CONTENTS
DESCRIPTION
The past two decades have been marked by a period of substantial, and often fundamental, change in public administration. This encyclopaedia provides a complete review and guide to past and present knowledge in this essential field of enquiry.
Assembling an outstanding team of scholars from around the world, it comprehensively explores the current state of the art in academic thinking and the current structures and process for the administration of public policy following this period of rapid transformation and change.
A dominant theme throughout this encyclopaedia is a critical reflection on the utility of scholarly theory and the extent to which government practices inform the development of this theory. To this end it serves as an essential guide for both the practice of public administration today and its ongoing development as an academic discipline.
A major landmark publication, Encyclopaedia of Public Administration will be indispensable to the teaching, study and practice of public administration for students, academics and professionals everywhere.
