▼ This study investigates the use of and changes to accounting technologies in the context of New Public Management (NPM). This principled approach to public management has placed great emphasis on business style practices with the enduring goal of getting public sector organisations to run more efficiently, effectively and with greater accountability. NPM has been a pervasive agenda for public sector organisations, particularly in western democracies, and has therefore been subject to significant academic and professional scrutiny. The investigation of NPM rationales in practice has revealed discrepancies between intended and actual outcomes and has exposed differing rhetorical stances (cf. Bisman 2008; Broadbent and Laughlin 1997; Christenson and Laergreid 2001; Dixon 1996; Edwards and Ezzamel 1995; Falconer 2006; Guthrie et al 2003; Lapsley 2008, 2009; Mir and Rahaman 2006; Pollitt 2000). This study therefore seeks to investigate whether similar dissonance exists in the context of a reforming education sector in the Australian state of New South Wales (NSW), a contemporaneous context which, although highly topical, has not been the subject of significant accounting research. In so doing, the study attempts to identify/investigate contextual factors and the antecedents of NPM, many of which surfaced during the reforming era of Australian public administration in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It will be shown that NPM contrasts greatly with the previous approach to public administration known as ‘modern bureaucracy’. From a methodological perspective, the study emanates from a constructivist ontological foundation, thus the subject of social inquiry is acknowledged to possess contextual specificity. Accounting technologies are regarded as purposive devices capable of guiding social action and defining the roles of the various actors present in the researched organisation. The philosophical and theoretical underpinnings tethered to this ontological foundation reinforce the methodological framework for the study. Qualitative field research was selected to gain a better understanding of the phenomena in question. One NSW public school was selected for conducting the field research in order to substantiate the convincing arguments of the study. Research conducted in the field consisted primarily of interviews with relevant school staff members as well as from the researcher’s individual observations and the use of archival. It is found that, though the researched organisation eschewed many NPM principles in favour of a more traditional approach, recent reforms have impressed significant changes to accounting technologies such as devolved budgeting, the introduction of an enterprise resource planning system and the future transition to accrual accounting. This has expanded the role of the key players within the organisation. It has been envisaged that NPM has created new visibilities including a more parsimonious approach to human resource management. In addition, it appears that traditional values such…

▼ New Public Management (NPM) has been one of the dominant paradigms in public management since the 1980s. Its various elements have been adopted by many countries around the world in their public sector reforms. This research examines the most influential models of NPM and draws out the recurring elements among them. These elements are then employed to build the theoretical framework of how NPM may be related to the reforms in higher education sectors in two countries with highly contrasting contexts: the United Kingdom and China. The UK is an industrialized country that has been one of the pioneers in implementing NPM reforms in its public sector; whilst China, being a socialist country where its public sector has long been under the tight control of the government, is among the developing countries as one of the "late adopters" of NPM techniques in its public management reforms. The aim of this study is to examine the extent to which NPM reforms in these two countries shared any commonalities and divergences. Multiple cases studies are adopted as the main research method. Four universities are chosen: two in the UK and two in China. A comparative analysis of issues relating to the application of NPM techniques in the reforms in these two countries is provided. The NPM elements adopted during the reform processes in the four case studies are analyzed respectively according to the theoretical framework. The conditions under which various NPM elements have been introduced during the reforms are examined and the extent to which they have been applied in the higher education sector in both countries is explored. Results indicate that there has been a translation of NPM techniques from its original country (the UK) to the Chinese socio-economical and political environment. It has been found that although some of the NPM elements such as delayering and devolution of power are shared by both countries, divergences still exist in many aspects of their organizational changes. Meanwhile, the elite and non-elite group of universities in both countries have chosen different pathways in their reforms, which I have significant impacts on the outcomes. The implications of these case studies for future research on public sector management are discussed in the conclusion.

