Abstract
This article reviews a new three-volume collection of previously published articles on how
public or private organizations are operationalizing the principles of public value: firstly,
‘Measuring the public value of e-government: A case study from Sri Lanka’; secondly, ‘New
Public Management to public value: Paradigmatic change and managerial implications’,
and lastly, ‘Developing an understanding of result-based management through public
value theory’. All three articles in this paper also explain how public value creates service,
trust, and other positive outcomes, and how public organizations use public value in
measuring the dimensions of public value generation in terms of e-government. Finally, an
article on the idea of public value has been proposed as a way of understanding government
activity, informing policy-making and constructing service delivery. Employing
public value as a tool for result-based management through New Public Management, and
achieving it through public organization is an essential recommendation of this article.
