Abstract
As a technique to reform political and welfare institutions, NPM and, particularly in Denmark, the idea of "competitive State" replacing the "welfare state", gathered momentum in the years 1990-2015 and spread among all ruling political parties and governments in Sweden and Denmark. Some typical examples of this type of reform are briefly described; moreover, the essay reports on some reactions, research studies, and in-depth analyses concerning a set of reforms that can be largely referred to the NPM principle.
