Motivation, Agency, and Public Policy

Meer over het boek

Exploring the dynamics of altruism in public services, the book questions whether professionals can be trusted to provide quality health and education. It challenges the roles of patients, parents, and pupils as either grateful recipients or active consumers. Evaluating recent government policies in various sectors, it proposes innovative reforms such as universal capital, discriminating vouchers, and matching grants for pensions and long-term care, alongside hypothecated taxes to enhance service delivery.
