The ending of the Soviet Union in 1991 had a major political and
economic impact on Central Asia. Kyrgyzstan was one of the most
severely affected countries, suffering a deeper recession than the
other republics. During the first five or six years Kyrgyzstan
followed the advice of the International Monetary Fund and was
considered a model of both economic and political reform. This book
analyses the ability of the newly independent government in
Kyrgyzstan to create a realistic national vision, prepare a
strategy, organise and control its public services to deliver the
desired result. Covering a fifteen year period and using the case
study of the educational sector - which declined even though the
economic situation in Kyrgyzstan improved - the author throws light
on many other aspects of a country in transition, in particular, on
strategy, implementation and outcomes. Comparisons with other
sectors such as roads and pensions, and in particular the health
care sector are presented. A multifaceted approach using case
studies, phenomenology, interviews, historical and comparative
analyses offers a more complete picture of national management of
public service and the structure of government administration. The
book also investigates the contribution made by the international
aid organisations. A detailed study of institutional transformation
in Kyrgyzstan, this book is of interest to academics studying
former socialist countries in transition, the history of the Soviet
Union and Central Asian studies in general.
