Public-Private Partnerships have gained immense popularity since their inception in the 1980s and have become a preferred procurement tool for the governments. Despite PPPs being widespread, the scholars have divided opinions mainly into two schools of thought about PPPs. The proponents consider it as a governance tool; however, the opponents see it as a substitute terminology for privatization and a 'language game' from the vocabulary of neoliberalism. This dissertation takes a qualitative empirical approach to study PPP in light of the governance approach and the principles of governance by taking Pakistan as a case. The semi-structured interviews serve as the field data collection tool, and the respondents consisted of four groups being the public and private sector, civil society, and academia. The analysis of the field data diagnosed the institutional health and identified the inadequacies in the PPP model of Pakistan. The dissertation gives recommendations for managerial, political, and legal reform of the PPP model of Pakistan. The research concludes that the PPP model of Pakistan partially complies with the principles of good governance. There are multiple economic, political, and administrative prerequisites that ensure the effective v implementation of PPP. Hence, the government motives define the trajectory of PPPs towards becoming a governance tool or a mere 'language game.'

Public Administration and Ethics: The Turkish Case
Bozoğlu, Bengünur; Üstüner, Mustafa Yılmaz; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2022-12-2)
Around the world, interest in public administration ethics has considerably increased since the 1970s. That time is marked with an emergence of public management, later new public management understanding. This period also corresponds to rising of corruption in public administration globally. Hence, mostly with the pressures of international organizations, developing countries started to make ethics regulations in bureaucracies and established institutions to control the system. Turkey, too, has not been ex...
Big data maturity models for the public sector: a review of state and organizational level models
OKUYUCU, ARAS; Yavuz, Nilay (Emerald, 2020-07-01)

Design/methodology/approach A literature search is conducted using Web of Science an...
The impact of ICTs-related innovation on public values in public sector
Karkın, Naci; Yavuz, Nilay; Sevinç, Ecem Buse; Gölükçetin, Ece (2018-06-01)
Public sector innovation presents an understudied field when compared to innovation in elsewhere. This void unprecedentedly grows when information and communication technologies (ICTs) are at stake. Though the presence of developments and studies are growing in recent years, there is still a continuing need to explore the notion of public values (PVs) in public administration in its possible extent. When taking ICTs as intermediary mechanisms, it is arguable that there is a void regarding the effects of pub...
The impact of public private partnership model on healthcare service provision: The case of Ankara City Hospital
Küçükkahraman, Murat; Üstüner, Mustafa Yılmaz; Yazıcıoğlu, Kamil; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2022-6)
The way of providing public services by the state has been transformed throughout history. Historically, the mechanisms like concession, public procurement etc., were used in line with the political and economic context of the time. The rise of neoliberalism introduced new mechanisms for infrastructural projects, including Public Private Partnerships (PPPs). This study analyses the emergence and development of PPPs worldwide and in Turkey. As one of the leading countries that use the PPP model in infrastruc...
