This paper considers a public management perspective on management in the public sector. It begins by setting out two contrasting perspectives, those of business management and of public administration. It contends that the present Conservative government has strongly backed a business management approach to the public sector, with the emphasis being placed on the 'Five Es' of economy, efficiency, effectiveness, excellence and enterprise. However, it notes the relative neglect of effectiveness in favour of a rather narrow and short-term concern with economy and efficiency. The paper considers the public administration approach which emphasises the normative differences between the public and private sectors. The paper concludes with an examination of the emerging public management perspective which aims to combine the instrumental insights of business or generic management with the normative orientation of public administration.
本文从公共管理视角审视公共部门的管理。开篇阐述了两种截然不同的观点，即企业管理观点和公共行政观点。文章认为，当前的保守党政府大力支持公共部门采用企业管理方法，重点在于经济、效率、效能、卓越和创业精神这“五个E”。然而，文章指出，相对而言效能受到忽视，而更侧重于对经济和效率的狭隘且短期的关注。本文探讨了强调公共部门与私营部门规范差异的公共行政方法。文章最后考察了新兴的公共管理视角，该视角旨在将企业或一般管理的工具性见解与公共行政的规范性取向相结合。
