This book explains the basic concepts of the performance management, including the achievement of government goals, management capacity, administrative efficiency and policy effects. Taking Hangzhou, one of the largest cities in China, as an example, the book offers readers a new dimension through which the government can be understood and reformed—performance. Performance management has become an important component of public administration in China, and its use is beneficial in evaluating performance and social benefit. It also incentivizes civil servants to become more motivated and innovative, prevents the development of a bureaucratic atmosphere and facilitates communication between the public sector and the people. The book first introduces the concept of the performance management, providing a detailed description of its history, basic theories and its development. It then discusses the evolution of the system (from objective-based responsibility system evaluation to “vote for excellence”), its three basic areas (performance management on the national, local and municipal levels) and its key components: openness, democracy, accountability and performance. This book allows readers to gain a deeper understanding of the importance of government performance management in China and its contribution to the modernization of state governance and political legitimacy.

Have the underlying ideas behind New Public Management (NPM) been forgotten ? This book investigates whether this idea is reflected in the real world of public administration or if it is mere wishful thinking. The investigations in this volume comprise studies of not only European countries, but also major Asian, African and Latin-American countries, that is, countries of which much less is known regarding the developments in Public Administration reform. It provides the reader with a remarkable overview of what is actually happening in countries all over the world. More importantly, the chapters provide ample information which is indicative for an answer to the question raised above: What has remained of NPM and what is the role of NPM tools in public administration today?

Providing quality public service is one of the essential functions of a government. In the turbulent time, however, governments worldwide are experiencing a variety of unprecedented challenges to meet citizens'' increasing demands and expectations. In China, building a service-oriented government and a harmonious society is central to the 12th Five-Year Plan and challenges the governance philosophies, capacities and competencies of Chinese government at every level. Researchers of Nanyang Centre for Public Administration (NCPA) at Nanyang Technological University systematically examined the concept of service-oriented government in the context of China and developed an assessment scheme to evaluate the performance of building service-oriented government in Chinese cities. Under the auspices of the Lien Foundation in Singapore, based on the assessment scheme, they conducted large-scale telephone surveys of citizens and businesses in 32 major Chinese cities in 2011. This book presents their findings and empirical studies on public service performance, citizen satisfaction, political trust and government transparency based on the data collected from the 2011 Lien project. Moreover, it also includes selected papers presented at the 2012 Lien International Conference on Public Administration in Singapore. Contributed by scholars from Mainland China, the US, Hong Kong and Singapore, these papers discuss various important issues related with building a service-oriented government including public ethical values, the roles of NGO, social accountability, urban integration, performance measurement and emotional labor in public service.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled "China's Civil Service Reform and Local Government Performance: A Principal-Agent Perspective" Submitted by Wang Xiaoqi for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong May 2006 This dissertation has examined the impacts of China's Civil Service Reform on the performance of government agencies in charge of environmental protection and education in three cities (Haidian district of Beijing, Changchun, and Ningbo). I have explored China's Civil Service Reform and its impact on local government performance within a principal-agent framework. Because of information asymmetry and conflict of interest, bureaucratic superiors on three hierarchical levels within the old Cadre Management System had trouble in obtaining full compliance from their bureaucratic subordinates. But, being rational, the bureaucratic superiors (especially the central leadership of the Chinese Communist Party) design rules and institutions to mitigate the problems. The introduction of China's Civil Service System in 1993 is one such effort to i manage cadres. The crucial outputs and outcomes of China's Civil Service Reform are the major focus of this study. In particular, this dissertation aims to answer the following related questions. How have the new sets of rules or initiatives shaped the incentives facing the civil servants and thus influenced the way they exercise their discretion (this being the managerial goal of the reforms)? How do the Reforms affect the ability of the Chinese leadership to control the bureaucracy (the political goal of the reforms), and what are the implications of the Reforms for the relationships among the political leadership, the bureaucrats, and the citizens? How might we explain the variations in reform implementations and performance across policy areas and regions after China's adoption of the Civil Service System? I find that components of China's Civil Service Reform provide superiors solutions to alleviate the control problems, which were embedded in three hierarchical levels of Chinese government, through incentive-alignment and information discovery. The alleviations of control problems manifest themselves in the improvement of local government performance, which is measured by objective indicators and citizen survey data in this study. In general, I find the managerial and political objectives of China's Civil Service Reform have been met. As the outputs of the reforms, evidence suggests civil service quality has improved and local governments have adopted and implemented China's Civil Service System to a large extent. Moreover, the implementation of China's ii Civil Service System has motivated the civil servants to put more conscious effort into their work and accordingly adjust the way they treat their clients. Referring to the outcomes of the reforms, the implementation of the components of China's Civil Service System and other administrative monitoring mechanisms has helped the central leadership in China to successfully strengthen control over the local governments and the local bureaucrats. The strengthened control of the bureaucracy has manifested itself in better provision and delivery of public services, which in turn leads to increased citizen satisfaction with regard to government performance. All these illustrate that local government

Written by leading experts, Public Administration in East Asia: Mainland China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan examines the inner workings of governments in East Asia, in particular its public administration and related public policy processes. It focuses on the apparatus of government — the agencies, their values, context, and policies within which they operate. Organized in parallel sections, the book covers the history, public policy processes, organization, HRM, ethics, corruption, intergovernmental relations, performance management, and e-government. It discusses each of these topics separately for Mainland China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan, providing an unusual and important comparative perspective. The book includes essential knowledge and facts, discussions of emerging issues, and useful resources for further reading. It addresses questions such as: What is the history of public administration in East Asia? How are decisions made? What is the role of Confucianism in shaping public administration? How does the developmental path affect public administration? Why is performance management emphasized? What is the state of citizen participation? How are ethical underpinnings of the civil service different from the West? Why are intergovernmental relations an essential issue in East Asia? What are the politics behind world-class achievements in IT? What is the nature of civil service reform? What is the nature of efforts to combat government corruption? You can find many books on trade policy and politics that sometimes give good insight into the operation of government agencies. You can also find a few edited books that contain single chapters on countries in the Asia-Pacific region. What is missing, however, is a single resource that provides an overview with depth on matters solely about public administration. This state-of-the-art resource brings together the fragments of existing knowledge on East Asian economies, filling the need for a comprehensive compendium that showcases the public administration practices in the region and East Asia’s innovative approaches to governance and its many challenges.

After over a decade of administrative and economic reform in mainland China, the center has become increasingly remote and less important for many localities. In many ways, the mobilization capacity of the central government has been weakened. Central government policies are often ignored and local officials are often more interested in personal projects than in centrally directed economic plans. In this study of local government and politics in China, the author explores when and why local government officials comply with policy directives from above. Drawing on interviews with government officials in various municipalities and a review of county records and other government documents, he provides the first in-depth look at policy implementation at the county and township levels in the PRC. The book examines the impact of the Chinese cadre system on the behavior of local officials, local party and government structure, relationships among various levels of Chinese local government, policy supervision mechanisms at local levels, village governance of China, and more.
