ABSTRACT

In this article, we utilize the Collaborative Governance Databank to empirically explore core theoretical assumptions about collaborative governance in the context of crisis management. By selecting a subset of cases involving episodes or situations characterized by the combination of urgency, threat, and uncertainty, we conduct a plausibility probe to garner insights into a number of central assumptions and dynamics fundamental to understanding collaborative crisis management. Although there is broad agreement among academics and practitioners that collaboration is essential for managing complex risks and events that no single actor can handle alone, in the literature, there are several unresolved claims and uncertainties regarding many critical aspects of collaborative crisis management. Assumptions investigated in the article relate to starting-points and triggers for collaboration, level of collaboration, goal-formulation, adaptation, involvement and role of non-state actors, and the prevalence and impact of political infighting. The results confirm that crises represent rapidly moving and dynamic events that raise the need for adaptation, adjustment, and innovation by diverse sets of participants. We also find examples of successful behaviours where actors managed, despite challenging conditions, to effectively contain conflict, formulate and achieve shared goals, adapt to rapidly changing situations and emergent structures, and innovate in response to unforeseen problems.

协作危机管理:核心假设的合理性探究

摘要

在本文中,我们利用协作治理数据库来在危机管理的背景下以经验的方式探索关于协作治理的核心理论假设。通过选择涉及紧急情况,威胁和不确定性相结合的事件或情况的子集,我们进行了合理性调查,以收集对理解协作危机管理至关重要的许多中心假设和动态的见解。尽管学者和实践者之间达成广泛共识,认为协作对于管理单个参与者无法单独处理的复杂风险和事件至关重要,但是在文献中,关于协作危机管理的许多关键方面,仍然存在一些未解决的主张和不确定性。本文中研究的假设与协作的起点和触发点,协作水平,目标制定,适应,非国家行为者的参与和作用以及政治内斗的普遍性和影响有关。结果证实,危机代表着快速变化的动态事件,这增加了参与者的适应,调整和创新的需求。我们还发现了一些成功行为的例子,尽管有挑战性的条件,但行为者仍设法有效地遏制冲突,制定并实现共同的目标,适应迅速变化的情况和突发事件的结构,并针对无法预见的问题进行创新。以及政治内斗的普遍性和影响。结果证实,危机代表着快速变化的动态事件,这增加了参与者的适应,调整和创新的需求。我们还发现了一些成功行为的例子,尽管有挑战性的条件,但行为者仍设法有效地遏制冲突,制定并实现共同的目标,适应迅速变化的情况和突发事件的结构,并针对无法预见的问题进行创新。以及政治内斗的普遍性和影响。结果证实,危机代表着快速变化的动态事件,这增加了参与者的适应,调整和创新的需求。我们还发现了一些成功行为的例子,尽管有挑战性的条件,但行为者仍设法有效地遏制冲突,制定并实现共同的目标,适应迅速变化的情况和突发事件的结构,并针对无法预见的问题进行创新。
