330   $aAs policy makers evaluate options in the reform and renewal of public services, this book offers an in-depth analysis of the development of the "Scandic" way of modernizing the public sector management. Organised into themes of management, governance and marketization, the contents revolve around empirical accounts, revealing distinctive Scandic characteristics of reform initiatives.   This book reveals a radical edginess, particularly in Sweden, which is a largely unrecognized. Without compromising the welfare state, it may be a bold frontrunner in the development of the New Public Management. Researchers, advanced students and policy makers will find this innovative collection invaluable.
