Comments/contents:
It is of vital importance to recognize the international context public organizations are embedded in if one wants to understand public administrations and the management of public organizations. Different countries developed different public administration regimes, and it is very instructive to analyze differences and commonalities between these regimes. Moreover, national public organizations are in nearly all aspects of their work affected by decisions made on an international and European level. It is important to understand how they are affected and how they cope with it. Also, the international and European sphere also developed public administrations which need to be managed.
The course will reflect on these international and European aspects of public administration and addresses the following topics:
- Management of international and European public organizations
- Public administration in a comparative perspective
- Influence of internationalization and Europeanization on the management of national public administrations
