This paper focuses on the balance between superior governmental control and enterprise autonomy by examining the Norwegian Hospital Reform. We describe the enterprise model and give a description of the policy instruments that the government, as owner, has for exercising power and control vis-à-vis the health enterprises. How the trade-off between autonomy and control is experienced and practiced is analyzed by use of survey data collected among regional executive board members, and illustrative cases. The trade-off can be characterized as ambiguous and unstable and we ask if it is possible to achieve a plus-sum game between political control and autonomy.Dette notatet fokuserer på balansen mellom overordnet politisk kontroll og foretaksaut...
