This Special Issue of the journal is the outcome of the 8th Trans European Dialogue (TED4), organized by the two sister organizations in public administration research – EGPA and NISPAcee. The TED8 focused on existing performance management efforts. The question is whether performance management can address its critiques when developed as a learning system. The issue tries to understand cross-country and cros-administrative traditions differences triggered by a variety of contextual factors in Europe, but also pays attention to similar challenges that European governments are facing. Papers evaluate current practices as well as propose prospective directions.
