The Global Financial Crisis

This article makes case of how South Africa has been able to use its laws and policies to achieve its objectives of regulating private higher education. This happened in the context of an ascendancy of neo-liberal policies which favoured deregulation and the rolling back of the state. Through these policies the government was able to protect the public even during the global financial crisis as it had registered credible and financially sound institutions which could weather off the financial crises which affected many private companies worldwide.

This chapter discusses the reintegration of the need for Humanities Research Council back onto the public agenda and into the policy stream of the UK government. The issue of the Research Council for the humanities came into public and governmental attention when it was fastened to the dilemmas of financing higher education, which itself was tied to the uncertainty of the UK economy. In May 1996, the Secretary of State for Education and Employment together with Secretaries of State for Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland appointed Chairman Ron Dearing to create a body that would inquire into the higher education system of the UK. In 1997, the committee produced a report, Higher Education in a Learning Society, or the Dearing Report. The report charted a course for higher education in the UK for the next twenty years. This so-called intellectual capital called for a higher quality of teaching and the need for researchers and research facilities. It offered 93 specific recommendations, among which was a recommendation advocating the immediate establishment of a new Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC). In 1998, the government recognized the need for the establishment of a research council for humanities and announced the provision of £8M in 1998–1999 for arts and humanities research, albeit after lengthy considerations.

Conceptual Foundations

This chapter discusses the conceptual foundations of introducing market forces in the public sector, drawing on pioneering work by the British academic Julian Le Grand. Creating market-like conditions in tax-financed welfare services (so-called quasi-markets) is a way to empower users and introduce competition among providers. Ideally, service provision will be efficient, responsive, equitable, and of high quality. Such ideal outcomes are, however, far from guaranteed to materialize. A crucial and defining characteristic of quasi-markets is that the end-users do not pay for the services consumed. As a result, care needs to be taken that the incentives of the buyer (the public sector) and the sellers (private firms) are properly aligned. The chapter also brings out the main challenges for quality and contract design that are discussed in depth in later chapters. A fundamental challenge for the government is to assess and monitor quality in welfare services, be they provided directly by the public sector or by the private sector.

Further Development

The article aims at monitoring the information content of the websites of municipalities based on the case of Kemerovo Region-Kuzbass, one of the subjects of the Siberian Federal District. The main assessment criteria include such indicators as availability of regulatory information on the website, basic information about the municipality, information about the reception of citizens, thematic range and frequency of filling websites with information, availability of special interactive features, and others. This kind of research is relevant due to the need for further development of democratic practices at the regional level as the official websites of municipalities, along with developing social networks, are today a significant communication channel between the authorities and the population. As before, official websites allow solving a number of communication issues: they disseminate information about current events, ensure the work of “virtual reception offices”, provide an opportunity to make a request or file a complaint about the poor performance of their duties by public utilities. In addition, high-quality and timely updating of information on the websites of municipalities does not only affect the public sentiment with regard to representatives of the municipal level, but also shapes public assessment of the work of all authorities at the regional level – the parliament, the Government of Kuzbass and the head of the region. The monitoring results made it possible to identify a number of recommendations to the regional and municipal authorities of the region, in particular, the need to create a unified modern format of the website structure for all municipalities with high-quality, attractive appearance, the need to unify the structure of official sites for the convenience of both finding information and working with it, and creating special needs versions of websites for the visually impaired (when such versions are absent)

While ‘e-Oman’ is a repository of Open Data, its significance in terms of being a potent source for Big Data deserves attention. This paper seeks to underscore how important is the integration of Big and Open Data in e-Oman – the e-government portal of Oman. Drawing evidence from four case studies based on the Higher Education Admissions Center (HEAC) ‘e-Portal’ – an online portal meant for the payment of electricity bills, traffic fines and visa applications – the paper lends support to the implementation of integration of Big and Open Data which, for a number of purposes, could be better harnessed. Thus, while the paper identifies the opportunities entailed in achieving the integration of Big and Open Data in the context of the case studies chosen for the study, there are concomitant challenges impacting this integration that need to be addressed. Specifically, e-Oman needs to be updated with Open Data and the government needs to take steps to build and maintain a robust physical, human and information infrastructure for harnessing the potential of integrating Open and Big Data in the public sector. The paper concludes with directions for future research.

Purpose The objectives of this present study are twofold. First, it aims to investigate the performance objectives of PPP implementation in Malaysia. Second, it aims to examine the differences in the perceptions of two PPP key players – the public and private sectors – pertaining to the performance objectives. Design/methodology/approach A questionnaire survey was used to elicit the perceptions of the public and private sectors concerning the performance objectives of PPP projects in Malaysia; 237 usable responses were obtained and analysed using SPSS to rank the importance of the performance objectives and to examine the differences in the perceptions between the government and private sectors. Findings The results reveal that the five most important performance objectives for PPP implementation in Malaysia based on overall respondents’ perceptions are “High-quality public service”, “Provide convenient service for society”, “Within or under budget”, “On-time or earlier” and “Satisfy the need for more public facilities”. As for differences in the perceptions of the two key players, only one objective was perceived as statistically more important by the public sector respondents than by their private sector counterparts. Originality/value The contribution of this paper is that it not only provides empirical evidence for the performance objectives for PPP implementation in Malaysia, but also offers evidence concerning the differences in the perceptions of the public and private sectors pertaining to the performance objectives.

COVID-19 provided a challenge to the continuing high quality operation of higher education. Quality frameworks, which were created long before national lockdowns or social distancing were tested in a manner that had not been foreseen on their creation. This work examines the performance of the framework in our institute to see if it was sufficiently robust to offer our students a quality education experience and to reassure the public in terms of the standard of our graduates. Engagement with the student body is described in detail from decision-making to evaluation at the end of the academic year of their experience on their programme of study.

Purpose When disasters occur, the Chinese national or local government and their relevant departments (hereinafter referred to as the government) probably need to acquire emergency supplies from suppliers. Before concluding a transaction, the public officials usually negotiate the quality and price of the emergency supplies with the suppliers. They expect to achieve the best relief effect while the suppliers want to maximize their own interests. Therefore, in order to help the government acquire inexpensive emergency supplies with high quality in a short time, the purpose of this paper is to examine the negotiation process and proposes a negotiation principle for the staff. Design/methodology/approach This paper first elaborates the characteristics and impact factors of emergency supplies requisition negotiation. Then it establishes a model describing the negotiation on price and quality of emergency supplies between the public officials and suppliers. Afterwards, it proposes an algorithm which can estimate the success rate of the negotiation. Finally, the paper employs the conclusion of the model and algorithm to analyze the emergency supplies requisition negotiation process during the China Lushan earthquake. Findings This paper proposes a “WRAD” principle of emergency supplies requisition negotiation of public officials in disasters. First, they should ensure the requisition price is not too low. Second, they would widen the difference between the high price and low price. Third, it is best for them to follow the principle of “ascending negotiation and descending choice” while selecting multiple suppliers to negotiate. Originality/value This paper establishes a model to study the emergency supplies requisition negotiation process between the public officials and suppliers based on evolutionary game theory. The model assumes that both the public officials and suppliers are not fully rational individuals, and they need time to consult with each other to find out the optimal solution. This paper proposes an innovative action principle of the public officials during the negotiation process which can help it to acquire inexpensive, high-quality, emergency supplies within a short period from the suppliers.
