Abstract: Abstract Articles on strategic networks have been plenty in recent times adding to our understanding of how to establish and maintain successful interorganizational relationships. However, little attention has been paid to the detailed governing and structuring of these relations on a more operational level (Grandori, 1997; Sobrero and Schrader, 1998). Yet this is exactly the level we have to turn to if we want to explain why so many strategic networks still fail despite the obvious advantages of not going it alone.
