520 | _aNew public governance: a regime-centered perspective focuses on a different set of issues than those commonly found in the emerging work on new public governance (NPG). The chapters are organized around the following central questions: What can we do to ensure that the structures and processes of authority in networked governance systems are firmly tethered to the underlying core values and legal principles of the political system? the book argues that NPG requires public administrators to be much clearer than they have been in the past about the constitutional and political values that provide th framework for their work. Chapters are written by scholars who have been at the forefront of the NPG debate as well as by scholar-practitioners, this book provides lessons learned from experience on how networked, contract-based and partnership-centered approaches to government can be undertaken in ways that preserve the values at the center of the American constitutional and political system. - From the Book | ||
