TY - BOOK AU - Christensen, Tom AU - Fan, Yongmao TI - Post-new public management: a new administrative paradigm for China? PY - 2018/// KW - New public management - China KW - Public administration KW - Public administration - China N2 - From three theoretical perspectives � instrumental, cultural and mythical � this article analyses the reasons for the worldwide emergence of post-New Public Management reforms and summarizes the typical features of those measures. In particular, it explores the link between post-New Public Management and public-sector reforms in China and argues that the ongoing reforms in China, including the super-ministry reform, the regulation of industry, the affordable housing policy, social and healthcare reforms, and the anti-corruption campaign, have shed light on various aspects of post-New Public Management measures. However, because China�s complex public administrative systems are more centralized than they are in many Western countries, it faces big challenges in deciding on and implementing reforms. - Reproduced BR - AR118579 ER -
