Conceptual Issues in Inter-Agency Collaboration
Inter-agency collaboration – or partnership as it now commonly termed – is central to New Labour's agenda, but the general support for a partnership approach conceals disputes about definitions and approaches. This article begins by examining the shift to more complex and ambitious partnerships in health, social care and regeneration, which require new modes of governance. The three main modes – market, hierarchy and network – are briefly describ…

These issues are examined from the perspective of the motives and behaviour of membe…
Democratic Consensus and the Young

The aim of this paper is to see how far this is still the case by assessing democratic attitudes amongst college students in a sample from Britain and America, using scales developed by McClosky (1964). The paper concludes that the responses fr…
