This is a study of the formation of the ‘Book’ of Psalms that attempts to provide answers to two fundamental questions: “how?” and “why?”.

”Låt den offentliga sektorn återinföra administratörer”

Förlorad arbetsglädje. Många medarbetare inom offentlig förvaltning motiveras av inre drivkrafter, inte yttre. Att då, som under senare år, fokusera på kontrollsystem kan ge effekten att motivationen minskar. Samtidigt har medborgarna rätt till korrekt myndighetsutövning.
