“…This simple example indicates that the police may gain from forming multi-agency partnerships to achieve their goals. The police may also be engaged in interagency collaboration among governmental organizations that belong to seemingly different areas of service especially when they come together to deal with a particular problem in the community [30]. Previous studies examined managerial factors that must be considered in order to manage a successful multiagency partnership [30] [31] [32].…”

“…Considering the high cost of crime mitigation and a collaborative effort, all interested parties must actively participate in the partnership in order to realize significant a cost sharing [25]. Moreover, coordination is essential in information sharing during the partnership period to avoid confusion [28] [30]. For instance, the management of the initiative must establish a clear report structure to ensure a smooth running of the program.…”

Collaborative Governance and Partnerships in Policing

This study has reviewed past literature on policing to shed lights on how collaborative governance may be used in the police service. In sum, evidence suggests that partnership in the police service has a huge potential of benefits in managing crime and safety, but it also requires a substantial level of attention to reap such gains. This research has looked into three distinct forms of partnerships in particular; police-probation, police-community and multi-agency partnerships. Each of these initiatives has their strengths and weaknesses. The main benefit of police-probation collaboration is that it significantly enhances supervision and apprehending of the offenders. On the other hand, community policing has been found to be effective in reducing the crime rate in the society through information sharing and reporting of cases of lawbreaking in the neighborhood. A multi-agency partnership improves the efficiency of service provision but requires a significant level of vigilance and coordination to minimize chances of conflicts.

“…2 Brokered network governance refers to a central or hub design in which activities are controlled by a lead organisation. Shared network governance refers to a decentralised or all-channel design whereby all members are responsible for the control of network activities; it is therefore based more on collaboration than coordination (Keast, Brown, and Mandell 2007;Kelman, Hong, and Turbitt 2013;Whelan 2014;Whitford et al 2010). No one form of internal network governance is always more preferable to another (Provan and Kenis 2008).…”

Networks are increasing in number and in importance across the security field as a means of providing inter-agency coordination. Based on a large qualitative study of networks in the field of national security in Australia, this article aims to advance our knowledge of the internal properties of public sector networks in the field of national security and the conditions shaping their performance. It puts forward a multi-level theoretical framework involving five interdependent levels of analysis-structural, cultural, policy, technological and relational-that aims to account for the internal properties of networks and examines each of these levels in relation to public sector networks in the field of national security. Using detailed interviews with senior members of security, law enforcement and intelligence agencies, the article aims to highlight the potential lessons this framework has for strategically organising and managing dynamic networks within and beyond the field of national security.

“…Collaboration usually involves two major sections that interplay to give it its meaning (Zodek 2008, Donahue 2004; Donahue and Zeckhauser 2011; Kelman et al 2013). To start with, the scale of collaboration, which is the extent within which collaboration takes place, is used in explaining collaboration governance.…”

“…Most governments in the world have introduced public reforms where they shift the powers from the appointed or elected leaders to more functional administrative blocks (Mandell 2001). The administrative blocks employ the citizens in enhancing their performance as it has since been determined that collaborative governance enhances the government's performance (O'Leary and Bingham 2009; Kelman et al 2013). For instance, the government through collaborating with the public is that it enables the policy makers to target the appropriate problems in the community, and acquire the stakeholders' permissions, opinions, or directions on how to tackle the problem.…”

ABSTRACT. This article reviews the concept of citizen participatory governance or citizen participation in public policy-making, a new mode of institutional arrangement increasingly becoming popular in many industrialized democracies. The governance of citizen participation may take different forms, and past studies used different terms in describing the concept. This article take a brief look at various forms of citizen participation (citizen participation in budgeting, collaborative governance, public-private partnership, and citizen coproduction of public service) and explain their concepts as demonstrated in prior research. In a nutshell, this article conclude that these various forms of citizen participation are not well conceptualized in the past literature and calls for future research in this research area with growing importance.
