Three-way categorisations, hybrids and intersectoral mixes in the governance equation 

 - Hong Kong :  University of Hong Kong,  June 2003 
<br/><br/> Many attempts to explain social, political, economic and organisational developments have produced three-way categorisations of relevant phenomena. This article identifies several such categorisations, and looks at the oddity of ordering wich often sees so-called third sets occupying middle grounds between first and second sets, leading to exercises in continuum-building wich emphasise the hybrid-like qualities of many constituents of those sets. The exploration extends particularly to non-departmental public sector bodies, not-for-profit organisations and state-civil society mixes.
