Highlights
The Collective Impact approach to social change is a relatively recent phenomenon
The theory put forward the first part of this paper showed that collective impact is essentially about challenging and where necessary changing patterns of power in the human system of a community to foster integration and nurture harmony and wellbeing
Kania and Kramer (2013) assert that “to be successful in collective impact efforts we must live with the paradox of combining intentionality and emergence” (p. 7)
Summary
The Collective Impact approach to social change is a relatively recent phenomenon. It had its origins in three seminal papers published by published by FSG Consulting between 2011 and 2013 in the Stanford Social Innovation Review (Hanleybrown, Kania, & Kramer, 2012; Kania & Kramer, 2011, 2013). The framework was assembled by the author as part of wider research towards a doctoral thesis (Marshall, 2019) It was developed through a process of theoretical bricolage (Denzin & Lincoln, 2000; Kincheloe, 2001) involving a critically reflective literature review of previously verified theory that is brought together in the framework carried out over a number of years. It consists of 4 main strands: ecological theory of human development (Bronfenbrenner, 1979); interpersonal neurobiology (Siegel, 2012a, 2012b); the theory of power and practices (Bourdieu, 1977, 1984, 1986, 1990; Bourdieu & Wacquant, 1992) and the theories of knowledge constitutive interests and communicative action (Habermas, 1978, 1987, 1988)
