De senere år har samskabelse vundet indpas i den offentlige sektor som en arbejdsform, der lægger mindre vægt på kontrol og i stedet vægter samarbejde og inddragelse. Mange taler om en generel overgang fra New Public Management til New Public Governance i den offentlige sektor. En væsentlig komponent i samskabelse og New Public Governance er, at offentlig styring i højere grad handler om at hæve serviceniveauet ved at opbygge kompetencer. Det kræver en ny dagsorden i den offentlige forvaltning med fokus på capacity building. Denne bog stiller skarpt på samskabelse i den offentlige sektor og præsenterer capacity building som et perspektiv til at sikre bedre relationer, mere robuste organisationer og en bedre udnyttelse af de menneskelige ressourcer i den offentlige sektor. Redigeret af Hanne Kathrine Krogstrup, professor mso ved Aalborg Universitet.
