摘要

While public value theory has emerged to offer important insights into the evaluation of social enterprises, little is known about the origins of public value failure and even less about the role that organizations and public policy play in creating public value failure. Accordingly, this analysis explores the origins of public value failure using examples from for-profit higher education. A selection of organization and public policy concepts are integrated into a public value mapping framework to develop a theoretical basis for public value failure drivers. In addition to advancing public value theory, an understanding of the origins of public value failure and the role of failure drivers has important implications for the design of public value-maximizing strategies and institutions.
