PERFORMANCE INDICATORS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ¡VGOVERNMENTS OF THE BRITISH, THE U.S. AND JAPAN AS REFERENCES TO OUR GOVERNMENT

Government reorganization movement around the world and public management theories put foci on ¡§Government Performance¡¨ in order to attain an ideal government. In such government, people can have the best government performance output while using the least public resources.
Due to the characteristics that the administration scope of local governments is shrinking and that local governments are able to adapt to local conditions, performance appraisal might be easier. But with the ambiguous accountabilities among government organizations, the performance itself is still hard to be judged. Furthermore, differences between quantitative indicators and qualitative standpoints make it much challenging in the development and establishment of the important tool of local government performance appraisal-performance indicators.
This research attempts using the establishment experiences and results of the performance indicators by the U.K., the U.S. and the Japan governments, contrasting the current domestic methods, and conducting in-depth interviews of experts, scholars, and representatives of government agents. This research not only considers the difficulties and plights while developing performance indicators of domestic local governments, but also provides possible directions and suggestions as references for the development of performance indicators of local governments in our country, for the propellant of government reorganization as well as for the increase of national competition.
