劳动力市场政策制度不断变化，这不仅是因为推出了激活政策，而且还因为公共就业服务管理的变化。本文认为，由于新公共管理思想的“发现”，公共环境服务已经发生了根本性的转变。在欧洲背景下，这些想法首先出现在英国和瑞典，随后通过经济合作与发展组织和欧盟传播，然后被批判性认识社区内化，包括PES负责人网络和世界PES协会。通过接受、传播和内化这些新的管理思想，欧洲广泛采用了共同的治理做法，包括业绩、质量和个案管理。然而，决策者未能就当地组织劳动力市场政策交付的“最佳做法”模式达成一致。因此，没有确立霸权思想，重大的民族差异继续存在。
Labour-market policy regimes are in flux, not only because of the introduction of activation policies but also because of changes in the governance of public employment services (PESs). This paper argues that PESs have been fundamentally transformed due to the ‘discovery’ of New Public Management ideas. In the European context, these ideas first emerged in the UK and Sweden, were subsequently diffused through the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development and the European Union and then internalized by critical epistemic communities, including the network of the heads of PESs and the World Association of PESs. Through the acceptance, diffusion and internalization of these new management ideas, common governance practices, including performance, quality and case management, have been widely adopted in Europe. Policymakers have failed, however, to agree on a ‘best-practice’ model with respect to the local organization of labour-market policy delivery. Consequently, no hegemonic idea was established, and significant national differences continue to persist.
