The Management of Public Services in Central Asia - David (previously School of Oriental and African Studies Scott - Bog

This book analyses the ability of the newly independent government in Kyrgyzstan to create a realistic national vision, prepare a strategy, organise and control its public services to deliver the desired result. Covering a fifteen year period and using the case study of the educational sector, the author throws light on many other aspects of a country in transition, in particular, on strategy, implementation and outcomes. A detailed study of institutional transformation in Kyrgyzstan, this book is of interest to academics studying former socialist countries in transition, the history of the Soviet Union and Central Asian studies in general.
