Considerably less is known about the feasibility of adopting NPM reforms in countries such as Israel, in which national bureaucracies never gained a high degree of institutional identity, administrative, expertise, or autonomous power. What strategies and designs are appropriate for instituting such reforms and what barriers may they face? Israel's well designed effort to create self sustaining administrative reform during 1994 through 1996 reveals both workable approaches and some of their limits. Considering the Israeli case along with other single-country studies can enrich our explanatory and prescriptive theories of administrative reform. - Reproduced  aPublic administration  aAdministrative reform  aYaroni, Allon  aRosenbloom, David H.  aAdministration and Society
