Access to water is one of the most pressing global issues of the twenty-first century, particularly when set against the background of a rapidly growing global population. This book provides a cutting-edge, comprehensive overview of the challenges facing water governance and regulatory choices. The recently adopted Sustainable Development Goals set forward an ambitious agenda of providing universal access to good quality water supply and sanitation services within a financially constrained environment: however, the various peculiarities of each country regarding water governance makes it difficult to identify and implement the best practices and benchmarks. Drawing together empirical studies from countries around the world, the editors and contributors combine extensive data to review the individual challenges facing each country, from the supervision of autonomous regulatory bodies to the question of centralization and the influence of local utility companies. This pioneering and practical volume will be of interest and value not only to students and scholars of water governance, but also to practitioners and regulators. Simon Porcher is Associate Professor of Management and vice-director of the Economics of Public-Private Partnership Chair at Sorbonne Business School, IAE Paris, Université Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne, France. He specialises the study of privatization of water public services in France, the UK and Chile and is expanding his research into China, Germany, the Netherlands and Portugal. Stéphane Saussier is Director of the Water research area at the Florence School of Regulation, Italy, and Professor of Economics and Management at the Sorbonne Business School, France. Specialising in issues of water governance, he regularly contributes to reports for international institutions such as the OECD and the European Parliament. .

Le management public s’est affirmé comme une discipline académique à part entière, au confluent de courants venus du droit, de l’économie, de la gestion, des sciences politiques ou de la sociologie, et au croisement des pratiques des acteurs publics. Cette Encyclopédie s’adresse à un large public de chercheurs, d’étudiants, de praticiens ou d’élus soucieux d’approfondir et d’élargir leur champ de connaissance, et de trouver une réponse rapide et précise à leurs questionnements. Plus largement, tout citoyen pourra s’y référer pour mieux comprendre comment l’action publique se décide et se conduit. Rédigées par 150 chercheurs et praticiens spécialistes, ses 220 entrées rendent compte des concepts, des théories, des écoles et des modes qui caractérisent le management public, en France comme à l’étranger. Elles les mettent en situation, décrivent leurs contextes ainsi que les modalités et les limites de leur mise en œuvre, éclairant ainsi toutes les phases de l’action publique, depuis sa conception jusqu’à l’évaluation de ses résultats. Un index détaillé permet de les mettre en résonance et expliciter leurs liens. Chaque bibliographie a été soigneusement concentrée sur les références nécessaires.
