The Public-Private Challenge in Comparative Law and Governance

This special issue arises from a cross-disciplinary research initiative focused on the interaction between public and private interests in governance systems, and the re-thinking of public interests in private relations, which we summarize as 'the public-private challenge' . More specifically this research initiative addresses questions about how public interests can be safeguarded by private actors, within private relationships and within public-private partnerships, and on the interaction between the emergence of public and private interests in relation to contemporary societal challenges such as globalization, digitization and privatization and crises like those of the environment and public health
