Public Management

Thinking and Acting in Three Dimensions

Managing in the public sector requires an understanding of the interaction between three distinct dimensions—administrative structures, organizational cultures, and the skills of individual managers. Public managers must produce results that citizens and their representatives expect from their government while fulfilling their constitutional responsibilities. In Public Management: Thinking and Acting in Three Dimensions, authors Carolyn J. Hill and Laurence E. Lynn, Jr. argue that one-size-fits-all approaches are inadequate for dealing with the distinctive challenges that public managers face. Drawing on both theory and detailed case studies of actual practice, the authors show how public management that is based on applying a three-dimensional analytic framework—structure, culture, and craft—to specific management problems is the most effective way to improve the performance of America’s unique scheme of governance in accordance with the rule of law. The book educates readers to be informed citizens and prepares students to participate as professionals in the world of public management.

Customary Law Today

This book addresses current practices in customary law. It includes contributions by scholars from various legal systems (the USA, France, Israel, Canada etc.), who examine the current impacts of customary law on various aspects of private law, constitutional law, business law, international law and criminal law. In addition, the book expands the traditional concept of the rule of law, and argues that lawyers should not narrowly focus on statutory law, but should instead pay more attention to the impact of practices on “real legal life.” It states that the observation of practices calls for a stronger focus on usage, customs and traditions in our legal systems – the idea being not to replace statutory law, but to complement it with customary observations.

Do the Type of Sukuk and Choice of Shari'a Scholar Matter?

Sukuk, the shari’a-compliant alternative mode of financing to conventional bonds, have expanded considerably over the last decade. We analyze the stock market reaction to two key features of this financial instrument: sukuk type and characteristics of the shari’a scholar certifying the issue. We use the event study methodology to measure abnormal returns for a sample of 131 sukuk from eight countries over the period 2006-2013 and find that Ijara sukuk structures exert a positive influence on the stock price of the issuing firm. We observe a similar positive impact from shari’a scholar reputation and proximity to issuer. Overall our results support the hypotheses that the type of sukuk and the choice of scholars hired to certify these securities matter for the market valuation of the issuing company.

Leadership and Management: Case Studies in Training in Higher Education in Africa

There has been a resurgence of interest in training programmes for higher education leaders and management (HELM) at African universities in recent times. Although there have been a few cases of evaluation studies of such programmes in Africa, a more systematic review of the lessons learnt through these programmes has not been done. This book aims to document and reflect on the learnings from intervention programmes at three African higher education councils. It is clear that university leaders face many leadership and management challenges. This is the starting point of the book.

The Fund's core mandate is to provide funding to supplement government efforts in the provision of educational infrastructure and facilities within the public sector, from the pre-tertiary to the tertiary level.

American Constitutional Law

This treatise on constitutional law is organized around issues, or constitutional functions, rather than being a sequential discussion of the text to the Constitution. Professor Tribe provides analysis of constitutional law doctrine and policy. The text is heavily footnoted with references to treatises, law review articles, the U.S. Code, and Supreme Court cases.

Lembaga-Lembaga Negara (Di Dalam Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945)

Agaknya tidak berlebihan bahwa semakin lama dijalankan dan diajarkan negara hukum, semakin kita sadari akan kekurangannya, yakni: negara hukum yang bagaimanakah? Corak negara hukum apa yang hendak dikembangkan? Konsep negara hukum yang manakah yang layak dan sebaiknya dianut dan dijalankan oleh suatu negara? Apakah ada konsep atau model negara hukum dan syarat-syarat apa sajakah yang seharusnya dimiliki oleh suatu negara hukum? Bukankah semua negara menamakan dirinya adalah negara hukum, oleh sebab semua negara dijalankan berdasarkan ketentuan dan pembatasan- pembatasan yang telah dibuat oleh rakyat negara yang bersangkutan? Adakah suatu model dan bentuk atau corak negara hukum yang merupakan “standard” negara hukum, ataukah negara hukum itu tergantung kepada sistem politik-hukum dan tata budaya dan kebiasaan yang berlaku dan yang dipandang patut oleh negara bersangkutan?1 Setidaknya hal ini haruslah sudah terjawab di tengah-tengah perkembangan hukum tata negara saat ini.
