Excellent- More about Reforming Public Management and Governance - Impact and Lessons from Anglophone Countries
This book examines the condition of Anglophone countries after 40 years of reform to public sector management and governance, comparing four countries using the Westminster system. It explores the changes resulting from distinctive reform agendas, exposing performance shortfalls and unintended consequences, such as bureaucratization. It also unpacks those traditions and conventions of governance in Anglophone countries that have been disrupted by unrestrained political executives, producing dramatic imbalances in management and governance systems.

This comprehensive book delves into two dominant reform agendas - managerialism and politicisation - to assess the state of Anglophone countries after 40 years of reform in public sector management and governance. By comparing four countries using the Westminster system - Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom - John Halligan examines the changes brought about by distinct reform agendas, highlighting performance deficiencies and unintended consequences, such as bureaucratisation. Offering a comprehensive overview of the implementation and outcomes of key administrative developments, Halligan uncovers the traditions and conventions of governance in Anglophone countries that have been disrupted by unrestrained political executives, resulting in dramatic imbalances in management and governance systems.
Written with judiciousness and incisiveness, this book is a vital resource for postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students of public policy seeking a deep understanding of both historical and contemporary reforms to public management and governance. Moreover, government practitioners and specialists who work closely with governments will greatly benefit from Halligan's comparative approach to public management systems.
