进行了实地研究，以确定是否不同的，竞争的利益相关者在一个领域可以利用合作，有意启动创新的公共政策影响该领域。研究对象包括代表24个利益相关者群体的61名参与者，这些利益相关者群体由一位美国州长召集，他们在1985年至1987年期间定期开会，为该州的公共教育制定“有远见的建议”。作者试图区分合作的实质和结果，并设计了一个具有五个要素的社会学合作概念：嬗变目的，明确和自愿的成员，组织，互动过程和时间属性。结果表明，利益相关者合作，以启动公共政策。研究结果还表明，合作与创新的假设，这种创新是渐进的，而不是激进的性质。
A field study was conducted to determine whether diverse, competing stakeholders in a domain can use collaboration to intentionally initiate innovative public policy affecting that domain. The subjects consisted of 61 participants representing 24 stakeholder groups gathered by a U.S. governor that met regularly from 1985 to 1987 to develop a "visionary proposal "for the state's public education. The authors sought to differentiate the substance of collaboration from its result and devised a sociological concept of collaboration with five elements: transmutational purpose, explicit and voluntary membership, organization, interactive process, and temporal property. The results reveal that the stakeholders did collaborate to initiate public policy. The results also show that the collaboration was associated with innovation as hypothesized and that this innovation was incremental rather than radical in nature.
