Presentation Editor
In the public debate, the alarmist diagnoses on the "crisis of the welfare state", and the trial against the redistributive state, have always left room for more orders to "reform the State ". This imperative has become the rallying point of political elites (both right and left), senior national and international officials, but also the most prominent intellectuals, journalists and even some unionists.
What does this "state reform"? How has it been implemented in twenty years? What consequences for public service and users? This book seeks to answer these questions in a dialogue of researchers, officials and trade unionists. The exchange of analysis and experience you can draw lines of force of this movement, while remaining attentive to the peculiarities observable.
This intellectual work and community is required to include a silent revolution-cons.
For if the neoliberal reforms of the state carried out sometimes with great fanfare (the privatization of La Poste, budget constraints of the public hospital or Education), they are most often invisible, and only meet industry protests, poorly coordinated, much less publicized. They pass by such order, such a directive, as circular, dark and doomed to remain confidential, in some cases developed by private audit firms ... most, and among the more structural going unnoticed except for those who directly confront consequences ...
After this trip in the "state reform" and its effects is the future of public services, our public services is at stake is to say that model company.
