Critical examinations of efforts to make governments more efficient and responsive Political upheavals and civil wars in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) have obscured efforts by many countries in the region to reform their public sectors. Unwieldy, unresponsive—and often corrupt—governments across the region have faced new pressure, not least from their publics, to improve the quality of public services and open up their decisionmaking processes. Some of these reform efforts were under way and at least partly successful before the outbreak of the Arab Spring in 2010. Reform efforts have continued in some countries despite the many upheavals since then. This book offers a comprehensive assessment of a wide range of reform efforts in nine countries. In six cases the reforms targeted core systems of government: Jordan's restructuring of cabinet operations, the Palestinian Authority's revision of public financial management, Morocco's voluntary retirement program, human resource management reforms in Lebanon, an e-governance initiative in Dubai, and attempts to improve transparency in Tunisia. Five other reform efforts tackled line departments of government, among them Egypt's attempt to improve tax collection and Saudi Arabia's work to improve service delivery and bill collection. Some of these reform efforts were more successful than others. This book examines both the good and the bad, looking not only at what each reform accomplished but at how it was implemented. The result is a series of useful lessons on how public sector reforms can be adopted in MENA.

The last decades a transformation of the public sector under the label of New Public Management was seen. NPM was especially supported for its novel ideas on including private sector practices, such as performance management, in the delivery of public sector services and for its idea to substitute the public sector by the private sector. With the benefit of hindsight one can conclude now that the success rates of such reforms varied. Whether the role of government and its strength is really determinative in shaping optimal models for service delivery is one of the main questions in the current debate and is also one of the reasons for inviting a number of scholars from countries in transition, that is, outside the usual realm of investigation, to tell about and analyze the developments in this regard in their home-countries. First of all, these are scholars from the so-called BRICS-countries, that strange group of nation-states, from several parts of the world of which the first letters of their names constitute the word BRICS, namely Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. Secondly, scholars from Central and Eastern Europe were invited to write about the experiences in their countries. The central question these scholars focus on is how two New Public Management Tools evolved in their countries, that is, performance management and involving the private sector in previously public service delivery and what problems these countries encountered.
