Sinopsis:

Reseña del editor: This book provides an authoritative in-depth assessment of the development of the German public sector over the last decade. The authors examine the impact of international administrative trends - including privatization, the New Public Management, decentralization and Europeanization - and discuss the administrative consequences of unification. In addition to a lengthy introductory essay by the editors, the book includes analyses of postwar administrative development; the reform of the postal and telecommunications services; the privatization of the public railways; the Treuhandanstalt; the changing role of regional districts in West and East; local government transformation in the new Länder; and new forms of co-operative policy-making. This is the first English-language volume on the German public sector to appear for more than a decade. All articles are written by internationally recognized experts, representing a variety of disciplinary backgrounds and approaches. All are written in an accessible, non-legalistic style and are of relevance to professionals, academics and students.
