Notes

【Course Objectives】

In the current era of “governance,” wherein the public sector works with business and non-profit sectors to make and implement public policy, public managers face many challenges resulting from the complexity of collaborating with multiple organizations across sectors. To examine these challenges, understand the potential problems, explore their solutions, and help students develop the managerial skills to solve them, this course will emphasize two objectives: (1) understanding key concepts in inter-organizational theory and (2) applying the concepts to public organizations that collaborate across sectors.

【Course Contents】

This course covers inter-organizational theories, such as resource dependence theory, institutional theory, and network theory, to familiarize students with relevant major theoretical frameworks, their strengths and weaknesses, and the similarities and differences among them.

We will devote two sessions to each theory. In the first class, one inter-organizational theory and its application to public organizations will be introduced, explained and discussed for understanding. In the second session, students will give a presentation on two related research articles and lead the discussion.
