‘Unpredictability, uncertainty and rapidly, drastically changing governance problems – in short: turbulence – challenge public organizations. This important edited volume discusses how public organizations respond to turbulence, both within their environment and within the organizations themselves. The empirical chapters provide fascinating insights into reactions within different policy fields and illustrate key organizational responses, centered on design, agency power and resilience.’
