公共管理学2011期末复习题及答案

第一章 一、公共管理的特征 P4 公共管理是以政府为核心的公共组织和其他会组织及公民为推进社会整体协调发展、增进社会的公共利益,运用公共权力,通过观念和手段的不断创新,对日益复杂的公共事务及组织自身进行管理和优化的活动。其特征可以归结为以下几个方面。 1、公共性 ①利益取向的公共性。在公共管理过程中,公共组织以其所提供的公共物品和公共服务去推进、实现和维护公共利益的最大化,将公共利益放在突出位置。强化公共利益的重要性是公共管理与传统公共行政的本质区别所在。 ②公共参与性。随着政治民主的发展,公民社会开始逐渐成长起来,社会组织及公民的权利意识、民主意识和法制意识不断增强,为了更好的的维护自身的合法权益,他们越来越多地要求参与到公共管理之中。使得政府在公共管理过程中不再是唯一的主体,而是还包括政府之外的其他公共组织、私人组织以及公民。 2、效能性 与传统公共行政关注管理过程和管理程序相比,公共管更多地将视线放在了结果的取得上,强调投

入要素和实际产出之间的对比关系。因而,公共管理提倡效能建设,在管理目标上追求包括经济、效率和效果在内的多元价值的有机统一。 3、回应性 公共管理过程可以说也是一个与社会互动的过程,这是公共部门以人为本、重视公众利益的具体体现。对政府组织而言,它不再是传统公共行政中的封闭体系,而是具有高度开放特征的开放体系。政府既要提供有效的制度平台和渠道,让公众能及时地向政府反映问题,同时政府也要对公众的需要作出反馈。 4、管理手段的多样性和创新性 公共管理非常注重管理技术和方法的研究和创新,这是由管理对象的复杂性决定的。一方面,由于公共管理过程中许多新的问题和矛盾的出现需要采取相应的措施加以解决;另一方面,公共组织要实现自身的优化管理,也要不断开发新的技术和手段。 5、法治性 法治在公共管理中体现为严格遵守规则的精神。以政府为核心的公共组织之间要实行对社会事务的合作共识,只能建立在法治的基础之上。如果缺少

