[Call for Contribution] First Edition of the International Conference on the Regulation and Governance of Public Action

Public policies seek to transform problematic situations through operational measures, requiring the involvement of various actors, the mobilization of resources and the intervention of regulatory bodies, often accompanied by confrontations of knowledge and conflicts of interest. Since the 1970s, public administration has become more complex with decentralization, globalization and the rise of multinationals and NGOs, making public action multi-level and multi-actor. This has led to the delegation of certain functions to civil society and the private sector, showing that rationality does not govern all decisions, which generates tensions and controversies, with regulatory systems in crisis and giving in to the demands of society. global governance.
