UNIVERSITIES AS AGENCIES Reputation and Professionalization Edited by Tom Christensen, Åse Gornitzka and Francisco O. Ramirez
Public Sector Organizations Series Editors Guy Peters Department of Political Science University of Pittsburgh Pittsburgh, PA, USA Geert Bouckaert Public Management Institute Katholieke Universiteit Leuven Belgium
Organizations are the building blocks of governments. The role of organizations, formal and informal, is most readily apparent in public bureaucracy, but all the institutions of the public sector are comprised of organizations, or have some organizational characteristics that affect their performance. Therefore, if scholars want to understand how governments work, a very good place to start is at the level of organizations involved in delivering services. Likewise, if practitioners want to understand how to be effective in the public sector, they would be well-advised to consider examining the role of organizations and how to make organizations more effective. This series publishes research-based books concerned with organizations in the public sector and covers such issues as: the autonomy of public sector organizations; networks and network analysis; bureaucratic politics; organizational change and leadership; and methodology for studying organizations.
