Abstract

This chapter starts discussing some challenges in the use of the concept of public value as well as the importance of context for its conception and application, to then discuss the ways Moore’s ideas were considered in the works of some Latin American authors, divided in three general topics: public management; public policy, citizen participation and governance, and ethics. The chapter concludes that for the scholars of this region when decision-makers in the public sector consider public value explicitly they may make better decisions than they would otherwise. Although most of the discussed authors’ works use the concept of public value in a very general way, that is important because it moves policymakers away from any simplistic reliance on economic models to define what is valuable in the public sector.

Fußnoten
1
There may be agreement that certain values, e.g., “freedom,” are important but no real agreement on what those values mean in practice.
 
2
For example, the value of majority rule may be in opposition to the value of minority rights, as can be seen in some contemporary populist regimes.
 
3
These answers may appear more precise than they actually are, and the underlying assumptions of methods such as cost-benefit analysis cannot sustain any detailed analysis (see, for example, Self [1975] and Adler and Posner [1999]).
 
4
Any number of rather ordinary, if vexing, issues have been labelled “wicked,” seemingly as a strategy to have the paper accepted for publication.
 
5
For example, the concept in France of services publics (Esplugas-Labatut, 2018).
 
6
This perspective treats water very much as a service publique in the French manner.
