“…To receive this funding, CSP's members are subject of coercive pressure from the government, shaping their goals, structures, and outcomes. The study reveals that, due to the imposition of material constraints (Weik, 2011) through the monitoring, partners have limited maneuvering space and find themselves without alternatives given the other logics. All members adapt to the prevailing governmental norms, which means that conflict between the different institutional logics is low and the level of institutional coherence is high (Vurro et al, 2010).…”

Although some scholars propagate cross-sector partnerships (CSPs) as a panacea for addressing the grand challenges of the 21st century, scholars also acknowledge that this type of collaboration faces significant barriers since the institutional logics of partners such as business, civil society, and government potentially have contradicting interests and future visions. This inductive longitudinal case study on integrating skilled migrants into the German labor market examines the institutional work by which CSP members, particularly government actors, deliberately rein in contradictory logics to reproduce the dominant government logic, and in doing so, establish a high level of institutional coherence. In disclosing the processes by which the dominant logic maintains its hegemony, I contribute new insight into the institutional dynamics within government-sponsored CSPs. I identify various actions and I illuminate CSP tensions and dark sides.
