Social dialogue is critical for defining relations within and between different constituencies and bringing divergent interests towards a consensus. To bring understanding to the management of these dynamics of convergence and divergence, analyzing network relations that underlie social processes and structures of governance is necessary for growth. Social Partnership and Governance Under Crises is a collection of innovative research that focuses on the development of network relations while furthering the studies on governance of the public sector under crisis conditions. While stressing topics that include labor studies, political economy, and public administration, this book is ideal for public policy practitioners, public administrators, government officials, development agencies, academicians, researchers, and students.
