Title

New Public Management: Theory, Ideology, And Practice

Abstract

Reform of public administration is now a worldwide phenomenon, as governments grapple with rapid social, economic, and technological change, including the effects of globalization. Several countries have implemented radical and comprehensive public-sector reforms since the mid-1980s. These reforms have established objectives and set incentives for productive performance and involve greater transparency. The opening of government agencies to competition, greater privatization, and accountability standards contributed to improved government performance. These reforms have reduced the governments’ market involvement relative to the total economy.
