Introduction: The Economics of Public–Private Partnerships

Chapter

Abstract

This introductive chapter proposes a state of play of the different public–private partnership (PPP) arrangements. After recalling their weight in the total provision of infrastructure and public facilities, we define the different PPP families and the way they are generally awarded. This chapter establishes a preliminary basis to understand the economic challenges surrounding the questions on PPPs.
