Context in Public Policy and Management: The Missing Link?
ISBN: 9781781955130 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. 'Putting into context' is a very common phrase - both in the social sciences and beyond. But what exactly do we mean by this, and how do we do it? In this book, leading scholars in public policy and management tackle these issues. They show how ideas of context are central to a range of theories and explanations and use an international range of case studies to exemplify context-based explanation. The book uncovers the complexity that lies behind an apparently simple notion, and offers a variety of approaches to decipher that complexity. Context is indeed a missing link, which enables us to...

Unbundled Government: A Critical Analysis of the Global Trend to Agencies, Quangos and Contractualisation
ISBN: 9780415314480 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Public sector bureaucracies have been subjected to harsh criticism. One solution which has been widely adopted over the past two decades has been to 'unbundle government' - that is to break down monolithic departments and ministries into smaller, semi-autonomous 'agencies'. These are often governed by some type of performance contract, are at 'arm's length' or further from their 'parent' ministry or department and are freed from many of the normal rules governing civil service bodies.
This, the first book to survey the 'why' and the 'how' of this epidemic of 'agencification', is essential... Public sector bureaucracies have been subjected to harsh criticism. One solution which has been widely adopted over the past two decades has been to '...

Time, Policy, Management: Governing with the Past
ISBN: 9780199237722 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In this important new book, Christopher Pollitt, one of the leading researchers in public policy and management, argues that we are guilty of neglecting a fundamental dimension of both the practice and study of contemporary public policymaking and management: that of time.
Pollitt traces the character of, and the reasons for, this neglect in his wide-ranging study. He considers the theoretical options for addressing time in a more sophisticated way, and applies these perspectives both to his own research and that of many others. Finally he looks at the implications for practitioners....
