A perfect copy. - Summary: Public administration has traditionally been characterised with such bureaucratic features as hierarchical and formalised organisational structure, clear and rigid career paths, lifetime tenure, full-time employment, principle of seniority, advantageous pension schemes and rigid remuneration systems. These features were introduced in late 19th century to reduce the risk of excessive political influence, corruption, misconduct and instability of government. Today, however, numerous administrative and managerial reforms are affecting these longstanding aspects of public employment. Size and composition of workforce, its working and employment conditions, nature of work, and values and legal status are all undergoing a process of change. The various reforms are also gradually shrinking the size of central public administrations of the EU-27 Member States. They are becoming more decentralised and fragmented, more diversified, more aligned and less specific. The on-going financial crisis and the introduction of hasty austerity measures have a strong impact on the public workforce in most EU Member States. So far, restructuring programmes and effects of austerity measures have not been a subject of rigorous scrutiny. Similarly, the effects of public management reforms have not been studied either and have resulted in national administrations having no longer a single coherent framework. Filling this important gap, this comparative study attempts to assess the effects of these developments in public employment in the central public administrations of the EU Member States offering insight into the future of public employment. - Contents: 1 Introduction -- 2 Methodology -- 3 Definition of status in the Member States of the EU - 3.1 Public law status - 3.2 Status as social or professional standing - 3.3 Status as public service ethos - 3.4 Conclusions -- 4 Status in a time perspective: reform factors and reform pressures - 4.1 Status in a historical context -- 4.2 From public administration to public management and governance: implications for the public status - 4.3 Change of work and work ethos - from status to virtual workplaces - 4.4 Governance and public employment restructuring: new instruments, what effects? -- 5 Change of employment and employment conditions -- 6 Restructuring public workforce and the impact of austerity measures: towards a new employment structure? -- 7 Trend towards more flexible employment features and its impact on central public administration -- 8 EU law: limits to flexibility and flexible employment contracts -- 9 Future relationship between civil servants and other public employees -- 9.1 Distinction between civil servants and other public employees - 9.2 Sectors o f civil service employment - 9.3 Reserve of certain functions to civil servants: a new blurring of boundaries -- 10 Conclusions.

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume compares and analyses the national civil services and the most important reform trends in the 27 Member States of the European Union. The authors first examine the reform processes concerning civil servants' legal status, organisational changes, recruitment policies, remuneration, decentralisation of human resource responsibilities, job security and ethics. They consider in what ways similarities and differences can be detected amongst the 27 Member States and whether and to what extent the national civil services move away from traditional bureaucratic structures. Finally, the authors discuss the main outcomes of the reform processes and the future of the classical civil service. This publication contrasts with the many popular and speculative statements that too often capture the headlines on the future of the civil service and the different human resource management reforms. Instead, it is a measured conclusion about emerging trends and developments in this important policy area. The authors argue that the reform of the public sector will not, as many have predicted, be characterised by clear changes and progress in the area. Instead, the outcomes of the reform reveal a more complex picture of piecemeal and paradoxical patterns of change. 296 pp. Englisch.…
