政府购买公共服务理论述评与反思

Review and Reflection on the Theory of Government Purchase Public Service

政府购买公共服务是我国政府治理创新的工具。基于新公共管理理论、委托-代理理论和网络治理理论的不同特点和人性假设比较,可以进一步理清各理论模型所指向的政策问题以及目标。通过不同理论和分析框架之间的比较,能够进一步认识国外理论模型在分析中国政府购买公共服务政策实践中的有限性和差异性。我国政府购买公共服务的中心问题是政府公共服务责任体系的完善和购买服务公益性的保障。

Government purchase public services is a tool for Chinese government governance innovation.Based on the different characteristics of new public management theory,the ＂principal-agent＂theory and the network governance theory and comparing with the human nature hypothesis,we can further clarify the policy problems and goals pointed out by the theoretical model.Also with comparison between different theories and analytical framework,we can understand the limitations and differences to use western theoretical model in the analysis of the Chinese government ＇s purchase public service practice.The central issue of the government＇s purchase of public services is the improvement of the government＇s public service responsibility system and the guarantee of the public property of the purchase service.
