Abstract

Many governments have embraced the NPM as the framework or paradigm through which governments are modernized and the public sector re-engineered. Indeed, the NPM offers important lessons and analyses for public management throughout the world and African countries are no exception to the process of implementation of efforts aimed at achieving the outcomes embodied in the said NPM. This article explores the relationship between the basic context of the NPM, as applied in practice to public sector reform in Africa, and discusses the impact stemming therefrom.
