Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Interest in public finance and budgeting crosses many academic disciplines, especially when partnerships and collaborations between organizations across sectors are necessary. This Special Issue of Economies seeks a collection of high-quality studies investigating Public Private Partnerships (P3s or PPP) and, in particular, the structure, transparency, accountability and intergenerational equity of funding arrangements. We invite theoretical and empirical research articles that explore economic development targets, incentives and strategies. Inquiries into how best to accommodate a hybrid institutional logic, where public value is produced via an emphasis on the financial efficiency of a net profit logic, are encouraged. Original papers relating to how sub-national and local governments pursue mutually beneficial opportunities for sustainable economic development are especially encouraged.
Prof. Dr. Aimee L. Franklin
