Public Value Governance: Moving beyond Traditional Public Administration and the New Public Management

摘要

Scholars and public professionals are making important theoretical, practical, and operational strides in developing a new approach to public administration as an alternative to approaches that preceded it. They need to do more, however, before the new approach is widely understood, appreciated, and used to advance important public values underplayed by traditional public administration and New Public Management. In this final section we offer some tentative conclusions about where things stand and then outline an agenda for research and practice.
