Abstract
Our analysis of the literature indicates a growing prominence of hybridity within the field of public administration. Hybrid arrangements incorporate ambiguities and controversies, but they also represent opportunities for joint action and goal achievement. The difficulties inherent in hybridity originate from the dichotomous view of the public–private divide and the underdeveloped measurement instruments. The contributions of this special issue address these challenges, providing extensive evidence as to the empirical reality of the manifold aspects of hybrid public management. Encouragingly, this knowledge enabled us to revisit existing hybridity models and provide an up-to-date Framework for Hybridised Public Management to further advance the development of theory and practice. Drawing on this framework, we suggest future research in key areas.
