Governance and accountability (Governability) of multiple values of municipal corporations (MCs)
2022-
- How can we conceptualise, evaluate, and measure the multiples values, and performance of MCs?
- How do multiple values shape governance and accountability practices, and reversely, in MCs?
- How do governance and accountability practices aim to cope with the multiplicity of values in MCs? How can governments ensure that societal and public values and value creation are protected?
- How do corporate actors (i.e. board members, auditors, controllers, CSR managers, etc.) work to create governance and accountability practices in MCs?
- How is it possible to protect the public value in a context with multiple values and actors?
- How can citizens and other stakeholders be involved to create dialogic and compromising governance and accountability practices in MCs?
- What are the effects of hybridity of MCs on value creation and the forms of accounting and accountability practices?
