Public Management: Old and New (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

Offering much more than a purely theoretical or retrospective view of public management, this exciting text is an invaluable new addition to the field of public management. Putting the American model in perspective, it establishes the historical, theoretical, analytical, practical and future foundations for the comparative study of public management.

Taking a boldly integrative approach, Laurence E. Lynn Jr. combines topics of best practice, performance, accountability and rule of law to provide a much-needed umbrella view of the topic.

Well-written and illustrated with case study examples, this is one of the most exciting books on public management available today. As such it is an essential read for every student of public management, administration and public policy.

Rezensionen

'In historical depth and comparative sweep Lawrence E. Lynn's Public Management Old and New is a tour de force. For starters, it is easily the best comparison of bureaucratic development in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and France ever written. Then add that Public Management Old and New is the best written and most sophisticated synthesis of modern public management theory available. Finally, in Public Management Old and New, Lynn brilliantly puts contemporary state-based public management in the context of the governance perspective. This book is destined to be a classic.' - H. George Frederickson, Professor, Department of Public Administration, Policy Research Institute, The University of Kansas

'This book would appeal strongly on advanced international public management and comparative courses and is basically a good and lively read'. - Ewan Ferlie, Royal Holloway, University of London, Local Government Studies
