Moving beyond existing models from economics and political science, this book shows how crises in capitalism and democracy can be solved with systematic coordinated inter-organizational networks.

It offers a new model of societal coordination that builds cooperation and trust while solving today's modern, complex practical problems: systematic coordinated inter-organizational networks (scions). It details how scions can quickly catalyze organizational change among inter-organizational network members while providing a general framework for characterizing individual and organizational change. The chapters apply these theoretical ideas in an epic case study of the rebuilding of the health care system in rural Nicaragua after a major natural disaster (Hurricane Mitch). They provide lessons for public health program managers while contributing to the literatures on modes of coordination and on social capital.

The book is a vital text for upper-division courses on management, inter-organizational collaboration, crisis management, and public health.

Industry Reviews

"Saving Societies From Within addresses an important issue and does this in an understandable, well-argued way. It nicely positions the coordination of action - on the individual and organizational level of analysis - with the help of interorganizational networks between economic and political approaches to coordination."

Joerg Sydow, Professor of Management, Freie Universitaet Berlin, Germany

"The book offers an innovative approach to understanding the importance of interorganizational coordination. The introductory chapter is valuable and insightful. It explains the central theoretical approach in comparison with other approaches. Then, it shows main building blocks of the interorganizational coordination approach. The review of the literature is detailed and important."

Amalya L. Oliver, George S. Wise Chair in Sociology, The Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel
