  摘要：In recent years, there has been growing concern in the UK that local services aimed at risky or vulnerable people are ineffective, because of agencies' persistent failure to share information about their clients. Despite considerable national policy effort to encourage better information-sharing, previous research indicates that there are many cases where information is still not shared when it should be, or where it is shared when it should not be, with potentially devastating results. This a...

  摘要：Differences in national traditions of public intervention, institutional arrangements and public service markets make local public services an area of great diversity.

We find levels of privatization are higher in Spain than in the US. We review organizational reform in the two contexts and compare service delivery data using national surveys from each c...

The analysis assesses the extent to which it is operationally feasible, and with what commercial consequences, in UK pig and beef supply chains and markets. The analysis demonstrates that the lean and partnering approach is not always operationally feasible. Furthermore, when it is operationally feasibl...
