| Summary: | On the Second Edition of Christopher Pollitt and Geert Bouckaert’s Book :
Public Management Reform : a Comparative Analysis
This article is a commentary on the second edition of the reference work on public
management by Christopher Pollitt and Geert Bouckaert, Public Management Reform :
A Comparative Analysis. This second edition contains so much fresh material in terms of
updating and new ideas that it is practically a new book. Along with a comparative
analysis by subject and a detailed study of the twelve OECD Member States, the author
comments on some of the basic themes of the book, such as the possibility of exporting
successful reforms from one state to another and under what conditions, or the need to
find the right balance point between the tensions that any (attempt at) reform will produce
or reveal (reducing the size of the administration while increasing its efficiency), or
finally, the autocratic nature of evaluation, part and parcel of any serious reform. |
