Abstract
O objetivo principal deste artigo foi identificar os avanços nos estudos de governança em rede, a partir do trabalho seminal de Provan e Kenis (2008). Suas oito proposições examinam as características de cada forma de governança, descrevem componentes críticos de contingência que podem explicar a eficácia da forma de governança, discutem as tensões inerentes a cada forma de governança e exploram a evolução da governança de rede ao longo do tempo. Para alcançar este objetivo, realizamos um metaestudo de 224 artigos, combinando análises quantitativas e qualitativas para ajudar a estabelecer um mapa dos recentes avanços no campo da governança de redes. A análise conjunta mostrou avanços específicos na governança das redes públicas. Em termos gerais, os estudos permanecem altamente fragmentados e ainda precisam atingir um nível maior de consolidação. Embora a proposta apresentada por Provan e Kenis (2008) tente contribuir para uma melhor compreensão dos modos, tensões e evolução da governança, ela ainda requer mais contribuições para estabelecer uma teoria sobre governança de redes. Há espaço para uma investigação mais aprofundada dos modos híbridos de governança, as contingências críticas que determinam a escolha do modo mais eficaz de governança e os mecanismos específicos usados para operacionalizar cada modo de governança.
Highlights
The studies on inter-organizational relations (IOR) have received significant attention from scholars in recent years, as a result of the increase in the use of cooperative strategies between organisations
Management (Agranoff & McGuire, 2001; Möller & Halinen, 1999; Ruffin, 2010; Verschoore, Wegner & Balestrin, 2015) and network coordination (Raeymaeckers & Kenis, 2016; Williams, 2005) have been used to address this topic over the years. This myriad of concepts has revealed the importance of the subject, it has led to the fragmentation of the understanding of governance, which makes academic consensus based on a single guiding theory hard to reach
This paper is organised as follows: section 2 presents a brief overview of the main topics discussed in the article that served as a starting point for our study; section 3 presents the methodological features of our meta-study; section 4 presents the results of the analysis; while section 5 presents the conclusions and directions for future research
Summary
The studies on inter-organizational relations (IOR) have received significant attention from scholars in recent years, as a result of the increase in the use of cooperative strategies between organisations.

It was in this inextricable context that Provan and Kenis (2008) published the article Modes of Network Governance: Structure, Management and Effectiveness in an attempt to contribute for the structuring of an actual field of studies and to establish a direction for its evolution. This paper is organised as follows: section 2 presents a brief overview of the main topics discussed in the article that served as a starting point for our study; section 3 presents the methodological features of our meta-study; section 4 presents the results of the analysis; while section 5 presents the conclusions and directions for future research
