Explore the evolution of Indian public administration with “RECASTING PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION: Reform, Rhetoric and Neoliberalism” by Kuldeep Mathur. This insightful volume delves into administrative reforms since India’s independence, analyzing the shift from colonial structures to a system geared for planned economic development. Discover how the introduction of neoliberal policies reshaped the discourse, demanding private sector management practices and a new vocabulary in public administration. Mathur critically examines the layering of new institutions onto traditional ones and the adoption of untested managerial ideas on Indian soil. The book argues that the most significant transformation is the institutionalization of a hybrid architecture for public service delivery, offering a unique critique of neoliberal reforms from a mainstream perspective. Ideal for students, policymakers, and anyone interested in governance and development in India.
