Management for public governance – The case of childcare services in Japan

Author

  • Yamamoto, Kiyoshi

Abstract

The trend of public sector management seems to have moved from new public management (NPM) to public governance (PG) or post-NPM around the world. However, the trajectory of public sector management reform might not be identical and differ from country to country owing to a layering process of public sector reform. This paper shows that by adopting a theory of hybrid strategy, Japan’s nursery services management has relied on a mixed system of traditional public administration, NPM and some of PG, in contrast to a more general international classification as a late adopter of the NPM model.
