The more recent experiments with New Public Management, in various countries, have revealed that there were major differences among what a number of writers referred to as 'differential application' of systems and practices. It was suggested that these differences were a result of environmental considerations. But the major preoccupation of the earlier literature on New Public Management was with debates on whether the systems and practices of New Public Management had achieved success in the developed countries. Unfortunately, developing countries such as Mexico and countries in the Caribbean are largely neglected in the current literature. Policy Transfer, New Public Management and Globalization fills this gap. Focusing on policy transfer, new public management, and globalization, the contributors examine the problems and difficulties in introducing and implementing policies in small, plural, politically unstable societies.
