Popis
Shrnutí:The authors (all affiliated with the institute PREST<-->Policy Research in Engineering, Science, and Technology<-->at the U. of Manchester, UK) critically examine the policy-initiated transformation of the Government Research Establishments (GREs) of the UK, a transformation that has been based upon the ideas of the "New Public Management" concept of public administration.