▼ When Tony Blair's New Labour administration took control in 1997, it sought to establish a programme of organizational, performance, and democratic reform. Initially badged as the modernizing government programme, it was later developed in the Best Value regime for local government, which imposed a centrally-controlled performance regime on all local authorities. This was characterized by a managerialist regime of external inspections, league tables, and reliance on extensive performance management, overseen by the Audit Commission. One of the first acts of the 2010 Coalition government was to dismantle this regime, along with announcing the abolition of the Audit Commission. This research sought to examine the legacy of the 1997-2010 performance regime on six English local authority case studies, identified via a deviant case analysis. An examination of the literature developed a conceptual model of seven dimensions of reform, and the research used an exploratory approach to examine the legacy of the performance regimes through a range of qualitative interviews and focus groups. The inductive analysis of interview data found that financial austerity dominated the local government environment, and the impacts of these cuts were felt across the entire group of case studies. These savings requirements had effectively broken the expectation of continuous improvement explicit in the Best Value duty what we refer to here as the death of improvement . Authorities were reducing staffing, which resulted in the loss of expertise and skills. They were also scaling back many universal services through managed decline , and deregulation of performance regimes was stimulating divergent responses to performance management arrangements, as well as influencing the relationship between politicians and performance management, and central performance staff and departmental staff. There were challenges raised around the residual inspections, largely restricted to social care and education, and how these interacted with central performance team models. The discussion develops a three-part model of performance as a system of governance , which integrates three key areas of theoretical and empirical development: performance management frameworks, accountability, and value for money. This allows four main contributions to knowledge: The concept of public value for money , Further development of our understanding of multiple forms of accountability A new model of performance management zones that articulates different roles for performance management at points within the organization A categorisation of the main changes in reform paradigms It concludes that understanding the values underpinning public sector reforms through a range of interpretive lenses is essential to fully comprehending the impact of reforms at three levels: conceptualization, operationalization, and implementation.

▼ Among other strategies, the New Public Management seeks to introduce private-sector practices into government management. These include focusing on contractual relationships between elected officials as service providers and government agencies and private sector firms as service producer and utilizing such techniques as outcome-oriented planning and competition for service delivery. The City of Charlotte, North Carolina introduced these practices beginning in 1992 in a process it called Rightsizing with the stated purpose of reducing service delivery costs associated with non-public safety functions. This dissertation is a case study of Charlotte’s efforts. Specifically, I utilize Transaction Cost Economics to understand planning, service delivery, and expenditures under Rightsizing. Planning in Charlotte evolved through two phases. First, Charlotte largely focused on the mechanics of service delivery through strategic planning processes directed towards efficient service production. The second phase-Balanced Scorecards-focused Charlotte’s planning efforts squarely on service delivery outcomes. Charlotte attempted to introduce market forces into service delivery through competition by identifying nearly 380 services that would be opened for competition. However, between 1992 and 1999, fewer than 150 services were actually competed for, and most of those were not identified originally as candidates for competition. Charlotte did reduce expenditures for non-public safety functions successfully which were then applied to police and fire services. The lack of a relationship between the actual exposure of services to competition combined with Charlotte’s success in reducing service delivery expenditures for non-public safety services provides some support for the notion that outcome-oriented planning for service delivery can be a successful route to reducing service delivery expenditures. It is possible that efforts to more closely align service delivery through outcome-based planning, training employees, developing reward-based compensation schemes, and instilling values of public service may be as equally adept at reducing service delivery expenditures as opening services to market forces such as competition and contracting.

