摘要

New Public Management (NPM) Reforms have been implemented worldwide. The fundamental aim being enhancing efficient and effective delivery of public services. However, its practicability in the public service especially in developing countries has for some reasons criticized for corroding the bureaucratic nature of the public sector which is service orientation. This study examines the challenges for implementing New Public Management reforms in Local Government Authorities (LGAs) in Tanzania. The literature confirms that NPM is an array of reforms which have a direct association with Local Government Reform Programmes (LGRP) implemented in Tanzania since 2000. Conforming to NPM philosophy, LGRP attempts to apply corporate management principles in the delivery of public services provided by LGAs, increase productivity, accountability, transparency and public participation in public service delivery. Two questions related to elements and challenges of NPM in LGAs guided up this study. Both primary and secondary data methods employed in gathering relevant information from respondents in six selected LGAs. Theoretical and empirical reviews helped to gather hands-on information about NPM and Local Government Reform Initiatives in Tanzania. The results show that NPM reforms exists but do not effectively work in Tanzania LGAs. This is attributed by number of challenges LGAs face including complicated nature of its administration and management practices, political and accountability structures and systems. The study concludes by recommending that, LGAs should be guaranteed complete autonomy in managing its affairs and should they be free from any political interference.
