Book Synopsis The Other Invisible Hand by : Julian Le Grand
Download or read book The Other Invisible Hand written by Julian Le Grand and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-10 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can we ensure high-quality public services such as health care and education? Governments spend huge amounts of public money on public services such as health, education, and social care, and yet the services that are actually delivered are often low quality, inefficiently run, unresponsive to their users, and inequitable in their distribution. In this book, Julian Le Grand argues that the best solution is to offer choice to users and to encourage competition among providers. Le Grand has just completed a period as policy advisor working within the British government at the highest levels, and from this he has gained evidence to support his earlier theoretical work and has experienced the political reality of putting public policy theory into practice. He examines four ways of delivering public services: trust; targets and performance management; "voice"; and choice and competition. He argues that, although all of these have their merits, in most situations policies that rely on extending choice and competition among providers have the most potential for delivering high-quality, efficient, responsive, and equitable services. But it is important that the relevant policies be appropriately designed, and this book provides a detailed discussion of the principal features that these policies should have in the context of health care and education. It concludes with a discussion of the politics of choice.

Book Synopsis Market-Based Governance by : John D. Donahue
Download or read book Market-Based Governance written by John D. Donahue and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2004-05-26 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Brookings Institution Press and Visions of Governance for the 21st Century publication The latest in a series exploring twenty-first-century governance, this new volume examines the use of market means to pursue public goals. Market-based governance includes both the delegation of traditionally governmental functions to private players, and the importation into government of market-style management approaches and mechanisms of accountability. The contributors (all from Harvard University) assess market-based governance from four perspectives: The demand side deals with new, revised, or newly important forms of interaction between government and the market where the public sector is the customer. Chapters in this section include Steve Kelman on federal procurement reform, Karen Eggleston and Richard Zeckhauser on contracting for health care, and Peter Frumkin. The supply side section deals with unsettled questions about government's role as a provider (rather than a purchaser) within the market system. Contributors include Georges de Menil, Frederick Schauer and Virginia Wise. A third section explores experiments with market-based arrangements for orchestrating accountability outside government by altering the incentives that operate inside market institutions. Chapters include Robert Stavins on market-based environmental policy, Archon Fung on social markets, and Cary Coglianese and David Lazer. The final section examines both the upside and the downside of the market-based approach to improving governance. Contributors include Elaine Kamarck, John D. Donahue, Mark Moore, and Robert Behn. An introduction by John D. Donahue frames market-based governance as an effort to engineer into public work some of the intensive accountability that characterizes markets without surrendering the extensive accountability of conventional government. A preface by Joseph S. Nye Jr. sets the book in the context of a larger inquiry into the future of governance.
Book Synopsis Market Mechanisms and the Efficient Use and Management of Scarce Spectrum Resources by : Thomas Randolph Beard
Download or read book Market Mechanisms and the Efficient Use and Management of Scarce Spectrum Resources written by Thomas Randolph Beard and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, the Federal Government has assignments for about half of what is considered to be “beachfront” spectrum. However, most agree that Government agencies, and the Government as a whole, use and manage spectrum resources inefficiently. As such, much attention is now focused on improving the Federal Government's efficiency in the use and management of its spectrum resources with the aim of freeing up spectrum which can be repurposed for the spectrum-constrained commercial sector. In this Paper, we first tackle Government spectrum use and demonstrate that the “ghost market” approaches commonly proposed to enhance public sector efficiency in spectrum such as a General Services Administration-type model to the recent spectrum sharing proposal by the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology use may not, in the long-term, be effective. Next, we turn to Government spectrum management and present a general equilibrium model addressing spectrum assignment between public and private users using either auctions or leasing. We find that Government management of spectrum resources is not desirable beyond some minimum level. In fact, any proposal that contemplates the leasing of Government-managed spectrum to the private sector may be presumed to include “too little” auctioning of Government spectrum to the private sector in the form of exclusive licenses. We conclude that if the goal of spectrum use and management is economic efficiency, then policymakers should expand the private sector's management of the nation's scarce spectrum resources.
