本文通过对四个欧洲国家（奥地利、英国、德国、荷兰）的两个研究领域（中世纪历史和红色生物技术）的案例研究，探讨了新公共管理（NPM）改革对学术研究的影响。我们的研究结果表明，与新制度主义激发的期望相反，治理向NPM的转变确实很重要。根据我们对NPM改革在工作中的讨论，提出了一些关于其影响的假设：NPM可能会加强研究的外部指导，同时减少学术自主权，可能会减少学术研究的多样性，鼓励提高学术研究的生产力和短期主义，不太可能加强学术研究的相关性和用户导向，并可能推动研究与教学的脱钩。
The article explores the consequences of New Public Management (NPM) reforms for academic research based on case studies in two fields of research (medieval history and red biotechnology) in four European countries (Austria, England, Germany, The Netherlands). Our findings show that – contrary to expectations inspired by neo-institutionalism – shifts in governance towards NPM do matter. According to our discussion of NPM-reforms at work a number of hypotheses on their effects are put forward: NPM is likely to strengthen external steering of research while reducing academic autonomy, is likely to decrease the variety pool of academic research, to encourage increasing productivity as well as short-termism of academic research, is unlikely to strengthen the relevance and user orientation of academic research, and likely to push towards a de-coupling of research and teaching.
