Teoría de la organización y administración pública
Author: Carles Ramió
Publisher:
ISBN: 9788430934508
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : es
Pages : 0
Book Description
Las Administraciones públicas agrupan en cualquier Estado un enorme volumen de organizaciones que gestionan servicios, definen políticas públicas, están bajo las órdenes de unas instancias políticas..., pero que, ante todo, son organizaciones con aciertos, expectativas, problemas y dilemas de carácter organizativo. Por su naturaleza pública son unas organizaciones muy especiales y exigen un tratamiento específico y diferente al de las organizaciones privadas. Este libro presenta, por una parte, los temas clásicos en cualquier manual de organización: perspectivas de la Teoría de la Organización, análisis de estructuras administrativas, recursos humanos, procedimientos y sistemas de control de gestión y, por otra parte, temas más novedosos que han sido escasamente tratados por la literatura: poder y conflicto, cultura organizativa, las organizaciones públicas como prestadoras de servicios y el cambio organizativo. El libro está concebido como un manual, y en él se incluyen numerosos gráficos, tablas, ejemplos, textos aclaratorios, etc. Al final de cada capítulo se recogen experiencias y casos prácticos.

The Politics of Management Knowledge
Author: Professor Stewart R Clegg
Publisher: SAGE
ISBN: 9781446238394
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
The notion that management knowledge is universal, culture-neutral, readily transferable to any country or situation, has come under mounting challenge. The Politics of Management Knowledge goes beyond such broad-brush' assertions to explore in detail the relations between management knowledge, power and practice in a world where globalization highlights, rather than obscures, the locally specific character of many management recipes. The book recognizes the political nature of management knowledge as a discourse produced from, and reproducing, power processes within and between organizations. This theme underpins discussion of the ways in which management ideas and practices produce' managers of a particular kind - person of enterprise, bureaucrat, heroic leader and so on. Critical examinations of certain current management theories - lean production, excellence, entrepreneurship - illuminate the myriad modes in which relations of power intermingle with relations of knowledge. Eminent authors from a variety of countries address the social and political processes involved in cross-cultural transference of management ideas across the world. They also look to the future, stressing the need for a substantial new understanding that is less attuned to the corporate worlds of today and more appropriate for the increasingly diverse organizations likely to emerge in the twenty-first century.

Local Governance in Spain
Author: Ángel Iglesias Alonso
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031148045
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
The book addresses in detail local governance in Spain. In recent decades, local governments in Europe have increasingly found themselves under pressure from a multitude of new challenges, such as demographic change, climate change, fiscal austerity policies, digitization, the demand for more citizen participation in local affairs, and the migration crisis in some of them, to name just a few. Consequently, a wave of political and administrative reforms to address these challenges, pressures and problems, has changed local governance in many countries. In part, these changes were the result of reform policies introduced by national and state governments, often triggered by austerity policies, which has become an overwhelming reality for Spanish local governments that have been forced to introduce innovations in local governance. This book aims to give an account of these innovations in local governance in Spain. This book considers the local political-administrative structure in its dimensions, focusing on the analysis of its party system, electoral competition and political behavior in the local arena, as well as on local finances, all of which are determining elements in urban and rural governance processes. On the occasion of the recent crisis unleashed by Covid-19, the book will also deal with local governance in crisis situations. The book will also contextualize local governance processes in Spain in relation to the trends in local governance observed in other European countries.

ISBN: 3319445820
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 401
Book Description
This book presents a set of original and innovative contributions on state, institutions and democracy in the field of political economy.

The analysis of the role and performance of politics and democracy in diverse nations implies the study of the organization of the state, lobbying, political participation, public policies, electoral politics, public administration and the provision of public services. This book provides advances in the research frontier of these topics and combines historical evidence, institutional analysis, mathematical models and empirical analysis in an interdisciplinary approach. Political and social scientists, economists and those interested in the performance of states, democracy and elections can find new research results in this volume.
