{"product_id":"new-public-managers-in-europe-david-farnham-9780333650820","title":"New Public Managers in Europe: Public Servants in Transition","description":"Many changes are taking place in the public sector across Europe as emphasis is being placed on the efficient use of resources, the way that public organisations are managed and their relationship with clients and customers. Post-bureaucratic structures are being introduced and a more managerialist culture is being established. A new type of public servant is emerging - the public manager. This book consists of three theoretical chapters and nine case studies of public managers, which examine these changes amongst member states of the European Union. The concluding chapter identifies common trends and explains similarities and differences in terms of the constitutional, political, cultural and economic contexts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Farnham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0333650824\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780333650820\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/23\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.88d","brand":"David Farnham","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47421335929087,"sku":"9780333650820","price":109.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ef4de766-cc9c-4478-b770-0b72d3d51c94.jpg?v=1761526797","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/new-public-managers-in-europe-david-farnham-9780333650820","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