▼ Tämän päivän korkeakoulujen odotetaan olevan tehokkaan tuloksellisia ja kansainvälisesti kilpailukykyisiä toimijoita. Tavoitteisiin pohjaten korkeakoulutuksessa on toteutettu New Public Managementin (NPM) mukaista reformia. NPM-opin taloudellisuuden, tehokkuuden ja vaikuttavuuden tavoitteisiin pyritään hyödyntämällä tulosjohtamista. Tulosjohtamisella tarkoitetaan organisaation sisäistä prosessia, jossa pyritään tulostavoitteiden avulla varmistamaan organisaation tuottava ja taloudellinen toiminta. Tässä fenomenografisessa tutkimuksessa tavoitteena on selvittää millaisia käsityksiä ammattikorkeakoulujen kansainvälisten asioiden parissa työskentelevällä hallintohenkilökunnalla on NPM:n mukaisesta tulosjohtamisesta. Tutkimuksen teoreettinen viitekehys on koottu korkeakoulukontekstissa ja se muodostuu NPM:ää, tulosjohtamista sekä korkeakoulujen kansainvälisyyttä käsittelevästä kirjallisuudesta. Tutkimuksen empiirinen aineisto on kerätty neljästä eri ammattikorkeakoulusta sähköisesti avoimilla kysymyksillä sekä teemahaastatteluilla. Aineistosta nousi neljä eri tapaa käsittää NPM:n mukainen tulosjohtaminen; toiminnan laadun varmistajana vs. uhkaajana, organisaation rakenteiden ja henkilöstöpolitiikan uudistavana vahvistajana vs. hajottajana, trendikkään arvokkaana yrittämisen vapautena vs. annettuna kilpailemisen mallina, vuorovaikutuksena ja motivointina vs. byrokraattisena mittaamisena. Erilaiset tavat käsittää NPM:n mukainen tulosjohtaminen tiivistettiin neljään käsityskategoriaan: neutraali käsitys (toimintoympäristön valitseva realiteetti), positiivinen käsitys (korkeakoulujen toimintaedellytyksien vahvistaja), negatiivinen käsitys (korkeakoulujen toimintaedellytyksien uhkaaja), kehittävä käsitys (kehittyvä ja kehitettävä oppi). Vastaajien käsitysten mukaan korkeakoulujen tulosjohtaminen on johtanut joihinkin positiivisiin muutoksiin mm. prosessien selkeydessä ja toiminnan laadun kehittämisessä. Toisaalta tuloksellisuus- ja tehokkuusajattelun nähdään ajavan vääränlaiseen mittariohjaukseen, henkilöstöresurssien liialliseen tiukentamiseen, korkeakoulujen väliseen ja sisäiseen kilpailuun ja tätä kautta työviihtyvyyden ja työssä jaksamisen heikkenemiseen. Vastaajien mielestä tulosjohtamisessa on vielä kehitettävää. Sitä toteutetaan liian byrokraattisen teknisesti; tavoitteita ja mittareita asetetaan ja niiden seurannasta vastuutetaan mutta vuorovaikutuksellisuuden, sitouttamisen ja tulospalkitsemisen suhteen ollaan vielä alkutekijöissään. Tutkimuksen mukaan alaisilla ei ole tulosjohtamisesta yhtä selkeää kuvaa kuin päälliköillä. Lisäksi kansainvälisen toiminnan arvostus jää usein yhä edelleen juhlapuheiden tasolle; ymmärrys siitä, miten kansainvälinen toiminta voi vaikuttaa positiivisesti korkeakoulujen taloudelliseen tulokseen tai edesauttaa korkeakoulujen toiminnan laatua, ei vielä läpäise koko korkeakoulua. Tulosjohtamisen onnistumiseksi korkeakoulujen kannattaakin kiinnittää huomiota niin tulosjohtamisen prosessin ja tavoitteiden merkityksen ymmärtämisen kuin kansainvälisen toiminnan ymmärryksen ja…

▼ Äldreomsorgen har fått kritik i massmedia under den senaste tiden vilket har bidragit till flera omorganisationer som skett sedan 1990-talet. Omorganisationerna har vuxit fram ur ett nytt styrningssätt som går under begreppet New public management (NPM), som fokuserar på styrning, uppföljning och redovisning. NPM har många influenser från det privata näringslivet och förändringar som skett har bland annat inneburit att verksamheterna arbetar för en ökad effektivisering av organisationen, mål- och resultatstyrning samt ökad kvalitet. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur styrningen som är i linje med NPM beskrivs av chefer på olika organisatoriska nivåer inom äldreomsorgen i Stockholms stad. Frågeställningen som besvaras i uppsatsen är hur verksamhetscheferna respektive enhetscheferna beskriver att styrningen som är i linje med NPM har påverkat verksamheterna samt deras arbetssituation. Teorier om byråkrati, postbyråkrati samt NPM används som referensram i uppsatsen. I tidigare forskning presenteras hur NPM påverkar olika delar i den offentliga sektorn, både i Sverige och internationellt. Studien har en kvalitativ ansats och insamlandet av det empiriska materialet har utförts genom åtta semistrukturerade intervjuer. Resultatet visar att de intervjuade cheferna upplever att NPM påverkar verksamheterna samt arbetssituationen för enhetscheferna och verksamhetscheferna. Resultatet indikerar att svaren från informanterna är liknande kring hur NPM påverkar verksamheterna men att arbetssituationerna påverkas med vissa skillnader mellan verksamhetscheferna och enhetscheferna. Verksamheterna har påverkats genom att det blivit en uppdelning av organisationen i en så kallad beställar- samt utförardel och en större konkurrensutsättning på grund av privatiseringar. Gällande arbetssituationerna upplever enhetscheferna ett ökat ekonomiskt ansvar och fler arbetsuppgifter. Verksamhetscheferna upplever bland annat ett ökat arbete med mål- och resultatstyrning samt fler uppföljningar.

