Abstract
ABSTRACTDecentralized public organizations have many advantages, but can be inefficient due to suboptimal organizational size and duplication of activities. Selective inter-organizational collaboration may produce economies of scale without undoing the benefits of decentralization, assuming that co-ordination and re-organization costs are low. The authors tested this popular reform logic using data from all English councils, focusing on shared administration and tax collection. There were no significant benefits from either kind of collaboration.