《公共管理学》思考题

《公共管理学》思考题: 一、何谓公共管理公共管理与行政管理有什么不同 徐双敏:所谓公共管理,是社会公共组织通过观念和手段的不断创新,为增进公共利益及社会协调发展,对日益多样复杂的公共事务及公共组织自身进行调节和控制的活动。 黄健荣:公共管理是以政府为核心的公共组织和其他社会组织以有效促进公共利益最大化为宗旨,运用政治的、法律的、经济的和管理的理论与方式,民主运用公共权力,并以科学的方法制定和执行公共政策、管理社会公共事务、提供公共物品和公共服务的活动。 行政管理公共管理 管理理念效率绩效 管理主体政府组织公共组织 与外部环境关系不受外部政治干 扰 政府、企业、公民 社会互动 管理方法行政、法律方式更关注私人部门 管理方法 管理目的重执行,重程序重结果,重责任 B途径,Business Approach,企业管理的途径,认为公共管理是可以运用工商政策和企业战略的管理,公共管理的特点就是非政治化和和企业化。 P途径,Public Policy Approach,公共政策的途径,认为公共管理应该是与公共政政策的制定密切关的管理。 B途径下的公共管理与P途径下的公共管理相比,有以下不同之处:。 1、前者之课程设计依循商业学院的传统,后者则依循公共政策学院的传统; 2、前者并不强调公共与私人组织的差异性,后者则特别重视公共组织的特殊性; 3、前者企图与公共行政合流,,后者则想要摆脱公共行政,从而形成一个独立的管理领域 4、前者之课程设计依循商业学院的传传统,后者则依循公共政策学院的传统;前者重视视策略与组织间的管理,强调组织设计、人事与预算等问题;后者则强调政策与政治问题; 5、前者主张采用量化析,后者则采用个案研究法。 二者的的共同点:组织外部定向(即关心公共部门与外部环境的关系,强调政治因素在管理中的作用;重视规范研究并关心改善管理绩效,主张从经验中学习。 N途径的的产生:公共管理的P途径与B途径的逐渐融合,形成公共管理的新途径(the new approach,N途径) 三、简述公共行政范式存在的问题。 1、政治的逆向控制。 2、科层制组织的低效率。 (1)科层制行政组织有不断自我膨胀的内驱力 (2)科层制组织中的行政公务员乃至行政部门 (3)出现“彼德现象”。 3、科层制组织对自由的双向制约。 (1)标准化公共产品使公民失去选择的自由; (2)限制了组织成员的自由。 四、简述“政治与行政二分”理论的基本内涵。 ①政府由“政治”与“行政”两种过程构成,“行政”是其中一种单独的过程; ②行政研究应当建立在管理的基础之上而不是法律的基础上; ③关于“行政”的科学研究可以遵循类似于物理学的普遍原则,行政研究可以由艺术转变为一门科学; ④行政将成为现代政府的中心问题,运用行政科学可以增进政府管理的效率。 五、简述韦伯官僚制的特点,并结合实际论述该理论对于中国行政体制改革的积极意义。 理想的行政组织体系的特点(韦伯) ①明确分工。将组织内部的工作进行分解,按照职业专业化的标准对人员分工。同时明文规定每个人员拥有的权力和责任。 ②等级系统。将各种公职和职位按等级进行法定安排,形成一个体现等级体系的自上而下的指挥链。位于指挥链上的每个下级都要服从和接受上级的监督和控制,每个上级都对自身和下级的决定及行为负责。 ③人员任用。从通过正式教育培训和考试获得一定技术资格的人群中选拔员工,并根据相应的职务要求来任用。 ④管理人员专职化。设计管理人员固定薪酬制度和职务晋升制度,以此促进管理工作向职业化发展。 ⑤遵守规则与纪律。管理人员必须按照组织中的规则、纪律和办事程序行事。 ⑥员工之间的关系。用理性主导员工之间的关系,应避免私人情感的干扰和影响。这不仅是处理组织内部关系的准则,也是处理组织与外界关系的准则。 六、简述公共选择理论的基本内容。 (1)个人主义的方法论:认为人类的一切行为,不论是经济行为还是政治行为,其结果都应从人类个体的角度去寻找原因。(只有个人才有目标和利益;社会系统及其变迁产生于个人的行为;所有大规模的社会学现象最终都应该只考虑个人) (2)人的经济学:认为人的本性是一样的,无论处于什么位置,追求私利和个人效用的最大化都是最基本的动机。 (3)交易政治学:认为政治市场与经济市场一样,其行为的基础仍然是交换行为,是利益的互换。 七、简述交易成本理论的基本内容。(不考) 八、公共组织有哪些区别于私营组织的特征 公共性。 非营利性。

