摘要公共管理和私人管理有什么不同？这个有争议的问题对为什么和如何研究公共管理以及如何管理公共组织具有影响。因此，我们首次系统地回顾了自Boyne(2002a)以来关于公共管理者和私人管理者知觉和行为差异的实证文献。我们回顾了与五个理论期望相关的41项研究：与私营部门管理者相比，公共管理者经历了更复杂的利益相关者环境，更严格的问责要求，更模糊的目标，更少的自主性，以及不同的价值观。回顾的研究结果提供了与所有五个主题相关的差异的证据。然而，作为一个领域，我们需要对作为公共组织与私人组织意味着什么有更好的理解和可操作性。此外，我们认为，现在是时候超越二分法的差异/无差异的讨论，专注于实质性的、背景因素和行为影响。
Abstract What is the difference between public and private management? This contested question has implications for why and how to study public management and for how to manage public organizations. Therefore, we conduct the first systematic review of the empirical literature of perceptual and behavioral differences between public and private managers since Boyne (2002a). We review 41 studies related to five theoretical expectations: Public managers experience a more complex stakeholder environment, stricter accountability demands, more ambiguous goals, less autonomy, and different values than their private sector counterparts do. The findings from the reviewed studies provide evidence of differences related to all five themes. However, as a field, we need a more refined understanding and operationalization of what it means to be a public versus a private organization. Additionally, we argue it is time to move beyond the dichotomous difference/no-difference discussion and focus on substantive, contextual factors and behavioral effects.
