When collaborative development meets New Public Governance: The case of Etorkizuna Eraikiz Territorial Development Lab in Gipuzkoa
Cuando el desarrollo colaborativo se encuentra con la Nueva Gobernanza Pública: El caso del Laboratorio de Desarrollo Territorial Etorkizuna Eraikiz en Gipuzkoa
Resumen
Etorkizuna Eraikiz Territorial Development Lab (TDLab) is a long-term action research process that has produced a change towards more horizontal forms of territorial development and policymaking governance in Gipuzkoa. The article analyses this experience to reflect on the role of public organisations in steering cooperative forms of territorial development. Specifically, the article suggests that cooperative forms of territorial development may need network-based public organisations; and it shows that TDLab has fostered and embodied practices framed under New Public Governance (NPG), a network-based public administration paradigm. By reflecting on how such practices were fostered in TDLab, the article also suggests a potential complementarity between New Public Governance and action research for territorial development, the research approach and change strategy developed in TDLab, as a means of better contributing to network based public organisations.
Key words: territorial development, New Public Governance, action research, governance.
Resumen
El Laboratorio de Desarrollo Territorial de Etorkizuna Eraikiz (TDLab) es un proceso de investigación acción a largo plazo que ha producido un cambio hacia formas más horizontales de desarrollo territorial y gobierno de las políticas en Gipuzkoa. El artículo analiza esta experiencia para reflexionar sobre el papel de las organizaciones públicas en la facilitación deformas cooperativas de desarrollo territorial. Específicamente, el artículo sugiere que las formas cooperativas de desarrollo territorial pueden necesitar organizaciones públicas en red; y muestra que TDLab ha fomentado y encarnado las prácticas enmarcadas en la Nueva Gobernanza Pública, un paradigma de administración pública basado en el concepto de red. Al reflexionar sobre cómo se fomentaron tales prácticas en TDLab, el artículo también sugiere una posible complementariedad entre la Nueva Gobernanza Pública y la investigación acción para el desarrollo territorial, el enfoque de investigación y la estrategia de cambio desarrollada en TDLab, como un medio para contribuir mejor a la red de organizaciones públicas.
Palabras clave: desarrollo territorial, Nueva Gobernanza Pública, investigación acción, gobernanza.
