The logic of the democratization process determines an increased importance of parties, other than state owned ones, to join the process of shaping the basis for social-economic development. The scarcity of public funds causes a need to find solutions for organizing the public service delivery system, including social services, that it is both cost-effective and consistent with the principles of social justice. The need for organizations providing social services to achieve high efficiency has led both practitioners and theorists to take an interest in inter-organizational collaboration as a formula in which they can be implemented. Research aims. There is a need for a theoretical reflection on the construct of networks operating in the formula of partnership between public sector and social organizations. Method. The paper is based on the literature review. Key findings. Networks operating in the formula of partnership between public sector and social organizations are (a) a relatively new organizational phenomenon, and (b) by nature flexible, with ability to change rapidly and to achieve added value. They arise from the pursuit of high efficiency and the proper coordination of various undertakings within complex organizational and social structures operating in a certain geographical and administrative space. Such structures provide a better environment for solving social problems.}, doi = {}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/international-journal-of-contemporary-management/artykul/public-social-partnership-a-framework-of-analysis-from-the-point-of-view-of-management-studies} }
