5. Politikers perspektiv på det gränsöverskridande samarbetet över Öresund : En studie om drivkrafter, visioner och hinder i Helsingborg och Helsingör

Author

Gebhard Jensen, Olivia and Gebhard Jensen, Olivia

Abstract

This study aims to contribute to the research field in the cross-border region of Oresund, between Helsingborg and Helsingor. The study aims to research politicians’ views on the cooperation between the two cities and to answer how politicians in Helsingborg and Helsingor view cross-border cooperation in the region based on driving forces, visions, and obstacles. The purpose is also to see if there are any differences between the politicians' views, in each city, on the cooperation and if the cross-border cooperation is being driven by instrumental ideas or value-based ideas.The study does this by qualitative interviews with politicians on each side of the border in the two cities. The interviews and the analysis of the material are based on the three carrying concepts: driving forces, visions, and obstacles. The analysis is being done with the help of the theory based on instrumental driving forces and value-based ideas.From the analysis, the conclusion is that the driving forces behind this cooperation is connected to the geographical proximity between the countries. The vision is based on the goal of becoming a strong seamless-region and that there are obstacles such as taxes. The study concludes that the cooperation is mostly driven by instrumental ideas but that some of these driving forces have their origin in some type of value-based idea. The conclusion is also that the politicians in the two cities view the cooperation in a mostly similar way.

Abstract

Designing effective water policy in developing countries is challenging for many reasons, including limited capacity to formulate and implement policy. This paper examines major water policy reforms in two exemplary cases, Malaysia and the Metro Manila region of the Philippines, considering the quality of regulatory design and how this relates to policy capacity. The paper identifies ways in which policy design can anticipate challenges associated with capacity limitations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

30. Embracing Uncertainty in Policy-Making: The Case of the Water Sector Introduction

Author

Jensen, Olivia, Wu, Xun, Jensen, Olivia, and Wu, Xun

Abstract

Recent research on policy-making under uncertainty in the water sector has contributed to our understanding of types and sources of uncertainty as well as to the development of tools and approaches to manage uncertainty. This paper reviews the literature and identifies several strands of systematic bias, notably an emphasis on natural sources of uncertainty over human sources; a tendency to treat sources of uncertainty as independent and a corresponding neglect of interaction between sources; and a focus on tools to reduce or contain uncertainty rather than to accommodate it. The papers in this issue contribute to overcoming these biases. (C) 2016 Policy and Society Associates (APSS). Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

34. Public–private partnerships for water in Asia: a review of two decades of experience.

Subjects

Abstract

This article reviews the development of public–private partnerships (PPP) in water services in Asia over the last two decades and situates the Asian experience within the wider global context. Through a comparative analysis of PPP data from two different sources, the article highlights the critical issue of how ‘private’ is defined in understanding the extent of PPP in Asia, due to the important role played by enterprises under mixed public and private ownership. The article identifies cyclical patterns of development of PPP in the water sector across countries and the use of hybrid contractual and institutional arrangements for PPPs.
