Comprehensive reforms do not generate relevant and lasting changes. Yet some evolutions may occur that actually improve the efficiency level inside public administrations. The book identifies how and why such processes may occur. It explores an innovative approach to the way reform policies inside the public are assessed. The opening chapters examine the contributions of different disciplines to the study of change in the public sector, before proposing a framework to better understand management developments. The book then reviews eight crosscutting central government programmes successively launched since the late 1960s, examines how these programmes were designed and constructed, and analyses the ways in which three toolkits are appropriated: dashboards and indicators, cost-benefit analysis, and ex post evaluation. The final chapters examine the links between the development of agencification and the way in which central government proceeds to implement it, and demonstrate why and how the structure of human resources is crucial for initiating change processes. Together, the book proposes lessons for public practitioners as well as for academic purposes. Patrick C. Gibert is Emeritus Professor of Management at the University of Paris-Nanterre, France.

He is the co-founder of the journal Politiques et Management Public. Jean-Claude Thoenig is a former research director at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, France. A former associate dean at INSEAD, he led the French Conseil Scientifique de l'Évaluation. His academic contributions cover innovation management, policy implementation and evaluation, intergovernmental relationships, higher education, and research institutions. 001444131 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed February 4, 2022). 001444131 650_0 $$aPublic administration. 001444131 650_6 $$aAdministration publique (Science) 001444131 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001444131 7001_ $$aThoenig, Jean-Claude,$$d1940-$$eauthor. 001444131 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783030897987 001444131 830_0 $$aUnderstanding governance. 001444131 852__ $$bebk 001444131 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-89799-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001444131 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1444131$$pGLOBAL_SET 001444131 980__ $$aBIB 001444131 980__ $$aEBOOK 001444131 982__ $$aEbook 001444131 983__ $$aOnline 001444131 994__ $$a92$$bISE
