Abstract

ABSTRACT This article analyzes whether and how managerial and Weberian value systems can coexist or collide in different organisational settings. We compare six public organisations in two Latin American countries to study whether public sector reforms imply a clash or a crowding-out between these values systems. The article uses data from 60 semi-structured interviews with public officials of different hierarchical levels, in public central government agencies with different ages, modernisation stages, and organisational structures. Our analysis reveals that even in different settings and types of organisations, Weberian values coexist with managerial ones and with other sets of values related to governance or political patronage. We conclude that managerial values do not necessarily crowd out other value systems as previous studies have found and appear to be adapted to the organisational and national contexts in which they operate.
公共价值观的排挤?拉丁美洲公共部门改革中的管理价值观与韦伯价值观
本文分析了在不同的组织环境中,管理价值体系和韦伯价值体系是否能够共存,以及如何共存。我们比较了两个拉丁美洲国家的六个公共组织,以研究公共部门改革是否意味着这些价值观体系之间的冲突或排挤。本文使用了60个半结构化访谈的数据,这些访谈来自不同年龄、不同现代化阶段和不同组织结构的公共中央政府机构的不同等级的公职人员。我们的分析表明,即使在不同的环境和类型的组织中,韦伯价值观与管理价值观以及与治理或政治赞助相关的其他价值观并存。我们得出的结论是,管理价值观并不一定会像以前的研究发现的那样排挤其他价值体系,而且似乎会适应它们所处的组织和国家环境。
