| Summary |
"Following the extensive global impact of COVID-19, this forward-looking Research Handbook examines the pandemic from a public management perspective, exploring the roles and responses of public managers and considering how public organisations will be reshaped in the future. This Research Handbook brings together a wealth of established and early career international scholars who offer summative and comparative analyses of jurisdictions' pandemic responses, alongside vital in-depth studies of jurisdictional pandemic experiences. Chapters interrogate public management successes and failures in response to the pandemic, the systemic inequalities highlighted by the pandemic, how the pandemic challenged public managers and political leaders, and crucially how the pandemic challenged fundamental concepts of public management. Offering key advice as to how public management can adapt and reorient going forward, this Research Handbook is a vital contribution to the developing discussion and debate taking place within this discipline. Exploring a broad range of key concepts in the field, this book will be an invaluable read for students, academics and researchers of public management, public administration, health care management, sociology and social policy. Providing important data relating to crisis response, this book will also be of practical benefit to public leaders and their professional teams when coordinating action in emergency situations"-- Provided by publisher |
