Sport Policy and the New Public Management in the Caribbean

Public Management Review, 2009, vol. 11, issue 4, 461-476

Abstract: One of the major themes in the literature on the New Public Management is the extent to which it can be seen as an expression of policy convergence globally, although there is significant divergence as to the meaning, causes, character and consequences of this convergence. In the context of public sport policy, however, the issue has not been directly examined. In this article, the extent to which the approach to public sport policy in Trinidad and Tobago can be seen as an expression of policy convergence or resurgence is examined in the context of the explosion of such policies around the world during the last decade of the twentieth century.
