The Authority as a Mechanism for Public Enterprise: United States Experience

Herrington J. Bryce

International Review of Public Administration, 2001, vol. 6, issue 1, 11-19

Abstract: This article examines the use of “authorities” as nonprofit public enterprises in the US. It focuses on their formation, financing and operation, along with the types of activities that are devolved to them. It appreciates that such authorities exist in other developed countries and that the experience of using these bodies may provide valuable lessons for other countries which are involved in re-engineering their administrative systems.