公共管理学黎民课后答案

第一章绪论 公共管理与私部门管理有何区别? 公共管理与私部门管理在性质上的差别集中表现在如下方面:(一)公共利益目标与 私人利益目标。公共管理必须以公共利益为目标,私部门管理的目标可以定位于包括管理者在内的私人利益,公共管理组织和公共管理者不应以自身利益最大化作为自己活动的目标,而应以实现与社会的存在和发展休戚相关、私人活动又难以增进的公共利益作为自己义不容辞的责任。(二)垄断强制性与自由竞争性。处理公共利益与私人利益之关系的一 个基本原则是确保公共利益的优先性,而优先性是通过公共权力或政治权威来体现的。 (三)制衡性与自主性。公共管理受较多制衡有其必然性:由于维护和增进公共利益的需要,公共管理组织获得了合法的垄断性,拥有合法的强制力,同时公共管理过程产生的影响也是全社会的。(四)多元理性与经济理性。公共管理部门作为增进公共利益的立法者 与执法者,处在基本社会资源分配的中心,公共决策通常是在多元的、甚至冲突的利益与价值之间进行平衡和做出抉择。(五)政府机制与市场机制。公共管理主要通过政府机制 来实现,私部门管理则主要通过市场机制来完成。政府与市场是现代社会的两个最重要的资源配置和控制体系。 2.传统行政学在公共管理上存在哪些局限? 用行政学的理论与方法处理当代公共领域的管理事宜时,主要存在着以下局限:(一)理论框架局限。行政学的理论基础主要是由政治学和管理学两者构成的,行政学以政府管理作为研究内容,无法独立于政治学,而采取管理学的一般的工具取向又会抹杀公共领域特有的政治文化价值。(二)管理主体局限。政府或国家行政机构无疑是最重要的公共管理 主体,各种非政府公共组织也是公共管理的重要组织形式。(三)管理理念与手段局限。 现代公共管理是在市场经济条件下的管理,从根本上突破行政学在管理理念和手段上的局限,成为公共领域管理发展的内在要求。(四)管理对象与目标局限。行政管理学讲管理 对象确定为两类:一类是政府本身,包括人、体制和过程;另一类是属于政府管辖范围的 公共事务。对公共管理而言,只有兼顾内外环境的关系,特别是重视外部环境,以结果或绩效为管理目标,才能实现有效的管理。 3.如何理解公共管理学产生的社会背景? 具体来讲,公共管理学产生的社会背景包括以下几个方面:一、西方国家摆脱困境的需要,如政府角色膨胀和规模扩大引起民众的不满,经济衰退和财政压力的加剧,社会问题与政府不可治理性的增加。二、科技革命和全球化浪潮。科学技术革命是公共管理学产生和发展的重要推动力量。现代科技革命使社会成员参与公共领域活动的性质和形式发生了重大变化,现代通信技术和信息技术革命对传统政府管理提出变革的要求,科技革命将导致社会治理新形态的出现。全球化是公共管理学产生和发展的另一推动力。三、政府管理和民主制度方面的矛盾。以韦伯官僚制思想为肌醇的行政体制难以适应时代的要求,西方国家民主的现状难以满足民众的“民主需求”。 食二节、砂4.公共管理学及其特点是什么? 公共管理学是一门运用包括管理学、经济学、政治学在内的多学科的理论和方法,研究公共管理部门和公共管理过程及其规律性的科学:是关于促进以政府为核心的公共组织更有效地提供公共物品和公共服务,以增进和公平分配社会公共利益的知识体系。 从总体上看,公共管理作为一门学科具有如下重要的特点:(1)公共管理是一个整合性的 概念。(2)公共管理是在并不改变公共部门公共性的前提下,将私部门的管理手段运用于公共部门。(3)公共管理重视与外部环境的关系,强调以最高管理者的战略设计、政策设

