Description

Navigating the complex landscape of modern administration requires a deep understanding of competing management paradigms. This scholarly work from Springer explores how public managers in Western bureaucracies handle the tensions between hierarchical, network, and market governance. As politicians and scholars introduce a wide variety of management ideas, professionals must decide how to combine these different styles effectively. This book investigates whether public managers follow a specific logic of action or a unique rationale when switching between these governance methods. By examining the feasibility of designing and managing combinations of governance styles, the text provides a foundation for understanding metagovernance in contemporary public administration. It is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of management science and public policy, offering insights into how different organizational structures can be integrated to meet modern administrative challenges.
