Download or read book The Government of the District of Columbia written by Walter Fairleigh Dodd and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of the District of Columbia: A Study in Federal and Municipal Administration The District of Columbia occupies a unique position in the governmental organization of the United States. Its government has the combined functions of city, county, and state, and unites features of municipal, state, and federal organization. It is a federal district, governed to a large extent by the federal government. A study of the government of the District of Columbia involves two somewhat distinct elements: (1) An analysis of the adaptation of federal organs to the control of municipal affairs. (2) A study of purely municipal activities, which are being conducted in a manner not very different from that prevailing in other cities of the United States. It is on account of the two-fold character of the government of the federal district that this book has been called a study in federal and municipal administration. In this study familiarity with the organization of the federal government is assumed. A knowledge is also assumed of the working of the committee system in the two houses of Congress - of information contained in works like McConachie's Congressional Committees and Wilson's Congressional Government. The analysis of the committee system contained in this book is made simply with reference to the relation of Congress to the federal district, and little attempt is made to generalize with respect to the working of the committee system in other matters.

Download or read book Organization Theory and Public Management written by Jonathan R. Tompkins and published by Waveland Press. This book was released on 2023-08-16 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organization Theory and Public Management is written for current and future public managers. Understanding organization theory helps managers at all levels define program objectives, overcome constraints, and accomplish mandated purposes. Armed with theoretical and conceptual knowledge, managers can better identify the factors that affect organizational performance, determine how these factors interrelate, and decide how best to resolve problems and attain goals. Familiarity with organization theory can facilitate fresh ways to view organizational challenges and discover new paths for pursuing change. Organization theory, supported by intuition and common sense, can be a powerful guide to action. The book approaches each organization theory school of thought on its own terms, drawing out its implications for public management as objectively as possible. Chapter 1 introduces organization theory as a field of study, chapter 2 establishes the unique context of public management, and chapter 3 presents three analytical frameworks for assessing the theories of organization covered in the twelve chapters that follow.

Download or read book Creating Public Value written by Mark H. Moore and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1997-03-25 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A seminal figure in the field of public management, Mark H. Moore presents his summation of fifteen years of research, observation, and teaching about what public sector executives should do to improve the performance of public enterprises. Useful for both practicing public executives and those who teach them, this book explicates some of the richest of several hundred cases used at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government and illuminates their broader lessons for government managers. Moore addresses four questions that have long bedeviled public administration: What should citizens and their representatives expect and demand from public executives? What sources can public managers consult to learn what is valuable for them to produce? How should public managers cope with inconsistent and fickle political mandates? How can public managers find room to innovate? Moore’s answers respond to the well-understood difficulties of managing public enterprises in modern society by recommending specific, concrete changes in the practices of individual public managers: how they envision what is valuable to produce, how they engage their political overseers, and how they deliver services and fulfill obligations to clients. Following Moore’s cases, we witness dilemmas faced by a cross-section of public managers: William Ruckelshaus and the Environmental Protection Agency; Jerome Miller and the Department of Youth Services; Miles Mahoney and the Park Plaza Redevelopment Project; David Sencer and the swine flu scare; Lee Brown and the Houston Police Department; Harry Spence and the Boston Housing Authority. Their work, together with Moore’s analysis, reveals how public managers can achieve their true goal of producing public value.

Download or read book State and Municipal Government in the United States Classic Reprint written by Everett Kimball and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from State and Municipal Government in the United States In spite of the importance and interest of international and national questions of policy and in spite of the rapidly widening sphere of federal legislation and administration the life of an American citizen is affected more often by the agencies of local government than by those of the national government. Under the protection of the Federal Constitution the life and property of the citizen are governed and protected by state, not federal, laws. In his political capacity the citizen takes part in both the federal and the local government in accordance with state regulations. Acting under the state laws are the particular political units in which the citizen may reside - the county, city, or town. To the authorities of these the citizen most fre quently looks for governmental support and regulation. Yet these local bodies are distinctly subordinate to and created by the authority of the state and are supervised and regulated by it. It is the purpose of this book to discuss the organization, the distribution of powers and functions, and the operation of these agencies of local government. Other books have dealt with state government and state administration or with munici pal government and municipal administration, but this book covers both state and municipal government, treating the two as a single manifestation of local government. With this in mind the book has been divided into five parts. In Part I the federal system and the state constitutions as the fundamental basis of local government are discussed. Part II deals with the political system - the electorate in theory and in action, in primaries, in election campaigns, and in its direct action in the use of the initiative, referendum, and recall. Part III deals with state government - the different organs and the functions which these organs perform. State administration, which is rapidly being extended both directly and through the supervisory power of the state, is discussed in its various manifestations.
