Abstract

Compared to the private sector, the public sector largely depends on political leadership rather than a managerial framework reacting to an active and efficient market. The wave of reform in the public sector across countries brought structural adjustments to the economy and senior public management in state-owned enterprises (SOEs) as well. This dissertation investigates the impact of new public management (NPM) at less developed countries, in general, and in particular at the management of state-owned enterprises in China. To this aim, qualitative content analysis is used to set up a fruitful procedure analyzing the features of reforms in the Chines SOEs. The framework of doctrines proposed by Hood (1995) is used. As a result, this dissertation presents key explanations for the outcomes of new public management in China or any reactions to its longer-term impacts. It is hoped that questions raised by this dissertation will stimulate additional valuable research on management perspectives in both the public and private sectors.
