The politics of quangocide
本文回顾了Hood关于准政府机构清除的理论，通过实证研究分析英国联合政府2010年以来的公共机构改革，发现其采取双轨策略，侧重内部控制和机构重组而非直接废除，对理解后新公共管理时代的国家重组有国际比较意义。
This article returns to Christopher Hood’s influential work, The politics of quangocide , to examine the United Kingdom’s coalition government’s approach to public bodies reform since May 2010. It combines theoretical-innovation and fresh empirical research to argue that the coalition has not simply engaged in quangocide, but has adopted a dual-track strategy based upon ‘bureau-shuffling’ and a focus on strengthening internal control rather than outright abolition. This has significant international and comparative relevance due to the manner in which these findings resonate with broader ‘post New Public Management’ narratives of state restructuring.
