Abstract

Public-private partnerships (PPPs) are versatile business models aimed at creating and offering public goods and services by combining the advantages of public and private sectors. Altough they are widely accepted and used globally, public-private partnerships vary greatly in their structures, mutual risk distribution and sector applications. In Croatia, the PPPs have been insufficiently investigated and implemented, even though there have been significant project investments in the education, sports and transport sectors. This article presents a systematic literature review with the aim of filling the knowledge gap by analyzing all of the literature published so far on PPP projects in Croatia. By using the PRISMA methodology, it analyzes and identifies the dominant topics, sectors and methodological approaches in this literature, while at the same time giving indicating gaps and opportunities for the advancement of research and practice of PPPs in Croatia.
