Abstract

Governments have changed their relationships to the institutions and formulated new kinds of expectations on institutional governance, management and leadership (see Chapter 3). As was discussed in Chapter 4, various buffer organisations have been established to link governments with institutions. Thus, both government and buffer organisations are framing the space of action for the institutions, both normatively and more directly through changing the nature of regulatory control. This may mean either a tightening or loosening of central control.
