The 1st textbook to examine how new trends such as "radical innovation", "co-creation" and "potentialization" challenge fundamental values in the public sector. Bridging traditional public management approaches that tend to exclude social and societal problems, with broader social theories apt to capture new dilemmas and challenges, the authors show how the effects of new forms of managerialism penetrate the state, local governments, welfare institutions as well as professional work and citizens' rights.
