The Collaborative Marine Management of Jiangsu Province Government Departments from the Perspective of Collaborative Government Theory

Abstract

In accordance with the requirements of the "Jiangsu Provincial Institutional Reform Plan", Jiangsu abolished the marine administrative agency in the provincial administrative reform in 2018, and the marine management function was split into other government management departments. This has optimized the marine management system, and to a certain extent, the previous shortcomings such as the division of land and the sea and the overlapping of responsibilities have been alleviated. But it also has brought some problems, such as the decentralization of marine management functions, the obvious weakening of marine administrative institutions, and the governments of the three coastal cities insufficient synergy effects, etc., have hindered the high-quality development of Jiangsu′s marine economy. Based on the actual marine management of the Jiangsu government, the theory of collaborative government endows the government with management efficiency. The paper proposed to establish an open and collaborative administrative concept, set up a task-based organization, and promote the institutionalized sharing of marine information, in order to promote the efficiency of collaborative management among various government departments and promote the construction of a powerful marine province, give play to the effective momentum of the government.
