Perspectives on Public Management and Governance

期刊简介：Perspectives on Public Management and Governance is dedicated to theory development and conceptual work challenging and advancing the field of public affairs. PPMG seeks to develop new theories, frameworks, and conceptual models, as well as summative and critical evaluations of existing theoretical frameworks. It welcomes contributions from a variety of epistemological frameworks that can add a new perspective to public administration and governance, e.g. positivist, normative, interpretive, grounded, and critical theory. In addition to publishing new theoretical work, the journal is interested in analytical reviews of literature. While the primary focus of the journal is not to conduct empirical studies, it anticipates treatment of concepts used in empirical work, discussion of trends, advancements, and synthesis of empirical work such as meta-analyses, and theoretical developments that offer empirical illustrations, either quantitative or qualitative.
