New Territorial Public Management and Sustainable Development - Godé Atshwel-Okel Muntungi - Bog

Many Western countries are carrying out reforms in response to criticism, notably of the inertia and immobility of Weberian bureaucracy in the face of socio-economic change, the difficulties of the State in controlling expenditure and reducing public deficits, etc. All marked by the new public management, these reforms introduce a model based on the logic of the market. Indeed, a deep malaise is affecting the management of rural local authorities/sectors in the Democratic Republic of Congo. In view of the stagnation in these supposedly autonomous entities, it has become imperative to rethink the way they are managed. Without hesitation, the new public management is targeted as a globalizing field of research.The new conventional and partnership-based approach to new public management to which we allude contains two important aspects: the first is a vision focused on convention, which has made it possible to detect political, local public service and socio-economic players, and the second is a partnership-based vision through "public-private" and "public-public" partnerships.
