'A broad-ranging and highly intelligent account of key recent
developments internationally which skillfully updates the public
management and governance literatures' - Ewan Ferlie, Royal
Holloway 'Public management has been radically changed and
reformed... this book gives students a fine introduction to these
changes and to the theories dealing with them' - Jorgen Gronnegaard
Christensen, University of Aarhus An introduction and guide to the
dramatic changes that have occurred in the provision of public
services over the last two decades, this book combines theoretical
perspectives with a range of case studies from Europe, North
America and further afield to explain why, how and with what
success liberal democracies have reformed the service role of the
state. The book pays close attention to four major dimensions of
this transition: " External challenges and opportunties:
globalisation and EU integration " Reducing the role of the state:
Liberalisation, privatisation, regulation and competition policy "
Improving the role of the state: New Public Management,
e-Government and beyond " Managing the New Public Sector:
organisations, strategy and leadership This text is designed for
undergraduate courses in public governance, but it also addresses
the core components of MPA programmes - the parameters, tools,
principles and theories of public sector reform.
