Strategizing and collaborating in the digital transformation of public administration
The purpose of this special issue is to deepen our theoretical understanding and empirical exploration of the interrelations of digital transformation, collaborative governance and how government strategies at multiple levels address and shape these interrelationships. The special issue is based on an open call for papers and also brings together selected research findings from three EU-funded research projects (TROPICO, Co-VAL, and COGOV). All t…
Interrogating “scale” in strategic management-at-scale: Lessons from collaborative governance
While the field of strategic planning and management has mostly focused on single organizations, a new strand of literature on “strategy management at scale” (SMAS) is exploring the way strategic management can address large-scale, cross-organizational, cross-level, often cross-boundary challenges. The appearance of this new strand has coincided with renewed emphasis on concepts such as public value governance, whole-of-government approaches, and…

The contribution of the humanities to the theory and practice of public administration in the 21st century
This Forum Article integrates a range of four contributions which are all underpinned by the conviction that the rediscovery of the humanities may be beneficial to the field of public administration. The first piece examines the contribution that philosophy, as a key discipline of the humanities, can provide to the field of public administration; notably, the piece reflects on the ‘fixation with numbers’ that seems to characterise large part of r…
Bureaucratic Responses to Populist Government: Explaining Foreign Policy (Non‐)Change
Populism has become a defining feature of global politics. As populists become part of elected governments, an increasingly rich literature has been investigating their influence on a country's foreign policy. Nonetheless, such scholarly endeavours have neglected one specific element: the interplay between elective officials and the bureaucracy, notably the diplomatic corps. Through this article, we aim at filling such gap. We address the researc…
Eastern and western philosophies: Rethinking the foundations of public administration
This is the editorial introduction to the special issue ‘Eastern and Western Philosophies: Rethinking the Foundations of Public Administration’. This special issue pursues an important direction of inquiry in the relationship between philosophy and public administration by mobilising in a combined way both eastern and western philosophies to revisit foundational issues in public administration. The papers published in this special issue show that…
The ideational bases of public value co-creation and the philosophy of personalism: Why a relational conception of person matters for solving public problems
Public value co-creation has become one of the most relevant topics in the economic and social sciences in recent years. However, literature on the theme seems quite fragmented; we deem part of the explanation for why there seems not to be consensus on the definition of the nature of the processes of co-creation of value could and should be sought by querying what underlying ontology of the human being, philosophical anthropology and political ph…
Integrating philosophical perspectives into the study of public administration: The contribution of Critical Realism to understanding public value
Philosophical thought may provide an important contribution to the development of the theory and practice of public administration (PA). Notwithstanding such potential, however, philosophical thought has so far been limitedly employed in PA studies. To the extent philosophy has been brought into PA, three philosophies have been mainly used: Pragmatism, strands of Relativism-Constructivism, and Positivism. This paper argues that another philosophi…
Public Administration in Italy in Political and Historical Context: The Craft of the Italian State
Social innovation during turbulent times: A systematic literature review and research agenda
Contemporary societies are affected by profound and often disruptive changes leading to socio-economic turbulence. The COVID-19 pandemic has been one of such changes. Gaining a deeper understanding of how society-based responses – such as social innovation – work during turbulent times is of increased significance. This paper carries out a systematically conducted literature review on the forms of social innovation arisen during the first year of…
Religion, spirituality, faith and public administration: A literature review and outlook
This article originates from the consideration that religion, spirituality and faith affect public administration, its configuration and its workings. Religion, spirituality, and faith are important explanatory factors and part of explanatory frameworks for several fields of inquiry in the field of public administration. Specifically, no literature review has been conducted so far about what has been written on the relationship between religion, …
Bringing Religion into Public Value Theory and Practice: Rationale and Perspectives
Public Value (PV) is a notion and an approach to the governance and management of public services that has gained traction over the past three decades. However, there seems to be a major gap in PV theory: the influence that institutionalized religions have on public life in countries around the world and hence on the ways in which PV notions become acceptable across different countries. This article seeks to address this gap by developing an anal…
Integrating the neo-Weberian state and public value
Two thematic areas have grown in significance in the contemporary scientific literature of public governance, public administration and public management over the past 20 to 30 years: the theory and practice of public value, and theorisation of the neo-Weberian state (NWS). In this paper, we argue that, while these two important thematic areas have so far developed in a mostly unconnected way from each other, they both might benefit from integrat…
Strategizing under conditions of Weberian bureaucracy and ethnic consociationalism
This study employs a single embedded case study design to investigate strategizing processes under conditions of Weberian bureaucracy and ethnic consociationalism. Drawing from a blend of secondary and primary sources, including semi‐structured interviews, observations, and focus group discussions, we harness thematic and narrative qualitative analysis for generating knowledge about strategizing processes under conditions of Weberian bureaucracy …
Contours of a research programme for the study of the relationship of religion and public administration
This is the introductory article to the special issue ‘Religion as an explanatory factor in public administration: Directions for research’. We make the argument that religion matters for understanding public administration, and that the manifold relationships between religion and public administration deserve more systematic investigation. We present and critically consider the papers of this special issue with the goal of delineating the contou…
The long and winding road towards the EU policy of support to Member States public administration reform: History (2000–2021) and prospects
This paper provides an account of how the European Union (EU), and notably the European Commission (EC), has become an actor in its own right in the field of the reform of administration and public services management in Europe, by developing an approach to support Member States in their initiatives to improve public administration and public services. We qualify this process – occurred over the period 2000-2021, with a tremendous acceleration in…
Section Overview: Governance and Management of Social Policy in Europe
The Europe section of the handbook provides an overview of welfare system changes in Europe till early 2020. The European region is of strong interest globally as a number of European countries were early pioneers in developing the modern welfare state after the model was introduced in Germany and the United Kingdom. Moreover, the European Union has played a vital role in shaping the administrative space for social policy in and beyond the region…

