TRANSFORMATION OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AND THE APPROACH OF GOVERNANCE

Abstract

A process of transformation that almost affects the whole world public administrations in the whole world beginning from the first half of the 1980s and makes changeovers in the structures of classical public administrations has revealed new expectations in the field of public administration especially with the inducing of the global dynamics. The reason behind is the inadequacy of bureaucratic mechanism of classical public administrations that become clumsy day by day to meet the demands of the citizens cause new expectations. On the other hand, undoubtedly, this reconstruction attempt that pretend to respond to citizen expectations is no doubt not an easy process. This study analyses the restructuring of the government with the alteration in the systems of public administration and how the role and function of government redefined in this restructuring by centralizing the concept of ―governance‖. Within this scope it has been analysed; the period of change in the understanding of public administration, the basic dynamics of the change, the development of governance consideration and the reflections of the change to passing to governance and to the implementation.
