How "The Government Performance and Results Act" Borrowed from the Experience of OECD Countries

Resumen

To what extent did the United States draw upon the experience of OECD countries in developing a framework for "managing for results"? A great deal the author argues, tracing how The Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA) borrowed from the experience of Australia and OECD countries, and how this experience influenced both the legislative and executive branches in formulation and passage of GPRA that included elements of results-oriented strategic planning and resource assessment.
