"Power Balance and Common Goals":Interdepartmental Collaboration in the Absence of Positional Authority——A Case Study on the'Dual Employment'Initiative between the H District Procuratorate and the Local Wetland Administration Office
In many areas of social governance in our country,the resolution of numerous problems exceeds the capa-bilities of individual organizations and requires reliance on intersectoral collaboration under functional authority.By linking the theoretical nodes of cross-departmental cooperation,we have constructed an analytical framework for'multiple motiva- tions-interdepartmental liaisons-dual perspective cooperation'to facilitate intersectoral collaboration in the absence of for-mal authority.This is exemplified in the detailed case study of the'dual staff mutual employment'initiative in grassroots procuratorates,which clearly illustrates the process and organizational logic of intersectoral collaboration.Regarding the motivation for seeking such collaboration,the activities of grassroots organizations emerge from a confluence of multiple mo-tivations,including completing tasks under the constraints of administrative resources,creating outstanding achievements in their official careers,enhancing authority,and reducing communication costs.In terms of the cooperation process,inter-sectoral connectors open avenues of collaboration by activating potential participants within the network and establishing so-cial capital.Concerning organizational logic,the specific mode of intersectoral collaboration is determinedby the balance of power and shared objectives between the two organizations.This paper addresses the research gap concerning how judicial and administrative bodies manage to engage in intersectoral collaboration in the complex field of ecological governance,despite the lack of hierarchical authority,and contributes to the advancement of localized frameworks for intersectoral cooperation.
