’This volume presents a much wanted and comprehensive overview of the phenomenon of interactive governance between governments and citizens, which many see as a remedy for the problems of effectiveness and democratic legitimacy with which governments in our current network society wrestle. It compiles theoretical ideas, concepts and critical reflections from authoritative authors skillfully assembled by the editors. A must-read for scholars, students, and practitioners who try to make sense of this increasingly salient governance practice.'
