Abstract

Bu çalışma, kamu yönetimi alanında yeni bir paradigma iddiasıyla ortaya çıkan ve rekabet yerine birlikte üretim gibi iş birliğine dayalı değerleri ön plana çıkaran Yeni Kamu Yönetişimi (YKY) modelini konu edinmektedir. 21. yüzyılın karmaşık ve habis sorunları karşısında kamu yönetimlerinin daha duyarlı hâle getirilmeleri amacına odaklanılan YKY modeli, öne sürdüğü teorik ilke ve iddialar açısından önceki paradigmalardan belirgin bir şekilde ayrılmaktadır. Ancak paradigma değişimi iddiasının teorinin yanı sıra uygulamaya ilişkin boyutları da bulunmaktadır. Buradan hareketle, çalışmada YKY uygulamaları Amerika Birleşik Devletleri (ABD)’ndeki veriler üzerinden araştırılmakta, uygulamalara ilişkin veriler ile teorik fikir ve beklentiler arasındaki ilişki değerlendirilmekte ve bunun için de sistematik literatür incelemesi yönteminden yararlanılmaktadır. Ulaşılan bulgular, paradigma iddiasının uygulama boyutunun teorik boyut kadar güçlü olmadığını ve özellikle habis sorunlarla mücadele bağlamındaki bazı beklentilerin uygulamalarda yeterince yer bulmadığını ortaya koymaktadır.

EVALUATION OF THE COMPLIANCE BETWEEN THE NEW PUBLIC GOVERNANCE THEORY AND PRACTICES: THE CASE OF THE USA

Abstract

This study focuses on the New Public Governance model (NPG), which emerged with the claim of a new paradigm in the field of public administration and emphasizes cooperative values such as co-production rather than competition. Focusing on the aim of making public administrations more sensitive in the face of the complex and wicked problems of the 21st century, the NPG model differs markedly from the previous paradigms in terms of its theoretical principles and arguments. However, besides the theoretical dimension of the paradigm shift claim, it also has a practical dimension. In this study, the NPG practices are evaluated by using the case of US public administration, the relationship between the data related to the practices and the theoretical argument and expectations are evaluated and systematic literature review method is used for this. The findings show that the practical dimension of the paradigm shift claim is not as strong as the theoretical dimension and that some expectations, especially in the context of combating wicked problems are not sufficiently included in the practices.