Inledning: Forskning avseende ledarskap och chefskap består av en djungel av teorier och dess diskurs är splittrad. På 1990-talet skedde kraftiga reformer inom offentlig sektor i syfte att göra den offentliga sektorn mer lik den privata. En ökad grupp av äldre och omfattande reformer har gjort chefernas arbete inom branschen mer komplex. Massmedia har framställt en bild av att äldreomsorgen under 2000-talet har befunnit sig i en stor kris i takt med den ökade privatiseringen och utvecklingen av New Public Management, vilket i sin tur ställer högre krav på cheferna. Syfte: Studien vill skapa förståelse för hur chefer inom äldreomsorgen ser på chefskap respektive ledarskap samt på krav som kan kopplas till deras roll som chefer. Studiens ambition är att ur ett individperspektiv bidra med en större förståelse för de krav som ställs på dagens chefer och komplexiteten i samband med deras chefskap. Metod: Tolkande förhållningssätt med en kvalitativ ansats, där semistrukturerade intervjuer använts för att samla empiri. Resultat/Slutsats: Chefskap och ledarskap som begrepp har genomgått omfattande förändringar. Chefskapet har blivit mer komplext i och med att rollen har förändrats och kraven har ökat. Detta till följd av ökade regleringar och kontroller i sviterna av New Public Management som till stor del kännetecknas av administration. Trots en distinkt skillnad mellan ledarskap och chefskap dras slutsatsen att krav finns på att dessa roller ska samverka och i ökad grad kommer att behöva göra det. Viktiga element i chefspositionen i enlighet med respondenterna är; coachning, motivering och stöttning av medarbetarna vilket motsvarar deras definition av ledarskap. Utifrån detta går det att dra slutsatsen att det idag inte längre räcker att agera som en traditionell chef som styr utan i chefskapet ska också ledarskapet inkluderas.

Introduction: Managership and leadership science is a jungle of theories with a fragmented discourse. Severe reforms during the 20th century was implemented with the purpose of making the public sector more similar to the private one. An increase in the number of elderly combined with several reforms has resulted in more demands put on the management. During the 21st century media portrays a crisis within the geriatric care due to increased privatization and the development of New Public Management which in turn place greater demands on the leaders within this sphere. Purpose: This paper aims to create an understanding of managership and leadership within the geriatric care from a management perspective. The results may contribute to a greater understanding of the demands put on today’s leaders and the complexity related to their managing from an individual perspective. Method: An interpretive and qualitative approach using semi-structured interviews Results/Conclusion: Managership and leadership as a concept has…

▼ The purpose of this thesis is two-fold. This study investigates the effects new public management (NPM) reforms have on public servants in one particular agency. The results of this investigation suggest that one of the reform programs, customer service orientation, appeared to be of concern to public servants affecting their motivation and morale. This led to further research with the aim to explore a likely relationship between customer service orientation and motivation. Therefore, the two research problems investigated in this thesis are: 1. What, if any, effects do new public management reforms have on public servants? 2. Does an organisation’s customer service orientation have an impact on public service motives and if so, how? Answers to these questions are important for the implementation and management of reform programs and for the effective and efficient performance of public service organisations. Motivation in particular is a critical component for job satisfaction, organisational commitment, and good citizenship behaviour, and as such has important ramifications for the organisation’s performance, culture, and ultimately its customers. The study starts with in-depth interviews with employees from one public service agency that experienced major reform processes. The findings of this first part of the investigation indicate that public servants were indeed affected by the reform process and although they had high expectations of the reforms at the onset, they were quickly disillusioned. The main areas of concern were found to be customer service, morale, and motivation. To explain the interview data two existing constructs are used. The customer service construct includes information-based, culture and philosophy-based, and service and interaction-based interpretations of customer service orientation (CSO), whereas the motivation construct is based on public service motives (PSM) and explains rational, normative, affective, and self-sacrifice motives. The findings suggest that public servant’s perception of their organisation’s customer service orientation had an impact on their motivation and morale. The second phase of this study uses these findings to investigate this proposition on a larger scale across a number of different public service organisations. First, a conceptual model has been developed, based on the two constructs used in the previous phase of the study. Twenty hypotheses are posited in an attempt to explain the impact of customer service orientation and its individual dimensions on public service motives and its individual dimensions. An online survey provided 314 usable responses that were analysed using a partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) technique. This method has soft distributional assumptions useful for exploring and developing theory. The two-step approach of PLS-SEM ensured the measures were validated before analysing the relationships between the constructs. The findings provide evidence supporting eighteen of…

