Diferent seeds in the same plot? Cometing models of capitalism and partnership design 

 -  2001 
<br/><br/> This article  explains the differing nature of UK government and European Comission approaches to partnership, drawing on the `competing models of capitalism` debate. Comparative studies  have typically considered the impact of the same institutional arrangements across different territories - the `study of identical seeds sown in different plots`(Putnam 1993, p. 7). However, this article is concerned with the study of different seeds sown in the same small plot: an area within the  city of Sheffield. The different approaches to partnership enshirined in UK and EU regneration programme documents structure different prospective outcomes.  However, regeneration programme requirements must be understood as `incomplete contracts` and as such, policy implementers play a key role in shaping policy outcomes