庄序莹公共管理学教材课后习题及答案

第一章导论 一、名词解释 政府部门:以财政拨款作为经费来源,免费或部分免费地向社会提供公共品和服务的单位 的总称。 公共管理:以政府为核心的公共部门为了社会公共利益,提升公共部门绩效和公共品质量以应对不断高涨的公众需求和期望,而加强治理结构的一系列决策制定、执行、监督、控制、评价、协调和沟通等活动。 (它注重结果及管理者的个人责任。) 公共管理学:公共管理学是综合地运用经济学、管理学、政治学、行政管理学、伦理学、法学等学科知识来研究公共部门管理目标、过程、方式及其规律性的学科。 (它试图为公共管理学提供更有效的方法。) 公共管理学是研究公共部门(核心是政府部门)如何更有效地提供公共品和公共服务以满足社会公共需求、增进公共利益的学问。 二、复习思考题 1、试比较公共行政与公共管理之间的联系和区别。 (1)主体不同。公共管理的主体的公共部 门,包括政府部门、公共企业部 门和非政府组织;公共行政的主体是行政部门,特别是政府的行政机关。 (2)追求目标不同。公共行政更关注组织 内部的执行过程,而公共管理则 将视野大大拓展到组织的外部,以追求最终的好的结果为己任,并时时强调将管理责任落实到个人。 (3)公共管理的逐渐兴起并对公共行政有取而代之之势。政府部门越来越不能满足社会对它的期望和定位,公共管理是时代发展的必然趋势。 2、公共管理学有哪些学科特征? (1)公共管理学是一门科技整合的学科。 它需要综合地吸收当代各门社会 科学的合理内核,来搭建公共管理学的基本概念、学科范式和分析框架。 (2)公共管理学的研究方法和途径也呈现 多样化特点。 (3)公共管理的研究对象与实践发展是相 吻合的。 (4)公共管理学从“内部取向”转向“外 部取向”。它重视战略管理、绩效 管理、责任机制和外部整合,有助于提升公共管理学的理论竞争性。 (5)公共管理是一门实践性很强的开放性 学科。 (6)公共管理学提倡案例分析法。 (7)公共管理学(作为指导政府部门活动 的理论规范前所未有地)强调管 理者个人责任和对结果负责。 3、如何理解经济学理论对公共管理的影响? (1)以政府为核心的公共管理部门,从其 管理对象来看,有相当多的事务 属于经济事务(如对财政收入和支出的管理、建立社会保障体系、对食品和药品安全的管理、对中央银行基准利率的制定和管理等)。一方面,对管理这些事务的政府部门官员来说,具备基础的经济学理论和精深的专业经济知识非常重要;另一方面,我国政府部门还要承担管理国有企业的任务。(管理竞争性领域的公公企业是我国公共管理中的一个重要组成部分,也是我国公共管理的特色之一。) (2)政府管理的即使是非经济事务,仍需要采用经济学的基本分析法。(经济学研究的是资源稀缺条件下的资源配置和收入分配问题,当政府部门的官员都时刻提醒自己资源是有限的、并用经济学的基本分析方法——收益-成本分析法来权衡他所要处理的众多事情时,管理的成效将要提高的多。) (3)经济学可以首先明确事务性质而后选择恰当的制度工具,从而节省管理的成本并达到事半功倍的效果。(协调矛盾、均衡利益的基础上处理好公共事务并花费尽可能少的成本。)(4)公共管理中一个非常明显的变化就是管理过程和方式呈现市场化取向,如何把握合适的度仍需要运用经济学知识来加以回答。 4、你是怎样理解工商管理理论和政治学理论对公共管理的基础性影响的。 (1)工商管理学和公共管理学是不可割裂的两个学科,工商管理理论和实 践必然会对公共管理学产生影响。当公共管理学在经济学途径上诞生并强调“企业型政府”理念时,工商管理学的一些基本理论当然构成公共管

第六章制定决策:管理者工作的本质 一、决策制定过程 每个人不论是在组织内或组织的哪个领域中,都在制定决策,也就是说他们要在两个或更多的方案中做出选择。 决策制定过程(decision-making process)的步骤,包括8个步骤:识别决策问题、确定决策标准、以及为每个决策标准分配权重,然后进入开发、分析和选择备择方案,这些方案要能够解决你的问题。接下来是实施备择方案,以及最终评估决策的结果。 步骤1:识别决策问题 决策制定过程开始于一个存在的问题,也就是开始于现状与希望状态之间的差异。 问题的识别不那么简单,在事情被确认为问题之前,管理者需要意识到问题,感到有采取行动的压力,以及拥有采取行动的资源。 步骤2、确认决策标准 对于解决问题来说,确认决策标准非常重要,管理者必须决定什么与制定决策有关。 无论决策标准是否被清晰的陈述,每一个决策者都会有某些标准来指导他的决策。 步骤3、为决策标准分配权重 决策标准并非都是同等重要,因而决策制定者必须为每一项标准分配权重,以便正确的规定它们的优先次序。 采用你个人的偏好来排列指标的优先次序,这些指标是你在决策过程第2步确认的。 步骤4、开发备择方案 决策制定者列出可供选择的决策方案,这些方案要能够解决决策所面对的问题,无需对这一步所列出的方案进行评估,只需要列出它们既可。 步骤5、分析备择方案 一旦确认了备择方案,决策制度者必须认真的分析每一种方案,对每一种方案的评价是将其与决策标准进行比较,通过比较,每一种备择方案的优点和缺点就变得明显了。 步骤6、选择备择方案 从所有备择方案中选择最佳方案是很重要的。 步骤7、实施备择方案 实施(implementation)包含了将决策传送给有关人员和部门,并要求他们对实施结果作出承诺。 步骤8、评估决策结果 评估决策结果,看看问题是否得到解决。 二、决策的普遍性 制定决策是管理者所有四个职能的组成部分,这也是管理者在计划、组织、领导和控制时通常被称为决策制定者的原因。事实上,决策制定是管理的同一语。管理职能中的决策: 计划: 组织的长期目标是什么?什么战略能够最佳的实现这些目标?组织的短期目标是什么?
