Although considerable attention has been focused on the selection of minority candidates for political office, the impact of the increasing numbers of high-level minority administrative appointees has not, unitl now, been systematically examined. This volume presents the views of minority administrators together with analyses by three prominent scholars in the field. It is clear that minority administrators confront unique pressures and conflicts in governmental systems that have not always been responsive to the concerns of minority groups. Their racial or ethnic "loyalty" is frequently questioned and applied as a test on critical issues by minority and majority communities alike. Blending theoretical and practical perspectives, this volume offers informed, constructive analyses of a broad range of issues of concern to both minorities and the field of public administration.
