Abstract

Co-creation in public service delivery presupposes a ‘game change’ since it assumes partnerships between citizens and civil servants. Whether the game is actually changed varies per country. We examine to what extent state and governance traditions can explain whether co-creation changes public service delivery. Our research shows that state and governance traditions determine how co-creation comes to being. An authoritative state tradition may both be a driver and a barrier for co-creation. A governance culture of consultation may boost co-creation.
