Samenvatting:

Using the term "publicness" to mean "the degree to which the organization is affected by political authority," Bozeman (public policy, Georgia Institute of Technology) argues that such publicness, impacting all organizations, is critical to understanding organization behavior and management. With this idea at the heart of his discussion, he reviews the comparative literature on governmental and private sector organization, considers theoretical problems of the comparative approach, discusses models of economic and political authority impacting organizations, presents a multidimensional model of publicness, and applies the model to the behavior of research and development organizations.
