Description:	It is not unusual to uncover gaps between theory and practice in modern society – from the field of economics to peace negotiations. Sometimes the gap arises from the complexity of a given problem, which makes the appli- cation of any theory unstable. In other cases, the cause lies with individual solutions that are unable to make themselves heard above the din of theo- retical dispute or the competing expectations of stakeholders. On the subject addressed by this book it would be surprising not to find such a gap. Governance, network and partnership are concepts that were introduced into public debate barely 30 years ago, and are still not fully understood in the same way by all.
