| Abstract | Both the public and private sectors have long histories, and governments have been mixing efforts with private businesses for thousands of years. So, despite our modern enthusiasm for private finance and partnerships, historians were right when they said, ‘there is nothing new about the mixing of public-private endeavors’ (Wettenhall 2005, 22). But if this is so, then why all the fuss from public management researchers such as ourselves, and why the clear global popularity of the public–private partnership (PPP) phrase nowadays? Just where does the modern story of PPP begin, and what is historically new? And ultimately, do PPPs work? There have been changes in linguistics and changes in terms of public policy, and both have shaped our assumptions on how to get the most from each sector. Each of these elements provides a context for today’s PPP research and both are central to ongoing debates about PPP success. |
