“…The increasing importance of PPP development has meant that research articles published on the topic is important both to researchers and practitioners in the field (Al-Sharif and Kaka, 2004;Marsilio et al, 2011). However, it is evident that despite the tremendous enthusiasm internationally for the use of the PPP model to improve health care, there is no common understanding as to what precisely constitutes a PPP (Barr, 2007), and which are the main drivers and characteristics that lead to PPP success.…”

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) have become popular worldwide as a way of improving health care service delivery. In order to enhance our knowledge of PPPs in the health care sector, we conduct a systematic review of forty-six articles published in peer-reviewed journals for the period of 1990-2011. Six lines of research in the PPP domain are identified: effectiveness, benefits, public interest, country overview, efficiency and partners. The main findings suggest that although PPPs are used to address internationally emerging public health issues, questions as to their actual effectiveness, efficiency and convenience, still remain unanswered. We propose viable recommendations and ideas for future research.

“…The former examines in-depth interests and attitudes of the scholars that have provided their contribution to the academic field (Bos and Tarnai 1999;Insch et al 1997). The latter enhances the findings of the qualitative literature study and validates what experts may have only intuitively inferred (Furrer et al 2008;Marsilio et al 2011;Ramos-Rodríguez and Ruíz-Navarro 2004).…”

This paper aims to assess the state of the art, the structure and the evolution of the debate on control enhancing mechanisms (hereafter CEMs). It combines bibliometric and qualitative methodologies to analyze 210 articles published in scientific journals up to 2014. The findings show that the academics' interest has increased over time, and the research has simultaneously developed along two main poles: antecedents and consequences of the proportionality principle. The analyses also reveal that the debate stems from the US studies on the legal principles of disproportionate ownership devices at the end of 19th century, and has been strongly fueled by the 'law and finance' theorists. This paper has both theoretical and practical implications. First, it provides insights into underexplored issues where future research efforts could be focused. Second, it supports new policy-making interventions to CEMs and encourages investor regulation and corporate transparency.

“…This makes it a suitable approach to analyse a concept with so many different views such as managing infrastructure assets. Moreover, this approach is a well-accepted procedure in other bibliometric studies on management literature (White & Griffith, 1981), for example, see Marsilio, Cappellaro, and Cuccurullo (2011) on publicprivate partnerships. The approach consists of three steps.…”

Research orientations towards the ‘management’ of infrastructure assets: an intellectual structure approach

In recent decades, research on the management of infrastructure assets has increased steadily. However, there are concerns raised about the contribution of studies to a coherent body of knowledge. There is a call for a more structured understanding of the knowledge that is emerging around the management of infrastructure assets. This paper attempts to answer this call through an empirical study based on the reference lists of over 8200 articles that present their study relevant to the management of infrastructure assets. In so doing, we apply recognised techniques from bibliometric and social network analyses to visualise and identify major and minor topics, where researchers have oriented and contributed. We find that managing infrastructure assets traditionally was object-oriented, such as pavements, bridges, water and utility networks, and that attention is only now emerging on the life-cycle decision-making and organisational aspects, although the latter remains weakly linked with technical aspects. We conclude with shared research orientations in 'managing' infrastructure assets.
