Tony Bovaird and Elke Loeffler (eds.) (2009), Public Management and Governance, Routledge, London and New York.

This second edition examines key issues in efficient management and good quality service in the public sector. With contributions from leading authors in the field, it looks at how the process of governing needs to be altered fundamentally to remain legitimate and to make the most of society’s many resources.

Key themes include:

  • challenges and pressures facing modern governments worldwide
  • the changing role of the public sector in a ‘mixed economy’ of provision
  • governance issues such as ethics, equalities, and citizen engagement

This new edition has an increased international scope and includes new chapters on partnership working, agency and decentralised management, process management, and HRM.