Hensikt: Hensiktenmed studien var å undersøke forutsetningene for å være faglig leder for anestesisykepleiere i dagens norske helseforetak. Metode: Studien ble gjennomført med en kombinert metodikk: 1) Spørreundersøkelse med et skjema som forfatteren selv utviklet til alle førstelinjeledere for anestesisykepleiere i norske helseforetak,totalt77, med 80,5 % svarfrekvens. Datable analysert med kvantitative metoder.2) Halvstrukturerte individuelle intervju med syv ledere, strategisk utvalgt, både kvinner og menn, i alle landets fire regionale helseforetak, som det ble gjort en kvalitativ innholdsanalyse av. Resultat: I denne studien fant man at mange andre presserende oppgaver for lederne gjør at faglig ledelse ofte blir nedprioritertog delegert til andre, som fagutviklingssykepleierne. Lederne har et betydelig fokus på helsefremmende ledelse. Lederrollen er belastende, til tider slik at helsen påvirkes. Det er liten interesse for og nærmest ingen konkurranse om lederjobben. Av lederne er forholdsvis mange menn. Konklusjon: På grunn av de endrede rammebetingelsene,som følge av blant annet enhetlig ledelse og helseforetak,har lederrollen endret seg. Den har gått fra å stort sett være faglig leder til stadig mer personalledelse og administrative oppgaver. Lederne har i høy grad tilpasset seg de nye kravene, ogfungerer på mange måter som hybridlederemedettydelig fokus på helsefremmende ledelse.Anestesisykepleiefaget ivaretas gjerne av fagutviklingssykepleierne. Lederjobben oppleves som belastende og ikke særlig attraktiv for anestesisykepleiere

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the conditions being a professional leader of nurse anesthetists in Norwegian public hospitals today. Method: Thestudy used a combination of quantitative and qualitative methods, including a survey questionnaire constructed by the author and distributed to all first-line managers of nurse anesthetists in 77 Norwegian public hospitals, with a response rate of 80.5 %. The questionnaires were analyzed by quantitative methods. The author also conducted semi-structured individual interviews with seven strategically chosen leaders, both women and men, at hospitals in Norway’s four health regions. The interviews were analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Result: The results showed that leaders give less priority to professional leadership, largely due to many other urgent tasks, and frequently delegate this part of their leadership role to others (e.g., nurse anesthetists working with professional development). In leadership roles, nurse anesthetists focus on health promotion. They describe their managerial role as burdensome, at times even affecting their health. There is not much interest in and hardly any competition for managemen tpositions. Among the leaders, there is a relative dominance of men. Conclusion: Due to altered framework conditions, such as unitary…

▼ AbstractFramed within theoretical discussions on both New Public Management (NPM) theory and New Social Movement (NSM) theory, this thesis explores increasing religiosity in education delivery in secular Turkey. Particularly, it investigates the ways in which two Islamic religious groups, the Gulen Movement (GM) and the Iskenderpasa Cemaati (IC), engage with education as a result of neoliberalization in both the public sphere and public administration. Islam, and especially the Islamic Social Movements (ISMs), play an important role in politics and in the socio-economic spheres; therefore, it is necessary to consider their growing role in the delivery of public services such as education not only in Muslim countries, but also in secular societies. Since education is defined as a public service which has a significant role in the creation of social capital (Putnam, 1993), these movements increased their interest in education systems in order to make their own voice heard during the process of education delivery, or in other words, the creation of social capital. This research combines three different research methods: 1) documentary analysis of official papers from the public administration reforms, government archives, the GM and IC’s own reports and web pages, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and World Bank reports on the Turkish education system; 2) in-depth interviews conducted with parents, teachers and alumni of GM an IC schools; 3) focus group analysis conducted with graduates from the IC and the GM schools. The data collected from the documents and field research suggest that in Turkey, NPM, which was applied to privatized public services and the deregulated public sphere, has created opportunity spaces for Muslims and ISMs to move upward in the social stratification ladder. The result is the emergence of an ISM controlled education service. The GM and the IC are the best examples of this process.The researcher used the GM and the IC as examples of a collective case study. Although both the GM and the IC have emerged in a similar socio-political and economic environment, in which there is an increasing trend of Islamisation in the social structure and neoliberalization in the economy and politics, these movements responded differently to the same changes. The GM has managed to integrate into the new conditions and produced a similar discourse to NPM. Therefore, rather than establishing an Islamic order, the GM focused on political, social and economic wealth by opening education institutions. However, by demonstrating a traditional form of Islam, the IC shows the other face of religious groups in Turkey. For this reason, the researcher refers to the GM as a ‘movement’ and the IC as a ‘cemaat’. Additionally, by being visible in the public sphere and producing a neoliberal discourse, which is parallel with NPM doctrines, the GM managed to develop educational governance that increases secular and pious families’ voices in the education system. This research provides an analysis of…

