This authoritative collection reprints in book form some of the most important research papers on the principles and practice of governance in the public sector. Part one reflects on the eclectic nature of public-sector governance research, presenting papers which represent six different perspectives of the meaning of governance in a public sector setting. Parts two and three focus on the relationship between governance structures and public sector management and accountability. The articles presented in part four consider governance within various national and international contexts, such as the IMF and the World Bank, the USA, Europe and Australia together with the impact of globalisation on governance in developing countries. Ron Hodges’ collection will provide an invaluable source of understanding to all those working in the field of public sector governance.
