Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twenty essays by four generations of Nigerian scholars are included in this volume, the first to examine the historical, political, economic and comparative dimensions of attempts by the military to restructure the Nigerian federation. Evidence is accumulated in support of the book's central thesis that autocratic rule is antipathetic to the sustenance of genuine federal practice, and that federal restructuring initiated under the tight control of repressive governments cannot but lead to a situation in which federalism is assaulted, if not dismantled. It is argued that, in such a context, the vending of a federal doctrine becomes more or less an exercise in the propagation of false consciousness in the service of power - portraying a picture of divided power to hide the reality of undivided power.

Download or read book Restructuring State and Local Services written by Arnold Raphaelson and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1998-07-23 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Under pressure from both the Federal government and private citizens, local and state governments are restructuring their services, including the areas of education, highway, and transportation. While the federal government wants to reassign responsibilities to local governments, voters want greater efficiency and lower taxes via privatization. This edited collection considers these pressures, the responses from state and local governments, and specific experiments in privatizing local services. The book's opening chapter presents an overview of the changing landscape, while the following chapters consider possibilities in both education and highway services. In education, interdistrict school choice and state-local structures are considered. Highway services are seen in federal-state and state-private relationships. Reporting on a variety of experiments, each chapter illustrates a type of service or arrangement for restructuring governmental services.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Restructuring of the Federal Government The rif costs are more substantial because, of course, we have to pay severance pay and unemployment costs. We have to pay the salary for those who are bumped, and they keep their same level of salary, and the transfer of station costs, as opposed to a buyout, which will only be a severance pay lump sum cash allow ance and a 9 percent payment to the retirement fund. So, again, the difference to rif 850 employees in the Forest Service is million, as opposed to buyout of million, and that is an incredible difference. If reduction in force is used, there will be a disproportionate loss to women, minorities, and our younger workers in general, and we have been striving over the last several years at the usda to in crease our representation of women and minorities in our work force. Regrettably, if we have to resort to rifs, we will lose some of these gains. In fact, California, Region 5 of the Forest Service, has been under a consent decree to increase the numbers of its women employees. So at the usda, we would like to have authorization for use of this buyout as early as possible this year if we are to be able to finance the payments and avoid salary and benefits expenses for Fiscal Year 1995 and beyond.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook reader discusses the importance of organization and reorganization in the contemporary structure of the American federal government. First, it deals with the decision to change structural arrangements within the bureaucracy. Through a range of conceptual readings, it explores why reorganization and changing the structure of government continues to happen, allowing the reader to understand the multiple and often conflicting goals involved in changing organizational structure. It highlights two contrasting approaches to reorganization: a management approach and a policy approach.Secondly, it discusses the consequences of reorganization activity by focusing on the results of a number of federal government reorganizations. The examples include the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Department of Education, and proposals to establish a U.S. Department of Food Safety.This is an ideal text for courses in public management, public policy, and political science courses covering the Presidency and Congress.

Download or read book Restructuring Nigeria s Inter Governmental Relations Practice written by Polycarp Munya and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2022-06-20 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2022 in the subject Organisation and administration - Public administration, , course: INTER-GOVERNMENTAL RELATIONS, language: English, abstract: This paper assesses Nigeria’s inter-governmental relations practice in its present context and the necessity for its restructuring. The paper proposes that the Nigeria’s federal structure is built on faulty foundation which is the 1999 constitution that was bequeathed by the Retd Gen. Abdulsalami led military junta, hence the persistent calls for a national sovereign conference, zoning of key political offices in the country, including the Presidency and currently the restructuring of the federal structure for socio-political stability. This paper, which is essentially historical and descriptive in nature, utilizes data drawn mainly from secondary sources and analyzed using content analysis. The paper discovers that Nigeria’s federalism has failed to meet the requirements as prescribed by K. C. Wheare, as so much power is concentrated at the federal level while the state and local governments continue to exist as appendages which is contrary to the spirit of true federalism.
