Finnish Public Administration : Nordic Public Space and Agency, Hardback Book

Finnish Public Administration : Nordic Public Space and Agency Hardback

Edited by Elias Pekkola, Jan-Erik Johanson, Mikko Mykkanen

Part of the Governance and Public Management series

Hardback

Description

This book provides a comprehensive analysis of public administration in Finland.

Many of the basic structures of Finnish public administration have remained intact during the country’s relatively short independence of 100 years, but Finland has been able to tackle major  turbulence ranging from wars and financial crises to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Finland has also had to adjust to greater European integration, a new constitution, an ageing population, increased globalization of markets, and climate change.

Chapters in this volume examine a wide range of themes pertinent to Finnish public administration, including government, regionalisation, health care policy, performance management, budgeting, and higher education policy.

Placing these themes within the wider context of Nordic administrative developments, the book showcases public administration in Finland as pragmatism in action.

It will appeal to students and scholars of public administration, public management, public policyand Nordic studies.
