“…In the UK, social services were entirely delivered in house by local government staffs into the late 1970s; under central government pressure since then, the local authorities have gone furthest in outsourcing social services to outside (mainly commercial) providers by way of competitive tendering ( Wilson and Game 2006 , 353ff. ;Bönker et al 2010 ;Hill et al 2010 ). Another far-reaching change in the conduct of public functions has occurred since the 1980s, when central government has proceeded to create self-standing, local level, single-purpose institutions known as quangos (quasi-nongovernmental organizations) for the implementation of administrative tasks.…”

“…поява і розповсюдження неоліберальних політичних переконань та принципів NPM суттєво вплинули на інституційну і діючу ситуацію в наданні соціальних послуг. Зокрема на квазімонополію, яку місцева влада використовувала в наданні соціальних послуг як ключовий елемент післявоєнного "соціал-демократичного режиму добробуту", що була радикально скасована після 1980 р. при неоліберальному уряді М. Тетчер, який відкрив ринок послуг для всіх (здебільшого для приватно-комерційного сектору) [14]. Винятком є шведська модель надання соціальних послуг, яка зберегла соціал-демократичні традиції надання соціальних послуг муніципальними органами влади; але були введені квазіринкові механізми, такі як: поділ між споживачем і постачальником для надання послуг на місцевому рівні, додавання підприємницьких принципів роботи [15].…”
