This study discusses the possible effects of the intervention of politicians—actors that operate above organizations—in the monitoring and execution of public–private partnerships (PPPs). Using the recent case of the Mottarone cable car crash, this research offers evidence that, pressured by private organizations, political actors had both weakened the public sector's ability to effectively monitor the private sector in the execution of PPPs and facilitated private firms in deviating from their contractual obligations. These findings suggest that the interference of the government in PPPs likely has increased the challenges of establishing accountability, and this is also source of ethical issues
