Description: "In this report of the Center for Public Service, which continues the work of the former Center for Public Management in a new home, Donald F. Kettl surveys the global public management revolution. He charts the major strategies, including New Zealand's 'new public management, ' the U.S. effort at 'reinventing government, ' and related efforts in developed and developing countries around the world. Kettle finds that this movement has revolved around six core ideas: the search for greater productivity; more public reliance on private markets; a stronger orientation toward service; more decentralization from national to sub-national governments.
