Abstract

This chapter examines the role of expertise in public policy collaboration. It explores how expertise influences and is influenced by collaboration, and the ways in which expertise and collaboration interact productively and unproductively. It examines the challenges and opportunities collaboration presents to expert identities and performances, the role of actors and agency in enabling and constraining expertise in collaboration, and the implications for public policy in different places and spaces. Finally, it focuses on the specific expertise required to collaborate well and the particular role played by ‘boundary spanners’ in public policy collaboration.
