Handbook on Public-Private Partnerships in International Infrastructure Development A Critical Perspective

This Handbook systematically compares public-private partnerships (PPPs) from across the globe to examine factors that have contributed to their success or failure. The editors have brought together an international range of experts to produce richly detailed accounts of the various ways in which PPPs are conducted.The Handbook on Public-Private Partnerships in International Infrastructure Development addresses the crucial question: what makes an infrastructure project more or less successful when it is delivered by a public-private partnership? Providing thorough empirical analysis and following a methodological structure which aids reader understanding, chapters are divided into useful geographical sections including: the Anglophone world, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East and North Africa. This Handbook arrives at an important juncture, given the major infrastructure projects that will be necessary to achieve the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals.Authoritative and invaluable, the Handbook is vital for researchers focusing on infrastructure, strategy and project management. Practitioners will also benefit from the case studies featured in this book.
