Governance of hybrid networks in organisations and society

Jan-Erik Johanson and Jarmo Vakkuri

Chapter 2 in Handbook of Accounting and Public Governance, 2024, pp 11-31 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This chapter examines hybridity in organisations and society from a relational perspective. Within organisations, previous examinations of hybrids have concentrated on their forms, rationales and identities but have given less attention to the hybridity of networks. In society, strict separation between government, civil society and the economy has complicated the possibilities to comprehend and analyse hybrid mixtures between these parts of society. The idea is that social intercourse induces hybrid formations and that networks themselves embody a variety of hybrid arrangements. The developments of organisations as nodes (e.g. state-owned enterprises, or SOEs; social enterprises, or SEs), dyads (public-private partnerships, or PPPs), the management of common-pool resources, professionalism and networks (international commercial aviation, the state of Singapore) portray the relational hybrid forms in practice.
