The new public management

Novi javni menadžment (eng. the New Public Management) upravna je doktrina i pokret koji naglašava ekonomske vrijednosti u javnoj upravi, podvrgavanje državne uprave i organizacija javnog sektora tržišnim načelima, kao i metode razvoja poduzetničkog ponašanja u javnoj upravi. Novi javni menadžment u Velikoj Britaniji obilježava nepovjerenje prema javnom sektoru, a cijela doktrina pokrenuta je neoliberalnom ideologijom Margaret Thacher. Reforme u Danskoj su bile spore, kontinuirane, temeljite i pretežno su za cilj imale uvođenje menadžerskih tehnika. Reforme su se u Njemačkoj uglavnom pokretane odozdo (bottom-up), dok ih je u Francuskoj vodila središnja država (top-down).Hrvatska javna uprava je pogođena groznicom agencifikacije, kao jednim od najznačajnijim razvojnim pravcima u javnoj upravi diljem svijeta.The New Public Management is administrative doctrine and movement that emphasizes economic values in public administration, subjecting the state administration and public sector organizations to market principles. It also emphasizes the methods of developing entrepreneurial behaviour in public administration. The New Public Management in the UK was characterised by distrust towards the public sector, and the whole doctrine was initiated by the neo-liberal ideology of Margaret Thatcher. The reforms in Denmark were slow, continuous, thorough and mostly aimed at the introduction of management techniques. While the reforms in Germany were mainly initiated from the bottom up, in France they were conducted by the central government (top-down).Croatian public administration has been affected by an agencification fever, as one of the most important development trends in public administration worldwide
