Teaching Public Administration - Some Useful Sources

Teaching Public Administration - Some Useful Sources

Debates around the nature of the subject often centre around the nature and legacy of New Public Management (NPM). This was a theoretical approach which suggested that business techniques could (and even should) be applied to the public sector in order to enhance efficiency and effectiveness. Many of the central arguments of NPM have since been debunked.

I've added some useful references to research on the history of UK public administration scholarship in my latest blog here: https://iancelliott.co.uk/2020/02/10/some-links-and-research-on-teaching-of-public-administration/
