Research Interests: Altan's scholarly work centers on human resources management, performance appraisal, local governments, globalization, poverty, and management history. His research critically examines administrative reforms in Turkey, including impacts of New Public Management on public institutions, public-private partnerships in agriculture and healthcare, and governance perceptions across municipalities. He frequently employs localized case studies from Isparta, Samsun, and Izmir to analyze policy implementation and institutional change.
Publication Trends: Analysis of Altan's 15 most recent publications (2013-2022) reveals three dominant research trajectories: (1) Local governance reforms driven by legislation like Law 6360 on metropolitan municipalities, (2) Sector-specific institutional analyses in agriculture and healthcare, and (3) Historical and theoretical explorations of administrative concepts from cameralism to modern governance.
