Abstract

The change of Government Organizations has been neglected by the contemporary literature. On the one hand change is less obviously because it is not measurable in form of a policy output . The changes of Government Organizations take place in a long incremental process. On the other hand there is no consistent theory which can explain why public sector reforms on the national level are successful in one country and are refused in another European state. Besides economic factors, the starting position of a country (structure of the central government and administration) plays an important role in the reform process. Administrative culture and law traditions may determine the path dependency as well. Three approaches of the New Institutionalism should explain administrative reforms and discourses at the national level in Germany, Great Britain and Sweden. Which of these approaches is best suitable to explain the reform path in the three countries since the eighties? This thesis should contribute to the big scientific question, why divergent developments are still predominant in Western Europe.

Summary in another language

Der Wandel innerhalb der Regierungsorganisationen ist bisher in der Literatur eher vernachlässigt worden. Einerseits sind Veränderungen innerhalb der Regierungsorganisationen nicht offenkundig, da sie nicht als policy output messbar sind, sondern eher durch einen langwierigen inkrementellen Prozess zustande kommen. Andererseits fehlte bisher eine konsistente Theorie, welche den Wandel in verschiedenen europäischen Staaten erklären konnte. Es ist anzunehmen, dass neben ökonomischen Faktoren insbesondere institutionelle Ausgangsbedingungen die Reformverläufe maßgeblich beeinflussen. Neben der Struktur der Regierung und Zentralverwaltung kommt vor allem der Rechtstradition und der Verwaltungskultur eine entscheidende Rolle im Reformprozess zu. Mit Hilfe von drei neo-institutionalistischen Ansätzen soll der Wandel innerhalb der Regierungsorganisation in Deutschland, Großbritannien und Schweden untersucht werden. Welche Theorievariante ist am besten dazu geeignet, den Wandel seit den 1980er Jahren zu erklären? Diese theoriegeleitete Arbeit soll somit zum besseren Verständnis beitragen, warum in Westeuropa bisher divergente Entwicklungen vorgeherrscht haben.
