Public Organization Management: The Development of Theory

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Jreisat, Jamil E., PUBLISHER: Praeger, This book explores how the theories and practices of public management have evolved. It covers themes such as political, judicial, and cultural environments. It reviews the influential theoretical developments that represent the intellectual heritage of public administration from Woodrow Wilson and the classics to current schools such as Total Quality Management (TQM) and the drive for reinventing government. The author identifies and explains critical managerial functions such as decisionmaking, communication, leadership, performance evaluation, and the constant search for reform and improvement in public organizations. This comprehensive, in-depth exploration emphasizes the operational and practical consequences of the subject.

Public Management and the Metagovernance of Hierarchies,

Public Management and the Metagovernance of Hierarchies, Networks and Markets: What is modern governance Is it the battle against old-fashioned hierarchy, or is it the restoration of key hierarchical values Is it optimizing network management, or maximizing the benefits of market thinking in the public-sector This book argues that it is the combination of all this. The next question is: In practice, how do successful public managers design and manage combinations of hierarchical, network and market governance In other words: what is their rationale to apply metagovernance Five case-studies show that metagovernance is a public management requisite: it amplifies the variation of actions public managers can take, and it prevents the three ideal-typical governance styles from undermining each other. Similar cases of strategic environmental policy-making in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany and the European Commission and one case of community policing in the Netherlands illustrate that successful public-sector managers are dealing with similar metagovernance challenges in different socio-politico-administrative cultures.

Understanding Organization as Process: Theory for a Tangled

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hernes, Tor, PUBLISHER: Routledge, Organization takes place in a tangled world, intermeshed by changing markets, products, standards, technologies, institutions and social groups. Coming to grips with the complexity and fluidity of organization and management is a persistent problem for scholars and practitioners alike, which is why process issues have received renewed interest in recent years. This book, aimed at scholars and higher level students, frames some of these issues in novel and instructive ways. Process views have existed since before the early Greek philosophers and have made decisive marks in all sciences. Alfred North Whitehead's classic work is a landmark in process philosophy, and his thinking provides renewed impetus to social scientists in search of an expanded framework of process thinking. Theorists such as Niklas Luhmann, Bruno Latour, Karl Weick and James March have contributed significantly towards a process view of organization. In this book, central aspects of their thinking are interpreted and discussed with the help of a broader canvas of process thinking provided by Whitehead. The comparisons do not only allow for interesting connections to be made between the theorists, but they also enable understanding to be made of the thinking behind their respective works. From the analysis, ideas are suggested for a framework for process-based organizational analysis. Advanced students and academics in sociology, organization studies and management studies will find this book useful in its discussion of such subjects as organization theory, process philosophy and process studies.

Restructuring: The Impact of Hospital Organization on

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Clifford, Joyce C. / American Organization of Nurse Executive, PUBLISHER: Jossey-Bass, Hospital restructuring--if not accomplished with care and understanding--can result in significant turmoil and confusion. "Restructuring" attempts to help remedy these negative consequences by vividly describing the behind-the-scenes impact of hospital restructuring on one of the most important components of the hospital workforce--its nursing staff. "Restructuring: The Impact of Hospital Organization on Nursing Leadership" is a careful examination of the evolution of the role of the chief nursing officer (CNO) in hospitals responding to a dramatically changing health care environment. It explores how and why the CNO role is changing and strives to clarify the impact of that change on the management and administration of clinical nursing services. The book's main focus is that nursing, and ultimately the quality of patient care, is strongly influenced by the existence of a chief nursing officer (CNO) and his or her leadership capabilities.

Translation Theory and Development Studies

Translation Theory and Development Studies: This book aims to provide a philosophical underpinning to translation and relate translation to development. The second aim flows from the first section's argument that societies emerge out of, amongst others, complex translational interactions amongst individuals. It will do so by conceptualising translation from a complexity and emergence point of view and relating this view on emergent semiotics to some of the most recent social research. It will further fulfill its aims by providing empirical data from the South African context concerning the relationship between translation and development. The book intends to be interdisciplinary in nature and to foster interdisciplinary research and dialogue by relating the newest trends in translation theory, i.e. agency theory in the sociology of translation, to development theory within sociology. Data in the volume will be drawn from fields that have received very little if any attention in translation studies, i.e. local economic development, the knowledge economy and the informal economy.
