Dataset description

The database includes approximately 520 academic studies and official reports of impacts of new public management (NPM) reforms across Western, Central and Eastern Europe. The database has been compiled during 2011 as part of the EU-funded project Coordinating for Cohesion in the Public Sector of the Future (COCOPS) by a team of researchers at 11 universities in 10 different European countries. On the basis of the database, Christopher Pollitt and Sorin Dan have produced a meta-analysis of impacts of NPM reforms in Europe. https://lirias.kuleuven.be/retrieve/716d3783-797a-4c8b-9caa-ea4816f4d686 The database can be filtered according to one or more of the following criteria: type of document, sector, country, new public management (NPM) tool and mechanism and year of publication. Additionally, it can be searched using one or more keywords typed in the field ‘bibliographic information.'

Yes. Selected APIs include a free API quota, so your team can validate coverage, freshness, response shape and workflow fit before asking for a production plan.

Often yes, but usage rights depend on the source license and dataset. We surface source, license and update metadata where available, and can help review terms before a production integration.

Maintained APIs include update metadata where available. For production integrations, we can add history, monitoring and push updates so changes are easier to detect and act on.

Production APIs can add SLA, stable identifiers, versioning support, history, push updates and direct support around the data your product or AI workflow depends on.
