Book excerpt: This article notes that at the end of 2000, the government of Argentina (specifically the Subsecretar?a de Gesti?n P?blica, or the Sub-secretary of Public Management) initiated a program of state modernization with the support of the World Bank. This operation featured a key component around results based management systems, specifically the creation of a Programa Cartas Compromiso, or Citizen Charter Program (CCP). The CCP seeks a new relationship between public service providers and users by promoting a higher degree of responsiveness and transparency to ensure greater quality of services, increased information and better monitoring and evaluation. The Carta Compromiso is a public management tool where the highest authority of a service-providing agency makes a public commitment to citizens, laying out a number of goals and results to be met within a given timeframe.
