Summary:

This book explores the concept of 'smart hybridity' in governance, which involves innovative and adaptive arrangements that combine different governance mechanisms to address complex societal issues. By examining empirical case studies in policy domains such as disaster response, social care, metropolitan governance, and sustainable value chains, the authors analyze the dynamics and effectiveness of hybrid governance practices. The book emphasizes that 'smart' governance does not aim for quick fixes but seeks sustainable, legitimate solutions that balance public values and enhance institutional trust. It also includes theoretical reflections from international scholars, offering insights into the challenges and opportunities of hybrid governance. This volume is intended for policymakers, academics, and professionals involved in designing, implementing, or evaluating governance structures in complex contexts. Generated by AI.
