How do governments address complex, cross-sectoral problems, like the COVID-19
pandemic? Why were some Latin American countries more successful at containing
the pandemic’s most devastating health outcomes? We argue that national governments
that were more collaborative in their response to COVID-19 were more successful in
reducing death rates. Our original dataset offers a novel attempt to operationalise collaborative
governance (CG). We undertake simple statistical tests to measure the relationship
between CG and COVID-19-related mortality rates in Latin America. We then
choose three case studies to assess whether collaboration was meaningful in practice.
Initial evidence suggests governments that pursued CG were more effective at containing
mortality rates early on in the pandemic. The collaboration helped to foster cooperation
over resources; buy time to prepare for a potential case surge; and produce a
unified message regarding what citizens should do to prevent viral spread. |
