Maturation of public administration in a multicultural environment: lessons from the Anglo-Saxon, Latin, and Scandinavian political traditions - 2004 - p.519-28.
A comparative analysis is made of three different models of public administration; the Anglo-Saxon, the Latin, and the Scandinavian. The purpose of this comparison is to analyze how these ideal-types of public administration handle the issue of power. Our argument is that without understanding and facing the issue of the amount of power that bureaucrats and politicians possess in any society, public administration will continue to be handicapped to understand the dynamics of the real world and therefore grow as a discipline. This is so despite the universalist claims of the currently fashionable ideas of the New Public Management. - Reproduced.
