Public–Private Partnerships (PPPs) have excited the political
world over the past few decades. Few books, however, have viewed them as both a
phenomenon of politics as well as a technical matter aiming to better deliver
public infrastructure. Through fiercely independent scholarship, this book
investigates the various logics of PPPs. In doing so, it challenges those
involved in delivering public infrastructure to think more about power,
language and politics in decision-making.
The Logic of Public–Private Partnerships takes a
cross-disciplinary perspective on PPPs. It notes their global popularity, and
considers the varying definitions used and policy positions taken by different
governments. It discusses the contemporary, international evidence supporting
and opposing the formation of these partnerships, with reference to efficiency,
value-for-money and governance. The simultaneous growth of PPPs in some
countries is observed along with their demise in others. The book also
articulates the solid reasons for which governments might adopt PPPs, before
pointing to continuing research priorities.
