Joined-Up Government
ISBN: 9780197263334 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. These essays analyze "joined-up government," consider its history, and evaluate the consequences for British institutions such as the Cabinet, the civil service and local authorities. The Labour government, first elected in 1997, decided that intractable problems such as social exclusion, drug addiction and crime could not be resolved by a single department of government. Instead, such problems had to be made the object of a concerted attack using all the arms of government--central and local government and public agencies, as well as the private and voluntary sectors. This volume brings...

The radical transformation of public service delivery is assessed in terms of its overall impact as well as its operation in particular service areas.

Progress in Planning, Volume 50, Part 2 : Meaningful Collective Choice? Public Planning and Arrow's Theorem
ISBN: 9780080434438 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This essay is based on Kenneth Arrow's celebrated impossibility theorem stating that under a few quite reasonable assumptions, collective choice cannot be simultaneously logical and fair. The purpose here is to argue that planning procedures can reduce the likelihood that decision cycles will arise when democracy is pursued. It is examined whether some of Arrow's assumptions can be relaxed under widespread and participatory planning, since planning and public debate may force a minimum of conformity on the stated individual preferences. However, collective choices have to be made in spite...
