COVID-19 and public-sector capacity

Mariana Mazzucato and Rainer Kattel ()

Oxford Review of Economic Policy, 2020, vol. 36, issue Supplement_1, S256-S269

Abstract: The paper argues that to govern a pandemic, governments require dynamic capabilities and capacity—too often missing. These include capacity to adapt and learn; capacity to align public services and citizen needs; capacity to govern resilient production systems; and capacity to govern data and digital platforms.
