Overview

Cooper (political science, University of Vermont) considers the role of contracts in the relationships between governmental organizations and other agencies, communities, nonprofit groups, and private firms.

Chapters focus on criteria and trade-offs, agreement and authority, integration, operations, separation and transformation, and capacity building. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
