  • Still the Century of Government? No Signs of Governance Yet!
    STILL THE CENTURY OF GOVERNMENT? NO SIGNS OF GOVERNANCE YET! Kurt Klaudi Klausen ABSTRACT The fiscal crisis has led to recentralization, reorganization and innovation. These en- deavours can better be understood as acts of government than as governance. The heg- emonic position of New Public Governance is questioned from four reference points: (1) reform policies of the Danish state under three consecutive governments since the turn of the century; (2) the fate of a public policy manifesto by 30 Danish researchers (3) research that looked in vain for politicians who identify with and act in accordance with ideals of governance; and (4) the deliberate strategic efforts made by local author- ities to achieve strategic design fit and to push forward the innovation agenda from the top down. As far as signs of New Public Governance, the Danish case should be of par- ticular interest because of Denmark’s history of corporatism and consensus-oriented democracy, a highly decentralized welfare state and the high level of trust among citi- zens and at the workplace. Keywords – Governance, Government, Innovation, Local Government, Reorganization, Strategic Design Fit, Trust INTRODUCTION In the quest to find and develop a concept that can replace New Public Management (NPM, Hood 1991), a number of new modernization concepts have been launched. But are they better at explaining the modernization programmes and public sector behaviour of our time than NPM, which has had a hegemonic status since the early 1980s? We may speak of hegemony as Antonio Gramsci did in his prison notebooks (Gramsci 1926-35) when a particularly internally consistent concept of reform thinking becomes intellectually and culturally dominant to an extent where it is almost indisputable.

    STRING bottleneck analysis for the stretch Oslo – Hamburg Prepared by KombiConsult GmbH (lead partner), Ramboll Norway, Ramboll Sweden and Ramboll Denmark Summary February 2021 Seamless transportation is a prerequisite 1 for growth A high-quality transport infrastructure with sufficient capacity and which is managed efficiently is fundamental for the competitiveness of the economies of the Member States of the European Union (EU). The EU has been contributing to ensure the goal above, amongst other instruments1, through the trans-European transport network (TEN-T) policy. The primary objective for The EU “is to establish a complete and integrated trans-European transport network, covering all Member States and regions and providing the basis for the balanced development of all transport modes in order to facilitate their respective advantages, and thereby maximising the value added for Europe”. The STRING stretch is an integral part of the TEN-T Core Network Corridor Scandinavian-Mediterranean (Scan-Med)2 and already shows a high quality, today. However, and in particular with view on the envisaged completion of the Scan-Med corridor by 2030, still some gaps are expected to remain from today's point of view. Transport and infrastructure bottlenecks can affect the normal flow of transportation, causing unnecessarily long travel times, delays, congestions, costs etc. KombiConsult GmbH and Rambøll have analysed the existing bottlenecks in the STRING - geography outlining future recommended priorities. This paper is a summary of the main findings of the analysis. 1 The White paper 2011 “Roadmap to a single European Transport Area – towards a competitive and resource efficient transport systems with the goal of “A 50% shift of medium distance intercity passenger and freight journeys from road to rail and waterborne transport”.
