Résumé

The five contributions refer to the reference theoretical background of comparative public administration, which represent a prior research axis of EGPA-GEAP and PSGs (Permanent Study Groups), which adopt for some years this thematic, especially the book of G. Bouckaert and C. Pollitt regarding the comparative analysis of public management reforms (strategic directions and intervention domains).The second part of the work deals with the « Business-government relationship » (BGR) from a point of view that integrates innovative and original traditional BGR's perspective, focused on the relationship between profit-oriented private companies, financial intermediaries and national and local government, with the relationship between the government and the non-profit sector.
