Paper Summary

The article discusses 'new public management' in the UK health sector in the late 1990s. It looks at how this approach, which involves using private sector practices and market mechanisms to improve efficiency in the public sector, has evolved and expanded over time. Despite changes in government, new public management continues to be a debated and implemented strategy in the UK.
