VICHER, Diana. La reforma neogerencial en Nueva Zelanda. Convergencia [online]. 2007, vol.14, n.45, pp.163-186. ISSN 2448-5799.

This document's objective is to offer a reflection on the general conditions from which the managerial reform of New Zealand emerged, focusing on the particular characteristics of the country. We review the primordial aspects from which the group of ideas that converged to configure the neo-managerial reform emerged, as well as the way in which it was implemented and the stages its subsequent development underwent in this country, which for some time was seen as the most successful case in the application of the new public management and as the example to follow, in worldwide terms.
