Summary

In the late 1980s, New Zealand began the arduous task of reforming the public sector, transforming government departments into privately held, profitable companies. This book examines the commercialization of state trading departments, explores the economic principles behind the changes and the organizational responses, and discusses the outcomes in performance of these fourteen departments.
