Dr. Murtazashvili will use the Thornburgh Archive to develop a series of four case studies that will become a critical part of two management/governance courses in GSPIA. Of the four cases developed, two will be based on domestic issues and two will be based on international issues. Policy case studies will analyze how the Governor was involved in making difficult policy choices and analyze the cost-benefit calculus employed. Management case studies will focus on how the Governor affected the public sector reform. These cases will focus on stakeholder analysis to understand how the governor affected change in large bureaucracies. These case studies will not only be utilized in GSPIA coursework, but they will be made public on a website where they can be downloaded, free of charge, by instructors around the world for incorporation into management and public policy courses.