▼ The purpose of this research is to shed light to the complex relationship of the international alumni and the Finnish higher education institutions (HEIs). This is done by identifying what tasks and roles are designated to the international alumni by the Finnish HEIs in general and specifically regarding education export. The theoretical framework of the research consists of the New Public Management (NPM) and the New Public Governance (NPG) -models. The research was conducted as a series of semi-structured qualitative interviews. The empirical data consisted of the transcribed interviews of the seven elite-informants from two higher education institutions chosen as the research cases. The data was analysed using the inductive methods, first by approaching it with an empirical data-driven approach and then with a theory-driven approach. Research concerning international alumni and the roles and tasks designated to them had not been conducted in Finland before and this inspired the decision to choose this topic. This research indicated three key roles, customer, stakeholder and partner, and nine tasks that the HEIs designate to the international alumni. The identified nine tasks, such as education ambassador and source of leads, can create competitive advantage to any HEI with a functioning international alumni network. The NPM and NPG models provided lenses to recognise what roles and tasks the case-study HEIs designated to the international alumni and why these were chosen. The research showed that the case-study HEIs operated under the premises of the theoretical frame. The international alumni operations in the case-study HEIs are underdeveloped and in preliminary stages, but nevertheless add value to the HEIs and their education export efforts. The results of the research can be used to develop HEIs alumni operations and education export efforts as well as basis for policy changes, such as a Ministry of Education funding mechanism measuring the development of international alumni operations or as a strategic focus where HEIs could distinguish themselves and gain competitive advantage against other HEIs. Further qualitative research can include the development of alumni net-works, the perspective of alumni regarding the identified tasks and roles, the Ministerial policy changes regarding international alumni and the regional effects international alumni might have in areas where the HEIs are located.

▼ Esta tese tem a ver com eficiência – procura-se avaliar, pela primeira vez, o grau de eficiência técnica em organizações municipais de Moçambique. A metodologia utilizada foi qualitativa e quantitativa; foram utilizados inquéritos, entrevistas, análise documental, guião de observação, diário do bordo e aplicado o DEA. Para atingir esses objetivos e, depois de explorar a literatura que serviu de suporte, tanto na construção do IPQ, IPE, guião de observação, procuramos saber com base em inquéritos dirigidos a população alvo do estudo em conjugação com os dados municipais recolhidos (dados sociais e financeiros): Os municípios moçambicanos são geridos de forma eficiente? Qual é o grau de eficiência? Por meio da técnica DEA procuramos avaliar a relação entre os fatores de inputs e outputs selecionados para responder as nossas perguntas de partida. Em geral, os resultados do estudo alcançado mostram que, o grau da Eficiência Relativa na Gestão dos Municípios Moçambicanos é positivo, de acordo com a técnica DEA aplicada no estudo. Todavia, os resultados sugerem que apesar desse grau positivo da eficiência DEA, os efeitos diretos dos outcomes para comunidades locais continuam inócuos. O que sugere que, a eficiência técnica, por si só, não é suficiente. A eficiência depende de vários fatores como, por exemplo a eficiência social, capital humano e financeiro. Neste contexto, a tarefa dos novos gestores municipais de Moçambique, mesmo com boas intenções legislativos na gestão da coisa pública municipal, revela-se muito complexa, frágil e, consequentemente, longe de dar resposta concreta às necessidades estruturais dos munícipes desde o seu ressurgimento em 1998. O que significa que, existe em Moçambique um caminho a ser percorrido para concretização da law in the book em law in action. Veja-se por exemplo, a lei n.º 55/2009, de 12 de Outubro (Gestão por objetivo e avaliação de desempenho) e a lei 15/2010, de 25 de Maio (Racionalização da Gestão de recursos humanos e flexibilidade organizacional) que parecem ainda estarem longe da sua realidade prática (vd. Caps. VII-VIII). O trabalho permitiu conclui que, a introdução da New Public Management em Moçambique, imposto pelas entidades doadoras, não passa de retórica independetemente dos resultados alcançados no(s) país(es) de que a política é originária, já que tem levado ao enfraquecimento das autoridades locais e aumento da intervenção estatal (por exemplo, o Lei n°8/2003, de 19 de Maio) e dando lugar cada vez mais a um novo mapa de pluralismo administrativo (oficiais e não oficiais, formais e não formais) complexo no país e, consequentemente ineficiência técnica global do Sistema de Gestaão de Desempenho na Administração Puública e, em partícula dos municípios sob estudo teoricamente previsto pelo Decretos n.º 55/2009, de 12 de Outubro. Advisors/Committee Members: Rocha, J. A. Oliveira (advisor), Mendes, Silvia M (advisor).

