Inhaltsangabe

Written by two authors with a wide range of experience in international
affairs, this introductory text addresses both the commonalities and
diversity of administrative practice around the world, including a succinct
but thorough overview of PA in the United States. It combines solid
conceptual foundations with strong coverage of nuts-and-bolts "how to"
topics, such as personnel management, procurement, and budgeting, and
covers both developed countries and developing and transitional
economies.The book's chapters are organized into four major sections:
government functions and organization; management of government activity;
interaction between government and citizens; and prospects of
administrative reform. Plentiful illustrations and examples throughout the
book, and "What to Expect" sections and discussion questions in each
chapter, make this an ideal text for any PA course that takes a global
perspective.
