Book excerpt: As the popularity of New Public Management theory rose in the late 20th century, contracting out government services became a big debate. The debate is whether contracting out government services makes the government more efficient and effective of their operations. This research paper provides an extensive literature review of the history of contracting out services and the effects of this mechanism in the federal, state, and local government. The aim of this research is to provide a systematic case study of the process and effects of contracting out government services in the County of Los Angeles. Through this systematic review and analysis, this study hopes to contribute its findings of both positive and negative effects for future public administrators who will consider contracting out as an alternative tool in administrating county governments.
