Book Description
Ce livre se penche sur ce que le nouveau management public nous révèle sur les transformations de la notion de démocratie dans un espace politique de plus en plus complexe et technocratique, où le contrôle des citoyens sur les autorités publiques par la voie représentative, aujourd'hui largement considéré comme défaillant, peut être renforcé par les nouveaux dispositifs de reddition des comptes ou de participation du public.

Book Description
Ce livre propose un bilan comparatif de la modernisation du service public depuis 30 ans, l'auteur ayant eu le privilège d'y participer directement dans plusieurs pays. Les changements introduits au cours des dernières décennies dans les services publics ont, pour la plupart, été présentés comme des rationalisations des organisations, plus du point de vue des économies de gestion que de l’efficacité et de l'utilité pour le citoyen. Cette vision est réductrice. Un service public est-il une organisation comme une autre ? Sous une apparence de rationalité gestionnaire, quelles étaient les hypothèses sur le rôle de l’État et les valeurs d’une démocratie ? À partir de ce bilan, l’ouvrage identifie des pistes pour évoluer progressivement vers un État moins procédural, hiérarchique, rigide, instrumentalisé, coupé en large part de la société et du monde. Il montre l'opportunité et la faisabilité d'une évolution du management public qui ne se focaliserait pas sur les outils mais centrerait ses réformes et son action autour de finalités politiques porteuses de sens. Il est en effet illusoire de tenter de disjoindre la réflexion sur le management public et la réflexion sur l'évolution de la société, des valeurs et de la démocratie. Du management aux politiques publiques : comment faire? Ce livre intéressera tous les responsables publics, les chercheurs en Management public, les étudiants et doctorants en Sciences de Gestion, Droit, Sciences Po, ainsi que dans les centres de formation de fonctionnaires.

Book Description
Within democratic states, parliaments have always been regarded as playing a pivotal role in the creation of rules. Through its composition, parliament represents the opinions and interests of society, which it serves through the legislative process. But in an increasingly globalized world, nation-states are confronted with issues that require international cooperation, expert knowledge and flexibility to resolve. Rather than taking the lead, parliaments are increasingly settling for a managerial position and have begun to outsource their rulemaking powers (and other constitutional responsibilities) rather than exercising them themselves. Outsourcing Rulemaking Powers identifies the shared constitutional principles that determine the limits to the outsourcing of rulemaking powers. It asks fundamental questions of its readers, such as: which powers should be outsourced? And to whom? What mechanisms are in place to guarantee the quality of the rules they make? Through the examination of multiple countries, this book argues that there should be minimal legal safeguards to which all rules must heed, in particular those made by autonomous public or private actors. Offering a bridge between traditional constitutional law and transnational private law, this book will be of interest to both practitioners and scholars within the global communities of comparative constitutionalism, global administrative law and transnational private law.

Book Description
This volume takes a global view of the emergence of public protest movements over the last decade, asking whether such movements contribute to the globalization of civil society. Through a variety of studies, organised around the themes of public agency, public norms, public memory and public art, it considers the tendency of political contestations to move beyond national boundaries and create transnational connections. Departing from the approaches of social movements perspectives, it focuses on public space as a site of social "mixity" and opens up a new field for the study of politics and cultural controversies. An analysis of the paradigmatic change in the way in which society is made and politics is conducted, this study of the new enactment of citizenship in public space will appeal to scholars of sociology, anthropology, geography and politics with interests in protest movements and contentious politics, citizenship and the public sphere, and globalization.

Book Description
The Oxford Handbook of French Politics provides a comprehensive and comparative overview of the French political system through the lens of political science. The Handbook is organized into three parts: the first part identifies foundational concepts for the French case, including chapters on republicanism and social welfare; the second part focuses on thematic large-scale processes, such identity, governance, and globalization; while the third part examines a wide range of issues relating to substantive politics and policy, among which are chapters on political representation, political culture, social movements, economic policy, gender policy, and defense and security policy. The volume brings together established and emerging scholars and seeks to examine the French political system from a comparative perspective. The contributors provide a state-of-the-art review both of the comparative scholarly literature and the study of the French case, making The Oxford Handbook of French Politics an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the foundations of contemporary political life in France.
