Description

Explore the shifting landscape of public sector reform with Reasserting the Public in Public Services. For twenty years, privatization led the reform agenda, but recent trends show states are regaining control in many sectors. This book examines why privatization has not always met its intended goals, particularly within essential public service sectors. Part of the Routledge Studies in Governance and Public Policy series, this volume provides a systematic look at how states are reasserting themselves in service delivery. It offers a deep look into emerging patterns and the changing role of the state under new arrangements. This landmark collection brings together perspectives from leading social scientists, including B. Guy Peters, Anthony Cheung, and Jon Pierre. It is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals studying governance, public policy, and the evolution of state involvement in the modern world.
