The recent shift away from reactive to creative public policy
management has caused considerable problems in Central and Eastern
Europe. This book questions whether public management reforms as
applied in OECD countries can make a real contribution to
establishing new forms of public management in Central and Eastern
Europe. The book defines the main problems facing public
administrations in transitional countries and provides a
comparative evaluation of the relevance for these countries of
reform measures undertaken in OECD states. In the first part an
historical perspective on the role of the state in Europe is
presented. Parts two and three present country case studies which
focus on the key areas of public management and the attempts made
to address its current problems. The case studies describe the
constitutional and political framework in which the system of
public management operates and present a critical analysis of
ongoing reform processes. They focus on reforms at the central
government level, changes in local-central government relations,
and the high profile areas of health and education policy. The
authors look at the characteristics of the policy process,
financial and human resource management and the accountability
system. In conclusion, they question whether models of public
administration and strategies for reform applied in Western
capitalist economic systems, can really provide solutions to the
particular problems of Central and Eastern Europe, or whether those
problems might be aggravated by copying Western models and
strategies. Innovations in Public Management will be welcomed by
policy makers and practitioners in both Western Europe and OECD
countries as well as those working in transitional countries
through its fresh comparative approach and analysis of the real
applicability of reform strategies. It will also be welcomed by
academics and students interested in public administration, public
policy and government.
