Authors:	Sabine Kuhlmann, Geert Bouckaert
Keywords:	Local Public Sector
Issue Date:	2016
Publisher:	Palgrave Macmillan
Description:	This book provides comparative analyses and accounts of local public sector reforms in a wide range of countries (including Eastern and Western as well as Northern and Southern European systems) and reform measures (including territorial, functional and NPM/post-NPM reforms as well as democratic renewal and participatory innovations). Based on the research of the COST-Action “Local Public Sector Reforms: An International Comparison—LocRef” (IS1207), the volume is intended to address the abovementioned defi cits by means of a strictly comparative approach using multinational teams of co-authors for each chapter. It exploits the expertise of about 60 internationally renowned scholars coming from 30 European countries, an outstanding source of knowledge that has not hitherto been integrated and synthesized in any book published on this topic.