Insights into public management from policing: Introduction to the special issue of Public Management Review
This introduction to the special issue aims to bridge the gap between two fields – policing on the one hand and public management on the other – which have seen only sporadic cross-fertilization so far. We begin by outlining the benefits of engaging with policing as a distinctive subject of public management study but one with generalizable and challenging insights for public management. We then provide a brief overview of the papers in the speci…
Public management and policing: A dialectical inquiry
The study of policing offers rich opportunities to test and refine the boundaries of key concepts and theories of public management, yet it is neglected in public management discourse. In this essay, we strike up a conversation between public management and policing studies, arguing that, through this dialectical inquiry, concepts and theories in both fields can be reviewed and improved. We explore areas with particular potential for cross-fertil…

L’administration européenne au défi de la philosophie (et inversement)
Cet article consiste en un dialogue philosophique entre deux experts venus d’horizons différents. Il débute par une série d’interpellations croisées et nourries de leur positionnement respectif, tant à l’égard de la philosophie que dans leur rapport à l’objet « administration ». Après un premier échange où chacun se présente après avoir lu l’autre, le dialogue porte sur les auteurs cardinaux des deux protagonistes pour dériver ensuite sur une con…
Public administration: Context and innovation
Public administration, context and innovation: A framework of analysis
Innovation in public administration (PA) has played a pivotal role in building good governance and has attracted significant attention in the academia. The literature on PA innovation is burgeoning; however, this article argues that there is ‘a missing link’ in the extant literature in that the impacts of variation in context on PA innovation have not been sufficiently investigated. This article elaborates the analytical perspectives on the influ…
A theoretical framework for studying the co-creation of innovative solutions and public value
The expansion of the scope and significance of co-creation in public policy and governance prompts the integration of different theoretical strands that together can help us illuminating the antecedent conditions, the processes of multi-actor collaboration, the creation of innovative solutions, and the assessment of their public value. Exploring the affinities and complementarities of relevant perspectives such as theories of co-creation, public …
Researching Covid-19: A research agenda for public policy and administration scholars
Coronavirus (COVID-19) is one of the defining policy challenges of an era. In this article, we sketch some possible ways in which the public policy and administration community can make an enduring contribution about how to cope with this terrible crisis. We do so by offering some elements that delineate a tentative research agenda for public policy and administration scholars, to be pursued with epistemic humility. We outline the contours of sev…
Strategic management as an enabler of co-creation in public services
The current transformations in society, the economy and the public sector call for the development of more unified theoretical frameworks. This article takes the literature on strategic management as a theoretical entry angle and aims to better understand how the adoption of models of strategic management can enable processes of public value co-creation. Utilising the literature centred on the notion of ‘schools of thought’ in the strategic manag…
NPM, administrative reforms and public service motivation: Improving the dialogue between research agendas
This article makes use of the Italian case of administrative reform to investigate the changes in the public service motivation (PSM) of public employees and managers after two decades of new public management (NPM)-inspired reforms. It emerges that NPM reforms may be associated with a reduction of the stock of PSM; however, important qualifications apply. By providing so far entirely unavailable evidence about PSM in both the public and the priv…
The Dynamics of Devolution Processes in Legalistic Countries: Organizational Change in the Italian Public Sector
The devolution of authority from central to regional and local governments is a widespread trend in many countries. Differences in the outcomes of devolution reforms are often significant, between countries as well as within a country. The work reported in this paper assumes that the dynamics of the implementation process and the way it is affected by the national tradition of governance and by the features of the politico‐administrative system i…
The Role of Politics and Institutions in the Italian Administrative Reform Trajectory
This article applies broad conceptual categories of comparative politics to the explanation of administrative reforms in Italy. It takes as its argument some lines of influence on public sector reform of the features of the party system in Italy, the executive‐legislative balance, the politician‐bureaucrat relationship, and the role of administrative law. In the search for explanations for the trajectory of administrative reform, pre‐existing pol…
EU-driven public sector reforms
This paper is the introduction article to the special issue on EU-driven public sector reforms. European Union (EU) governance has dramatically changed since the outburst of the financial, economic and fiscal crises in 2007–2008. The dramatically changed circumstances have led to heightened EU influence in the field of the organization of the public sector of Member States, leading to major reforms of the public sector of Member States under cond…
Strategic Management in Public Organizations: Profiling the Public Entrepreneur as Strategist
Our core argument is that the entrepreneurial school of thought in strategic management as conceptualized by Mintzberg and colleagues holds explanatory value for advancing knowledge about the behavior of public sector organizations, as it does for private firms, albeit with important qualifications when applied to public services: chiefly, the temporal limitation in post for the office-holder of a public organization. After describing our methods…
The administrative reform trajectory of the European Commission in comparative perspective: Historical new institutionalism in compound systems
The European Commission has undergone successive waves of public management reforms since the second half of the 1990s that have led to substantive administrative change. This contribution aims at explaining how the “unique” politico-administrative context of the European Union affected the trajectory of reform of the Commission, compared with trajectories of reform of the public sector at the national level. On the basis of such analysis, the Po…
EU agencies: What is common and what is distinctive compared with national-level public agencies
The number and relevance of EU agencies have rapidly increased over the years: EU agencies nowadays constitute an important part of the EU institutional landscape. The article investigates the EU agencies through categories of analysis well established in studies of public management focused on the phenomenon of agencies at the country level: structural disaggregation, autonomy, and contractualization. It emerges that EU agencies are relatively h…

