofits, and citizens can achieve in a democracy that honors a a
Advancing the Common Good in
broad range of public values. t
i a Multi-Sector, Shared-Power,
n
Public officials, scholars, and citizens alike are engaged in an intense debate No-One-Wholly-in-Charge World
g
about the proper purpose, role, and size of government. In the midst of this
debate is a growing concern that important public values are ignored by gov- P
ernment reform efforts. This book explores the different definitions of public
u
value and approaches to public value creation, discernment, measurement,
b
and assessment. The text helps clarify the issues and demonstrates how the
l
meaning of public value is intimately related to how it is theorized, operation- i
c
alized, and measured.
V
The book examines the many alternatives for recognizing, measuring, and a
assessing public value and addresses the pros and cons of each approach. The l
u
result is a contribution to the ongoing dialogue about the virtues and limitations
e
of a focus on the public sphere, public values, and how to create public value in
the context of developing and implementing policies, programs, projects, and
i
plans that ideally boost confidence in public institutions. n
