Social Partnerships and Responsible Business: A Research Handbook

Cross-sector partnerships are widely hailed as a critical means for addressing a wide array of social challenges such as climate change, poverty, education and health. Amid all the positive rhetoric of cross-sector partnerships though, critical voices point to the limited success of various initiatives in delivering genuine social change and in providing for real citizen participation. This collection, aided by contributions from leading academics, critically examines the motivations for, processes within and expected and actual outcomes of cross-sector partnerships.
