Building the Republican State is an insightful analysis of the new
state and the new public management that is emerging in the
twenty-first century. It presents the historical stages that led to
the modern state, identifies a crisis of the nation-state and its
origins in a fiscal crisis and in globalization, and situates
public management in the last phase - the social-liberal and
republican state. To understand such stages the author develops the
theory of republican rights, as a fourth type of citizenship right,
after the civil, the political, and the social rights. The book
contains an original model of reform, in which the roles of the
state, the forms of ownership, the types of public administration,
and the organizational-institutions indicated in each situation are
put together. Additionally, the book discusses the political
theories behind the reform, and its political implications.
Throughout the book, the author underlines the complementary roles
of markets and the state, and the importance of building state
capacity to assure administrative efficiency, always having in
count the 'democratic constraint', i.e., the prevalence of the
political over the economic realm. This is essential reading both
for those studying political theory and government reform, as well
as for anyone interested in state politics and globalization.
