Call for Papers: Innovation in Intergovernmental, Inter-jurisdictional, and Regional Collaboration: A comparative perspective

Organization: School of Government, Central University of Finance and Economics

 

For decades, regional governance has become an important form in response to the challenges of economic globalization, social provision or environmental problems. In order to deal with a series of cross-boundary issues in the process of regional governance, such as watershed management, air pollution control, transport infrastructure construction, enclave economy etc., based on different discipline theories, public administrators in different countries and regions have adopted a variety of methods in promoting intergovernmental, inter-jurisdictional and interregional collaboration and management. What innovative strategies have been used in practice? Why and by whom are these strategies adopted? How and how far do these strategies achieve effective regional governance?

In this session, we invite papers investigating the distinct logics and critical clues at work in diverse regional collaboration processes, especially to focus on the cross-regional collaborative governance practices among different countries, regions, and disciplines from a comparative perspective. Possible topics include but are not limited to:

1.A comparation of innovative intergovernmental collaboration approaches in addressing emergency issues in different regions

2.Difficulties and resistances, e.g., about law, economy and politics, to establish sustainable regional collaboration in different countries/regions

3.Institutional mechanisms enacted and practiced by the central and local governments to improve the horizontal relations in specific national and regional governance cases

4.How intergovernmental collaboration in different countries/regions adapts to the new situation: comparative cases and comparison

5.Strengthening collaborations between regional municipalities in response to the COVID-19
