Managerial Public Administration: Strategy and Structure for a New State

In the 1980s, following the breakup of the international debt crisis, the theme that caught the attention of politicians and policy makers all over the world was structural adjustment, or, in more analytical terms, fiscal adjustment and marketoriented reforms. In the 1990s, although structural adjustment remains a major objective, the emphasis has changed to the reform of the state, and particularly to administrative reform. The central question now is how to rebuild the state—how to redefine a new state in a global world.
