| Summary, etc. |
In Greece,two distinct reform paths led to institutional building and economic managerial types of reform. These two reforms, with the exceptionof the period 1996-2004, when both intitutional and economic reforms were attempted, did no attract the same degree of attention. Institutional reforms were more successful than attempts at managerial reforms; reform implementation on the other hand varies. Economic and managerial reforms can be observed with regard to economic competition, the opening of the market, and reducing the size of public sector, all areas where pressure from the EU has been stronger. Decentralization reforms were more important politically than an adminitratively. Citizen 'rights and service delivery were conceived as reforms of democratization and modernization rather than as managerial reforms; agencification' amounted to circumventing existing ministerial structures. Change was incremental, and reformed were minimally guided by the new public management paradigm, because of little emphasis on changes imbued by managerial and economic values. Reform dynamics benefited not only from outside pressure but also from the operation of internal, 'modernizing'forces. - Reproduced. |
