This publication contributes to a discussion about the future of public employment and HR policies in the context of a changing statehood and new financial pressures. It presents comparative quantitative and qualitative data in the field of public employment and human resources management. These data were collected through the OECD «2015 Survey on Managing Budgeting Constraints: Implications for HRM and Employment in Central Public Administration».
This book provides an improved understanding of the broad reform trends that have affected public employment and human resources management across OECD member countries since the 2008 financial crisis. It challenges many popular assumptions, increasingly puts into question traditional characteristics of public administration systems and provides answers as to many outcomes of HR reforms.
Christoph Demmke is Interim Professor of Public Management and Public Policy at the Zeppelin University in Friedrichshafen, Germany. Beforehand, he was Head of Unit in the OECD, Paris, Professor of Comparative Public Administration at the European Institute of Public Administration in Maastricht and Guest Professor at the College of Europe in Brugge, Belgium. He holds a PhD in Administrative Sciences and was Fellow at the Harvard Law School and the German Ministry of the Interior. He has regularly advised the European Union Presidency, EU-Institutions and national Governments on public management reforms.
