The Public Sector in the Caribbean by Vinaya Swaroop,Banco Mundial Pdf

May 1996 The public sector's performance in the Caribbean varies, in reducing poverty and in creating an enabling environment for growth. Barbados and the Bahamas have been the high performers, Guyana and the Dominican Republic have been sluggish, and the other Caribbean countries fall in between. In the Caribbean region, the public sector is now the predominant provider of tertiary education and health services (university education and hospital-based curative care), which mainly benefit the nonpoor. Attempts must be made to recover costs from high-income users and use that revenue to improve the quality and quantity (as appropriate) of basic services. Lessons from experience suggest that most Caribbean countries need to encourage the private sector to participate more in providing infrastructure and need to provide a better regulatory framework. The good news: this is already taking place in many countries.

Modernizing the State by Paul Sutton Pdf

Public Sector Reform (PSR) and New Public Management (NPM) have been promoted by Commonwealth Caribbean governments and supported by regional and international agencies as a necessary step to ensure effective, efficient and economical administration; improve governance; and manage globalization. Modernizing the State covers both the theory and practice of PSR and NPM in the region. It examines examples of policy transfer for the first time in an extended manner, and evaluates their impact on the reform process. Five countries in the region – Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, Saint Lucia, and Trinidad and Tobago – are studied in depth to assess the successes as well as the failures of reform. Particular attention is paid to the importance of the NPM paradigm in influencing and shaping the various reform initiatives. This book is one of the few comparative attempts to study the evolution and implementation of PSR and the only one to focus exclusively on the Caribbean in the important period of the 1990s onward. Free of jargon, it will appeal to graduate and undergraduate students in addition to academics and consultancy firms, bilateral development agencies and intergovernmental agencies.
