How does collaborative governance evolve? Insights from a medium-n case comparison
Understanding the performance of collaborative governance regimes (CGRs) necessitates an understanding of how stakeholders and their interactions evolve over time. However, few studies assess the evolution of the structure or process dynamics of CGRs over time. This paper contributes to our understanding of the longitudinal dynamics of CGRs. We apply a modified grounded theory approach to a dataset of collaboration case studies to develop empiric…
Fighting to Cooperate
Water management systems in the western United States prioritize historical economic uses of water, but are being tasked with addressing growing populations, unmet ecosystem needs, and climatic changes. Collaborative governance scholars posit that collaborative processes generate solutions better suited to resolving wicked natural resource problems than traditional regulatory approaches. However, scholars dispute how collaboration and regulatory …
Why The Big Picture Matters
While a vast theoretical literature argues that we live in populist times, the success of populism beyond its electoral dimension is rarely investigated empirically. This paper analyses the development of populism in five Western European countries (Austria, Germany, Netherlands, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom) from the 1970s to the 2010s. First, it measures whether political parties articulate populist discourses more and more often in thei…
Policy Change and Venue Choices
Grass seed farmers have burned their fields in Idaho and Washington State for decades. Field burning, however, creates small particulate matter air pollution, thus engendering a growing public backlash by the 1990s that manifested itself in new clean air advocacy groups. The new groups’ push for policy change eventually met with significant success in both cases. How did each set of advocates approach the challenge of policy change? More specific…
Managing Collaborative Processes
The study of managers in collaborative efforts continues to progress. In this article, the authors investigate the efforts by managers to build and maintain collaborative processes to address complex public problems that vary by policy area (emergency management, environmental regulation, and community renewal), focus on different dimensions of the problem, are prompted by different forms of system breakdown, and generate different collaborative …

A Functional-Form-Free Test of the Research and Development/Firm Size Relationship
Parametric testing of the relationship between research and development (R&D) and firm size is limited by the hypothesized functional form, predominantly assumed to be linear in the logarithms of both variables. With a transformation of variables, the null hypothesis of constant returns to scale can be tested employing the multiple-rank F-test procedure. The findings of this analytical approach suggest that R&D intensity varies with firm size in …
