Essay: Cooperation in Value-Creating Networks, by Adrian Zicari & Stefan Linder, professors at ESSEC

This volume embarks on a research journey that focuses on the processes of economic and social value creation in the 21^st century. 

Given that value creation is increasingly organized in networks consisting of businesses, governments, academia, civil society, and other societal stakeholders, the contributions address various aspects of and challenges in governing cooperation in value-creating networks. Exploring topics such as relational rationality, cultural complexity, shared value creation, and relational contracts, they reveal the mechanisms and processes involved in governing the complexities of inter-sectoral relationships in a networked society. 

Given its scope and focus, this book will appeal to scholars of economics, economic sociology, organizational studies, and related fields.
