Recenzii

'In historical depth and comparative sweep Lawrence E. Lynn’s Public Management Old and New is a tour de force.  For starters, it is easily the best comparison of bureaucratic development in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany and France ever written.  Then add that Public Management Old and New is the best written and most sophisticated synthesis of modern public management theory available.  Finally, in Public Management Old and New, Lynn brilliantly puts contemporary state-based public management in the context of the governance perspective.  This book is destined to be a classic.' - H. George Frederickson, Professor, Department of Public Administration, Policy Research Institute, The University of Kansas
'This book would appeal strongly on advanced international public management and comparative courses and is basically a good and lively read'. - Ewan Ferlie, Royal Holloway, University of London, Local Government Studies

'This is both ambitious and accessible. Larry Lynn delivers immense scholarship and uncompromising logic in fine style. A must-read for those who want to understand the field of public management. Larry Lynn is one of the very few scholars with the breadth and depth to carry this off.' - Christopher Pollitt, Erasmus University Rotterdam, the Netherlands and Scientific Director, Netherlands Institute of Government
'Public Management: Old and New is nothing less than an intellectual history of public administration. Larry Lynn convincingly argues that innovations in public management are path dependent, greatly influenced by a nation's history, institutions, and culture. His theme, that the driving force for change in public administration is democracy, establishes Lynn as the scholarly heir to Dwight Waldo. Broad ranging and sweeping in scope, it speaks to both scholars of public administration and other social scientists interested in modern governance.' - Kenneth J. Meier, Texas A&M University, USA
