Abstract

Largely because of the European Union's two-phase expansion in 2004 and 2007, labor migration across the continent has changed significantly in recent years. Notably, the EU's policy of open borders has enabled a growing stream of workers to leave new member states in search of higher wages. As a result, the nature, scale, and direction of migration flows have changed dramatically. 'Making Migration Work' explores how policy can-and should-address these changes. In the process, this timely volume considers the future trajectory of a phenomenon that has become an increasingly sensitive political issue in many European nations.

Abstract

Public administration is frequently engaged in debate. His role, role and position are emphatically examined in both public opinion formation and in the political discussion. This should come as no surprise: public administration is by definition a public matter. How is the public character expressed in that board itself and who monitors this? These are questions that are regularly asked, but rarely answered. Europeanization, legalization, decentralization, deregulation, privatization, independence and promotion of market forces have given the board a different face in recent decades. The question is how this relates to its 'public' character. The face of public affairs: Facing public administration contains contributions from various authors, including Luuk van Middelaar, Maarten Hajer, Philip van Praag and Luuk Boelens. They discuss current issues of administrative fragmentation, the relationship with Europe, authority, the media and accountability. Together, this offers a varied consideration of the problems and challenges of contemporary governance and a perspective on its public character.
