| Summary, etc. |
This article, the final part of the symposium, concentrates on the common characteristics of Southern European states and administrations that can explain the distinctiveness of the reforms there. First, we briefly consider he theoretical aspect of the country papers, that is, historical institutionalism. We then briefly review some common features of contextual factors such as welfare state, economy and civic culture. This is followed by a discussion of some typical characteristics of Southern European administrations: legalism, politicization and clientelism. Finally we discus some common features of reform in Southern Europe. Reform in the region encompasses not only new public management; other reforms have also occured. Hoccued. However, political polarization means these countries lack the stability necessary to implement and carry out reform effectively. In terms of improvements in quality, efficency and client orientation of pubnlic service provison, the far-reaching politicization of the civil service gives a distinctive twist to any such claims. - Reproduced. |
