Reviews
Alessandro Sancino's new book offers thought-provoking discussions on several key concepts in public management, especially on public value and the actors involved in creating it. -- Taco Brandsen, Professor of Public Administration at Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands & President of EMES International Research Network. Alessandro Sancino's book is a remarkable and much-needed synthesis of the multiple literatures related to public value co-creation. For those of us trying to find our way in this field that is crucial for the future of liberal democracies, the book is an invaluable guide to navigation for purposes of research, teaching, and service. -- John M. Bryson, McKnight Presidential Professor Emeritus, Hubert H. Humphrey School of Public Affairs, University of Minnesota, USA. This book is a valuable contribution to the new literature on co-created public value creation for two reasons. First, it moves beyond the narrow perspective of public values as something that the public sector produces alone or by occasionally involving private actors by pointing out that public value is produced in all corners of society and that a public sector that aims to mobilize society and enabling place-based co-creation stand much better chance of contributing a strong and well-functioning society. Second, the book offers much needed guidance for public managers who aspire to take on this task. -- Eva Sorensen, Professor in Public Administration and Democracy, Department of Social Sciences and Business, Roskilde School of Governance, Roskilde University, Denmark.
