Overview
This book analyses changes which have occurred in the organization and management of the United Kingdom public services over the last 15 years. The authors present an up to date analysis around three main themes: the transfer of private sector models to the public sector; the management of change in the public sector; management reorganization and change. In doing so, they examine to what extent has a New Public Management emerged and ask whether this is a parochial UK development or of wider international significance. This is a topical and important issue in management training, professional and policy circles.
