'This Handbook on civil service systems is truly international and comparative. It covers and compares countries from all continents. It also connects historical (Weberian) legacies to contemporary challenges such as coordination, the hollow state, and trust. Massey's Handbook does not avoid difficult issues for civil service systems such as ruined reforms, fiscal retrenchment, and cultural and political system shocks. Therefore this book is exceptionally rich and stimulating.' Geert Bouckaert, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium While there is no universally accepted definition of civil servant and civil service, this authoritative and informative Handbook compares and contrasts various approaches to organising the structure and activities of different civil service systems. Underpinning theories and frameworks provide a disciplinary perspective from which to explore recurring topics and themes, and international comparisons are made via case studies from Africa, Asia, Australasia, Europe, and North and South America. The expert contributors consider the historical and theoretical context of public administration and public sector management, encompassing issues such as the Weberian legacy, joined-up government and the hollowed-out state thesis. The debate between Anglo-American influenced systems versus the continental European approach to organising the civil service is also addressed.

This book provides a detailed examination of public service reforms in Malta. Focusing on both the trajectory and substance of the reforms, the volume provides a holistic treatment of the public sector in the European Union’s smallest member state. The book is divided into four parts. Part I covers the historical background of public service administration and management in Malta from the 1500s to the 2010s. Part II focuses on recent reforms, begun in 2013, after the election of Prime Minister Joseph Muscat. Each chapter in this part addresses a particular reform theme: transparency and accountability; civil service systems and HR management; service delivery and digitalisation; organisation and management of government reforms; policy making, coordination, and implementation. Part III investigates the internal and external impact of the reforms, reporting and analyzing the results of a survey carried out among government employees and the Maltese population. The book concludes with a chapter on global reform trends that are likely to impact public service delivery in the future. Providing an in-depth view of public service in a small island state, this volume will be useful to researchers and students interested in public sector management, administration, and public policy as well as practitioners, consultants, and government employees.

Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Organisation and administration - Miscellaneous, grade: 2,3, Berlin School of Economics and Law, language: English, abstract: Changing economic conditions, global financial crises and deficit-ridden budgets at the state and federal level are repeatedly giving rise to discussions about the meaning and purpose of the civil service. But it is also the public that no longer accepts the special features of civil service law uncritically. It is primarily financial considerations that give rise to calls for the abolition or at least limitation of the civil service to a core area of government tasks. However, this discussion, which is also emotional in parts, fails to recognize the special legitimacy that is based on the special requirements for state services and entitlements. The civil service is still an integral part of a modern state. The two aspects are indispensably intertwined. It is imperative, however, that the civil service does not disguise itself from social development trends, but rather takes them up, uses them as an opportunity for change and is open to them. It also seems to be in the nature of things, however, that criticism of civil servants does not always exist in principle, but seems to depend on developments over time. This phenomenon can primarily be observed whenever there is a crisis in the economy. Then the discussion about reducing bureaucracy and the demand for "less government" begins. Of course, this is only the case where the state does not provide any services. In the Federal Republic of Germany, civil service and the public sector are regarded as a special feature. With 1.7 million civil servants and 3.3 million salaried employees nationwide, the proportion of civil servants in the public sector is much lower than in other European countries. The extent to which the employment of white-collar workers in the public sector is actually more cost-effective than that of civil servants remains controversial. It is a little-studied scientific field so far. During the civil servant's active phase, the state does not have to pay any social benefits and only has to grant the civil servant an allowance in the event of illness.

This book makes available original case studies on how institutions developed in Singapore. Up until now, these case studies have been used exclusively in Singapore to teach public governance, and have been well-received in the Singapore Civil Service College’s milestone programmes. With this publication, more will be able to access this material. Students, researchers and policy-makers can now use these case studies for pedagogy or to derive insights on Singapore’s approach on governance. Designed around the theme of "building institutions", the case studies also present facets of how institutions developed which are universal to management studies. These case studies highlight a core aspect in the development of institutions, namely, how people and organisations change the culture of institutions, how leaders influence their organisations, and how policies define the systems that build institutions. The book contains 5 case studies, each profiling a unique sector and key institution in Singapore. They present how public agencies and leaders helped to build Singapore institutions over the last forty years. Although there are more cases studies on management and strategy than public policy and administration, there is growing interest in Asian case studies, and more specifically, case studies on Singapore public governance. This collection of case studies on Singapore institutions provides the perspective from Singaporean case writers themselves, on the role of government in Singapore’s development.
