Download or read book Democracy and Public Management Reform written by Luiz Carlos Bresser-Pereira and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2004-10-07 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building the Republican State is an insightful analysis of the new state and the new public management that is emerging in the twenty-first century. It presents the historical stages that led to the modern state, identifies a crisis of the nation-state and its origins in a fiscal crisis and in globalization, and situates public management in the last phase - the social-liberal and republican state. To understand such stages the author develops the theory of republicanrights, as a fourth type of citizenship right, after the civil, the political, and the social rights.The book contains an original model of reform, in which the roles of the state, the forms of ownership, the types of public administration, and the organizational-institutions indicated in each situation are put together. Additionally, the book discusses the political theories behind the reform, and its political implications. Throughout the book, the author underlines the complementary roles of markets and the state, and the importance of building state capacity to assure administrativeefficiency, always having in count the 'democratic constraint', i.e., the prevalence of the political over the economic realm.This is essential reading both for those studying political theory and government reform, as well as for anyone interested in state politics and globalization.

Lawrence Boudon, of the Library of Congress Hispanic Division, has been the editor since 2000, and Katherine D. McCann has been assistant editor since 1999.

Download or read book Reinventing Leviathan written by Ben Ross Schneider and published by University of Miami Iberian Studies Institute. This book was released on 2003 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars and development practitioners agree that developing countries urgently need cohesive administrative reforms to consolidate new market economies, promote sustainable development, and improve social welfare. Reinventing Leviathan provides extensive comparative research on the political processes that facilitate or block efforts designed to improve administrative performance. Studies of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Hungary, Mexico, and Thailand highlight distinctive patterns of reform, tracing the process from the prereform position of the bureaucracy to the design of reform packages and the contentious politics of implementation. The authors use a common framework to assess the relative importance of political institutions, international influences, social groups, and reform strategies. They relate their core findings both to practical policy debates and to broader theoretical discussions in the social sciences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resulta irónico pensar, que los académicos e historiadores dominicanos en su visión general sobre la historia de la vida republicana de la nación, solamente reconozcan los siguientes períodos históricos; a saber: a).- Primera República del 1844; b).- Segunda República del 1865; c).- Tercera República del 1924; y d).- Cuarta República del 1966 hasta nuestros días presentes.. Ignorar en los anales de la histórica de la nación dominicana, el proceso político de la reconstrucción de la vida republicana, es ignorar el resurgimiento de la vida republicana, que conocemos como la Cuarta República comprendido en el período 1962-1963. Por Tanto, el Proyecto Político la Sexta República, es la única oportunidad que tiene el pueblo soberano de conquistar y restablecer el ordenamiento jurídico y los derechos conculcados en la Constitución del año 1963, mediante la Reconstrucción de un proyecto Nación definido en el contrato social proclamado en la "Sexta República".
