Abstract
The entrepreneurial spirit is usually associated with private and not public institutions. This article, however, argues that government's response to the much expanded social role it took in the 1930s and 1960s is best understood as a kind of experimentation akin to entrepreneurship. Using New York as a case study, the author develops the elements of a theory of public entrepreneurship as an institutional resource in intergovernmental relations.Keywords
