Cultural Influences on Public-Private Partnerships in Global Governance

  • 465 Accesses

Abstract

It is not always about money. To achieve the goals set by member-states and those generated within international government organizations, partners often bring far more to the table than cash. While financial pressure is a constant, partnerships often succeed because of partner expertise; physical resources ranging from things as simple as fuel, to as complex as bio-metric identification software and equipment. To tap such resources the International Telecommunication Union, Interpol and the International Centre for the Study of the Preservation and Restoration of Cultural Property have innovated to get the best from their networks, which often reflect their own cultural perspectives. From reverse auctions to classrooms, Masters shines the light on how partnerships operate, and what partners bring to the table.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Sector Members from developing countries pay half this amount – see Table 3.2.

  2. 2.

    It should be noted here the Fédération Internationale de Football Associations’ head of security also illustrates how professional and organizational cultures can clash. The Kelso article describes this former police officer’s ‘methods, particularly his introduction of a robust law-enforcement approach into the usually diplomatic “football family”, and his outspokenness on the subject have been something of a culture shock to FIFA’ . The head of security left FIFA in February 2012, after being frustrated in his attempts to investigate the executive committee. In 2015, Interpol returned the uncommitted funds to FIFA and terminated the partnership.

  3. 3.

    Red is significant and links to operation to INTERPOL’s system for notices used for criminal and humanitarian inquiries. The system includes:

    Red Notices:  :

    To seek the arrest or provisional arrest of wanted persons with a view to extradition.

    Blue Notices:  :

    To collect additional information about a person’s identity or activities in relation to a crime.

    Green Notices: :

    To provide warnings and criminal intelligence about persons who have committed criminal offences and are likely to repeat these crimes in other countries.

    Yellow Notices: :

    To help locate missing persons, often minors, or to help identify persons who are unable to identify themselves.

    Orange Notices: :

    To warn police, public entities and other international organizations about potential threats from disguised weapons, parcel bombs and other dangerous materials.

    Black Notices:  :

    To seek information on unidentified bodies. (Interpol 2011d)
