Abstract

In the United Kingdom, the Quangos (quasi-autonomous non-governmental organizations) are called non-governmental, semi-independent non-governmental organizations. Quangos, also known as non-departmental public bodies (NDPB), have major roles in welfare services. The exsistence of quangos, has recently become an important issue of political debate; definitions, the abundance of numbers, controllability and accountability were discussed. Britain was described as a liberal welfare state in Esping Andersen's classification of welfare regimes. Although the Quangos' presence strengthens this thesis, it shows that welfare pluralism is adopted in the UK and that a mixed welfare regime is maintained. In this respect, the United Kingdom is called as quango state by some authors. The main thesis of this article is that a mixed welfare regime is maintained in the United Kingdom and an important example of this is the quangos. In this study, the concept of welfare pluralism, which is rarely mentioned in the Turkish literature, is examined and discussed the role of quangos in public administration, an important indicator of welfare pluralism in the United Kingdom.

Özet

Birleşik Krallık’ta Quangolar (quasi-autonomous non-governmental organisatisons) yarı bağımsız-hükümet dışı sivil toplum kuruluşları olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Quangolar diğer bir adı ile bakanlık dışı kamu örgütleri (NDPB) (Non-Departmental Public Bodies), diğer kamu hizmetlerinin sunumunda olduğu gibi refah hizmetlerinin sunumunda da önemli rollere sahiptirler. Quangoların varlıkları, son dönemlerde politik tartışmaların önemli bir meselesi haline gelmiş; tanımları, sayılarının çokluğu, denetlenebilirlikleri ve hesap verebilirlikleri tartışma konusu olmuştur. Birleşik Krallık, Esping Andersen’in refah rejimleri sınıflandırmasında liberal refah devleti olarak nitelendirilmiştir. Quangoların varlıkları, bu tezi güçlendirse de Birleşik Krallık’ta refah çoğulculuğunun benimsendiğini göstermektedir. Birleşik Krallık, bu bakımdan kimi yazarlar tarafından “quango devleti” olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Bu makalenin temel tezi, Birleşik Krallık’ta karma bir refah rejimi sürdürüldüğü ve bunun önemli bir örneğini quangoların oluşturduğudur. Çalışmada Türkçe literatürde az değinilen refah çoğulculuğu kavramı irdelenmiş ve Birleşik Krallık’ta refah çoğulculuğunun önemli bir örneğini oluşturan quangoların kamu yönetimi içerisindeki tartışılan rolleri ele alınmıştır.