Toward Multi-Level Governance in China? Coping with complex public affairs across jurisdictions and organizations
This special issue argues for the applicability of the conceptual framework of Multi-Level Governance to the political–administrative regime of China, provided significant adaptations and qualifications are developed. The application of Multi-Level Governance to China enables to account for global influences as well as for the involvement of non-governmental actors in public policy making. More radically, we suggest in this introductory article t…

Failed policies but institutional innovation through “layering” and “diffusion” in Spanish central administration
Purpose This paper aims to show that the Spanish central administration, as a representative of the Napoleonic tradition, has undergone considerable managerial changes in non‐autonomous and semi‐autonomous agencies characterised by their direct involvement in service delivery in spite of the failure of macro‐changes and radical reforms of public administration. Design/methodology/approach This paper provides case studies of “paths” of changes in …

Public Management Reform and Modernization: Trajectories of Administrative Change in Italy, France, Greece, Portugal and Spain
Since the 1980s, a wave of reforms of public management has swept the world. The investigation into the effects of such major transformations has, however, been unbalanced: important countries have received only limited attention. This timely book fills the gap by investigating the dynamics of contemporary public management reform in five European countries that gave shape to the Napoleonic administrative tradition – France, Greece, Italy, Portug…

Innovation-Oriented Culture in the Public Sector: Do managerial autonomy and result control lead to innovation?
This article examines the effect of specific new public management (NPM)-related characteristics to explain innovation-oriented culture within public sector organizations. According to NPM doctrines, an enhanced managerial autonomy combined with result control will stimulate a more innovation-oriented culture in such organizations. Using multi-country survey data of over 200 public sector agencies, we test for the influence of organizational auto…

Learning-Shaping Crises: A Longitudinal Comparison of Public Personnel Reforms in Italy, 1992‒2014
This article analyses the attempts to reform public administration, notably personnel management, in Italy between 1992 and 2014, with a focus on implementation and the period following the multiple crises that have unfolded since 2008. By untangling the policy learning processes between multiple crises, past reform attempts and domestic and European “contexts in motion”, the article finds that efficiency-oriented reforms have floundered regardle…
Languages and Public Administration in Europe
One of the key features of public administration in Europe is that multiple languages are in use, both in the public and academic debates. Language shapes thought, debate and hence also research. To find out which problems researchers run into when they want to convey results of their research and the debates on public administration to academics and practitioners in other countries, we have asked a number of scholars to describe how several key …

Public Administration and Public Management Research in Europe: Traditions and Trends
The chapter reviews the evolution of the state of the art of research in public administration and management in Europe since WWII. It argues that a pan-European community has developed, flanking and in many respects integrating the distinct national communities that characterised the field till the 1970s/1980s. After a bibliographical review of the main themes that catalyse the interest of PA scholars, it focuses on the most researched theme in …
Conclusions
The various chapters in this handbook show that public administration as a science has developed very strongly in Europe, leading to more publications and increased presence in the international debates, both in academia as well as in practice. A research agenda is described calling for more research using new theories and methods (e.g. behavioural public administration and experiments), focusing on new(er) topics (e.g. public procurement, implem…
Too big to fail? The dynamics of EU influence and fiscal consolidation in Italy and Spain (2008–2016)
The article studies the dynamics of fiscal consolidation and public sector reforms in Italy and Spain under the EU governance that took shape as a reaction to the Eurozone crisis. We show how three types of EU pressure – fiscal and economic coordination rules, conditionality, and back-room diplomacy have operated in conjunction. We also show that Italy was more willing than Spain to resist EU pressure. Based on a Two-Level Game framework, we argu…