Magistro baigiamajame darbe atskleistos NVV pagrindinės atsiradimo priežastys, principai ir disfunkcijos, išaiškintas NVV evoliucijos į naująjį viešąjį valdymą procesas, nagrinėtos naujojo viešojo valdymo ypatybės bei pateiktos sėkmingo įgyvendinimo galimybės ir būtinos sąlygos. Šie procesai įtakoja valstybės viešosios politikos formavimą ir įgyvendinimą, visuomenės narių padėtį bei šalies ekonominę ir socialinę situaciją. Apžvelgti NVV atsiradimą sąlygoję veiksniai, išanalizuota NVV samprata, pagrindiniai principai ir įgyvendinimo trukdžiai. Nagrinėtas NVV evoliucijos į naująjį viešąjį valdymą procesas bei naujojo viešojo valdymo ištakos, specifika ir elementų visuma. Taip pat aptartos šių laikų naujojo viešojo valdymo ypatybės ir įgyvendinimo sunkumai bei pateiktos problemų sprendimų galimybės. NVV, vadybinių principų taikymas viešajame sektoriuje suponavo daug viešojo valdymo pokyčių, siekė viešojo valdymo procesų efektyvinimo ir teikiamų paslaugų kokybės gerinimo. Dėl įgyvendinimo priemonių parinkimo ir tinkamos aplinkos stokos, NVV sąlygojo daug disfunkcijų, kas įtakojo koncepcijos evoliucionavimo būtinybę. NVV evoliucionavo į naująjį viešąjį valdymą, kuris iškėlė efektyvumo ir demokratiškumo derinimo problemą, socialinės gerovės užtikrinimo svarbą. Viešojo valdymo modernizavimui reikalinga derinti įvairias teorines koncepcijas ir ieškoti tinkamiausių įgyvendinimo priemonių bei galimybių.

Master‘s work exposed the main causes of NPM, basic principles and dysfunctions, explained the evolution process from NPM to the new public governance, analyzed the new public management features, necessary conditions and posibility for successful implementation. These processes influence the public policy formation and implementation, public members‘ status and country‘s economic and social situation. There were reviewed factors of NPM‘s emergence, analyzed NPM concept, the basic principles and interference of implementation, considered the evolution process from NPM to the new public governance and the NPM origins, specificity and the set of elements. There were discussed about new public governance properties in these days and implementation problems as well as problems‘ solutions and capabilities. NPM, managerial principles aiming in the public sector, determined the range of public management changes, pursue the public management processes, improving the efficiency and quality of public services. Due to measures of implementation and the lack of appropriate environment, NPM influence some dysfunctions, which caused a necessity of conpet‘s evolution. NPM has evolved into the new public governance, which elevated the problem of efficiency and democracy coordination and importance of social welfare. To modernize public management there is necessary to combine different theoretical concepts and search for the most appropriate implementation‘s measures and opportunities.

