Program Objectives:
Provide a clear overview of the major issues relevant to public action:
The Law and Public Management Master’s Degree program was created to provide training for those with the capability of leading and overseeing modernization processes within the public sector, including reforming finance and accounting, policy evaluation and control, human resource management, and the associated organizational changes. Particular emphasis is placed on the legal tools employed in relation to public action. One of the primary objectives of the program is to enable students on the apprenticeship program or in executive education to master these legal tools in a practical sense.
Within the Master’s program, two specialized tracks allow for individualized strengthening of skills in public law (public procurement, public finance, public property law, legislative drafting, administrative litigation), as well as in public management and national and local public policy.
One of the unique aspects of this Master’s Degree is the variety of speakers contributing to the program, from senior civil servants to consultants, lawyers, magistrates, teachers and university researchers.
The partnership between Université Paris Dauphine – PSL and the INSP (National Public Service Institute, formerly the ENA) was established with the aim of bringing together students in initial training with those on apprenticeship programs and in executive education. Students in executive education are either managers working in the public sector or professionals working with public sector organizations.
Work-study split: 3 days within government agencies/consulting firms/authorities - 2 days of classes per week: Thursday evening, all day Friday and Saturday morning.
A Study Trip is planned to take place in June.
Lectures are based on real-world case studies.
First semester, core curriculum: courses in Public Law, Public Management, Public Finance and Accounting, and Marketing.
In the second semester, students can choose to personalize the program according to their goals, with a major in public action tools, or public sector marketing.
Students will write a research paper relating to their professional experience, applying the multidisciplinary teaching from the program. This research paper is focused on practical application.
Courses taught off-site:
The Master’s Degree program is delivered in partnership with the INSP, and on Fridays teaching takes place at the INSP (formerly the ENA), Rue de l’Observatoire, in the 6th arrondissement in Paris.
Some classes may be taught off-site, within public institutions (such as the Assemblée Nationale and the Musée d’Orsay)

Course content:
Plan indicatif :
Chapitre 1 : Quand et pourquoi le gouvernement doit-il intervenir ?
L’économie publique étudie l’intervention des pouvoirs publics dans l’économie. Cette intervention a principalement
deux motivations
(i) L’efficacité, améliorer l’efficience de l’économie (opérer des changements qui améliorent le bien être de certains sans
dégrader la situation des autres).
(ii) L’équité qui cherche à atteindre un équilibre socialement plus juste, en particulier via la mise en place de schéma de
redistribution.
Nous étudierons dans ce chapitre (i) pourquoi le marché peut parfois ne pas converger vers un équilibre efficient, (ii)
pourquoi il est nécessaire d’intervenir pour redistribuer les ressources.
Chapitre 2 : Les grands enjeux microéconomiques de l’action du gouvernement en
matière de fiscalité ?
L’intervention du gouvernement modifie les comportements des agents de telle sorte qu’il n’est pas toujours évident
de savoir qui supporte in fine réellement la taxe (question de l’incidence fiscale) et quelles seront les revenus
effectivement collectés (question de l’incitation).
Nous étudierons ces questions en étudiant trois grands types de taxe : taxe sur la valeur ajoutée, taxe sur le capital et
taxe sur le revenu du travail.
La politique de baisse de charges sur les bas salaires sera étudiée en cas d’étude.
Chapitre 3 : Les grands enjeux macroéconomiques de l’action du gouvernement en
matière de politique budgétaire
Il s’agit d’étudier les conditions d’efficacité, les limites et les contraintes de la politique budgétaire. Un focus particulier
sera porté sur la dynamique et la soutenabilité de la dette publique.
Chapitre 4 : La provision de biens publics
Après avoir discuté de la spécificité des biens publics, nous étudierons la question des biens publics locaux, et de la
provision publique de biens privés comme l’éducation
Chapitre 5 : La régulation
Deux thèmes principaux seront abordés (la régulation financière et le droit à la concurrence)
Skills to be acquired:
Compétences théoriques et analytiques
Compétences techniques
Compétences critiques et transversales
Évaluer la pertinence et les limites des politiques publiques en fonction des objectifs visés (croissance, redistribution, stabilité économique).
Mobiliser les outils de l’économie pour éclairer les débats publics (fiscalité, dette, régulation des marchés).
