Digital Government: Managing Public Sector Reform in the Digital Era Van Miriam Lips is an English-language printed textbook about digital transformation in the public sector. This book offers a broad view of digital government and its effects on the public sector.
It addresses digital government initiatives from a public management perspective and combines theoretical and empirical knowledge. The author analyzes how digitalization brings about fundamental changes in public administration and is not merely a technological matter. Students are provided with practical approaches to better understand the broad and complex nature of digital government.
In addition, current topics, obstacles, and strategies are discussed to effectively manage digital change within the public sector. The book is especially suitable for post-academic programs in public administration, public management, public policy, political science, international relations, and e-government. It also provides valuable insights for managers in the public sector who deal with digital technology and data-driven changes.
Topics including public ownership, government policy, and the relationship between government and business are covered in depth.