▼ Purpose: Effective financial fraud control requires all Commonwealth agencies to comply with the Commonwealth Fraud Control Guidelines (Attorney-General's Department and Australian National Audit Office, 2004). The focus of this research is the implementation and adoption of the Commonwealth Fraud Control Guidelines in Australian public organisations over the period 2008-09; 2009-10; and 2010-11. The implementation of the Commonwealth Fraud Control Guidelines has taken place in the public sector since the Australian Government launched its Guidelines in 2002 (Attorney-General's Department, 2011). These Guidelines came as a part of the new direction in the Australian public sector, which is known as New Public Management (NPM), in order to improve government performance and enhance financial public accountability. The aim of this study, thus, is to report on the extent of compliance with the Commonwealth Fraud Control Guidelines by Australian Commonwealth Government Organisations, to determine if these Guidelines contribute to the discharge of public financial accountability. Research Design: This relatively small study applies a qualitative content analysis to annual reporting of selected Australian public agencies. Content analysis is used in this study to explore the relationship between the Commonwealth Fraud Control Guidelines and their application, if any, by Australian agencies over the period 2008-09, 2009-10, 2010-11. It intends also to identify the extent to which such application has helped to enhance performance and financial public accountability. The theoretical orientation adopted in this study is built on Institutional Theory. Institutional theory is mainly built on the view that organisations are social systems (Scott, 2001) and thus it is employed as a theoretical frame to find out why organisations adopt particular practices, policies, and procedures (DiMaggio & Powell, 1983; Meyer & Rowan, 1977), and also to explain their actions that are driven by environmental pressures (Scott, 2001). Institutional theorists emphasise that organisations are not only productive bodies, but also social and cultural systems (Scott, 2001). The use of institutional theory as the overall orientation to this study would give a lens through which the collected data can be explored. Thus, it serves as an analytical framework to explore the findings that emerged using the tools of content analysis of various public agencies’ documents. Findings: The collected data of this study has shown that Australian Public Agencies have highly complied with the Commonwealth Fraud Control Guidelines over the period of the study. This high degree of compliance among the study sample would demonstrate that the Commonwealth Fraud Control Guidelines do contribute to public sector financial accountability. The high degree of compliance of public agencies with the Commonwealth Fraud Control Guidelines can be seen as indicating they are simply accepted in order to obtain or maintain legitimacy in their institutional…

▼ In the context of the worst economic shock that the world has experienced for eighty years, the New Zealand Government has announced a campaign to establish "a more focused, efficient and productive public service" (Whitehead, 2009). As the emphasis of managing the performance of the public service swings away from effectiveness and outcomes back towards efficiency and outputs, the practical and underlying tensions of managing within individual agencies remain. This research explored these tensions in relation to the performance measurement and management practices in three of New Zealand's public service agencies, namely Work and Income, Public Prisons and the Community Probation Service. For each of these agencies, the official performance management models as defined in relevant legislation and the agencies' external accountability documents (primarily their statements of intent and annual reports) are described. Note is also made of the 'formal' frameworks encoded within each agency's computer applications. These frameworks are then compared to an analysis of interviewees' descriptions of the performance measurement and management practices in use within those agencies. A framework by which the official, formal and in use performance management models within public service agencies may be better understood and aligned is then explained. This model utilises a competing values framework composed of two axes. The first of these, the rationality of control is explained in terms of the nature of the major functions involved, the ease with which they may be measured and managed, in what forms information is represented and the nature of the rationality employed. It is argued that these factors support models that exist along a continuum that extends from the use of regulative control to control based on shared understandings. The second axis reflects the locus of control and is explained in terms of the political saliency and perceived complexity of the agency's core functions, the extent to which sensegiving activities are internally and/or externally driven (Maitlis, 2005), and the extent to which management invest in the agency's public capital. These factors are used to explain a continuum on which agencies experience more or less operational autonomy and management discretion. The combination of these factors produces four possible models that may be described as: an administrative control model with a principal focus on managing inputs; a rational goal model employing the language of (quasi) markets and a principal focus on outputs; a multiple constituency model that acknowledges the shared responsibility for outcomes and a need to establish 'joined up' mechanisms with other agencies within government and the community; and a professional service model that seeks to manage specific targets and focuses on the processes or activities that managers manage. This model is then applied to each of the case study agencies to reveal the, at times competing, forces that shape performance management practices.
