Globalization has not only caused capitalism to diffuse beyond the borders of nation-states, but also enabled Western multi-national enterprises to accumulate capital by utilizing global strategies. This model has led states to reorientate their economic development goals and participate in the movement to re-invent government guided by the neo-liberal theory of new public management. Governments have introduced the logic of the market economy and the management know-how of enterprises, and stressed the importance of establishing partnership with the private sector to provide public services and implement public tasks. However, this has made the public-private configuration increasingly blurred.This article, firstly, discusses the concept of globalization and its impact on the public sector, and then, secondly, divides the government's executive organizations into three categories according to their nature, namely capital, public, and social. These organizations are in charge of regulation, distribution, and guidance provisions respectively. Attempts are also made to examine the impacts of de-regulation, privatization and marketization witnessed under the new public management at the global level on these three categories of executive organizations as well as possible ensuing problems. Thirdly, this article analyzes institutional arrangements and rearrangements in the public-private configuration in Taiwan against the historic context and political/economic structure at different stages, in particular the impact of globalization on the organic reconstruction of the Executive Yuan. Furthermore, this article proposes that the executive organizations and the third sector in Taiwan should borrow from each other's institutional logic and arrangements, including the institutional transformation of capital executive organizations, public executive organizations, and social executive organizations, in order to balance out the excessive inclination toward corporatization in the re-inventing of government processes. |
