Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to find out how the administrative paradigm of the times affected the public sector's fire. Method: For this purpose, we investigated the New Public Management (NPM). In addition, the reasons of fire accident of Boryeong thermal power plant were analyzed in the limited values of NMP. Result: In theoretical investigation, the 3 values (managerial accountability, efficiency, expertise) of NMP and evaluation criteria were drew out. In investigation on reasons of fire accident, the improvement of accountability and expertise was insufficient due to the emphasis of the efficiency based on the introduction to free market by neoliberalism in public sector. Conclusion: In conclusion, we confirmed that the values of NMP were limited to forcingly apply to the public sector. This study is expected to contribute basic research references to fire administration theory.
