This article explores the impact of public entrepreneurship on the Cheonggye Stream Restoration Project (CSRP) as an urban renewal project. The article presents the four elements of entrepreneurship: innovativeness, risk-taking, proactiveness, and network governance. Innovativeness was an important motive to start the CSRP. The risk-taking and proactive leadership of the mayor had a positive effect on boosting internal cohesion among public employees and implementing the CSRP. Network governance helped manage conflicts among the related stakeholders and attract support to the CSRP. The article suggests that it was the effort to share the spirit and practice of public (or social) entrepreneurship with the people -- including the general citizens, public servants, experts, and interest groups -- that eventually led to the success of the restoration project. Adapted from the source document.

AbstractAs untying aid was widely considered key to enhancing aid effectiveness, the South Korean government decided to increase the share of untied aid. While the share increased substantially in recent years, considerable variation exists in the proportion of untied aid provided to different recipient countries. This article explores the reasons why. We identify three key variables: international factors, economic interests and recipient country governance. By analysing South Korea's aid data for the period 2010–2013, we find that Korea's aid‐untying practice is affected by international norms and the recipient country's governance, but not by peer pressure and economic interests.
