Abstract
States that public administration reform has been a global phenomenon over the last two decades, but that its justification, impact and effectiveness are strongly contested. Reveals that evidence across developed countries varies, but in developing countries conclusions are more difficult to arrive at. Examines the case of the Republic of Kazakhstan taking into account the views of local government. Concludes that, in the case of Kazakhstan there is considerable support for an enhanced, more autonomous role for local government.
