Abstract
This chapter contains an analysis of the effectiveness and legitimacy
of modes of governance in four European city regions that show clear
characteristics of hybrid governance in the sense that they combine
both private and public features. This approach is used by the cities
of Berlin, Eindhoven, Copenhagen-Malmö and Zürich to enhance
the problem-solving ability of their regional governance and to apply
new smart governance arrangements in a complex and multilayered
environment. Each of the four cities has its own way of searching for
effective links with public, private and social partners, but the issue
of legitimacy remains underexposed. Risks with regard to effectiveness
and legitimacy are inherent in hybrid forms of governance,
but they may equally offer new opportunities for good governance.
