Book excerpt: Excerpt from Study of Public Administration The call for a publicly recruited and properly trained public service had been anticipated by preliminary civil service legislation, but his remarks indicated the correct direction for the development of a civil service cultured and self-sufficient enough to act with sense and vigor, and yet to find arbitrariness or class spirit out of the question. He set an ideal for a public service fit for a democracy. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Administrative State

Download or read book The Administrative State written by Dwight Waldo and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This classic text, originally published in 1948, is a study of the public administration movement from the viewpoint of political theory and the history of ideas. It seeks to review and analyze the theoretical element in administrative writings and to present the development of the public administration movement as a chapter in the history of American political thought. The objectives of The Administrative State are to assist students of administration to view their subject in historical perspective and to appraise the theoretical content of their literature. It is also hoped that this book may assist students of American culture by illuminating an important development of the first half of the twentieth century. It thus should serve political scientists whose interests lie in the field of public administration or in the study of bureaucracy as a political issue; the public administrator interested in the philosophic background of his service; and the historian who seeks an understanding of major governmental developments. This study, now with a new introduction by public policy and administration scholar Hugh Miller, is based upon the various books, articles, pamphlets, reports, and records that make up the literature of public administration, and documents the political response to the modern world that Graham Wallas named the Great Society. It will be of lasting interest to students of political science, government, and American history.

Book Politics and Administration

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Politics and Administration: A Study in Government The purpose of this little work is to show, particularly from a consideration of political conditions as they now exist in the United States, that the formal governmental system as set forth in the law is not always the same as the actual system. The attempt is also made to indicate what changes in the formal system of the United States must be made, in order to make the actual system conform, more closely than it does at present, to the political ideas upon which the formal system is based. This attempt has involved an analysis of the operations of government and a consideration of their interrelations, together with a study of the position of the political party and of its leaders, whom we are beginning to call "bosses."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The National Institute of Health: A Study in Public Administration In regard to the second general source, it should be added that within the last few months I have spoken with the men at the Institute specifically about the administrative problems arising out of their work. This opportunity was afforded me as a result of my father's' position as volunteer worker at the laboratory since 1924. Only because of his frequent conversations with me of the work and the men at the Institute, have I been able to reach some under standing concerning the methods and ideals behind scientific research in general, and of the character of the Institute in particular.

Book excerpt: Writing the perfect complement to their bestseller, Introducing Public Administration, Shafritz and Borick highlight the great drama inherent in public policy -- and the ingenuity of its makers and administrators -- in this new casebook that brings thrilling, true life adventures in public administration to life in an engaging, witty style. Drawing on a unique assortment of literary, historic, and modern examples, Cases in Public Policy and Administration exposes students to public administration in practice by telling the tales of: How Thurgood Marshall led the legal fight for civil rights and made it possible for Barack Obama to become president How the ideas of an academic economist and a famous novelist led to the recession that started in 2008 How Al Gore really deserves just a little bit of credit for inventing the Internet How the decision was made by President Harry Truman to drop the first atomic bomb on Japan in order to end World War II How the current American welfare state was inspired by a German chancellor How a Nazi war criminal inadvertently provided the world with a lesson in bureaucratic ethics How Napoleon Bonaparte encouraged the job of chief of staff to escape from the military and live in contemporary civilian offices How an obscure state department bureaucrat wrote the policy of containment that allowed the United States to win the Cold War with the Soviet Union How Dwight D. Eisenhower was started on the road to the presidency by a mentor he found in the Panamanian rain forest How Florence Nightingale gathered statistics during the Crimean War that helped lead to contemporary program evaluation.

Book Principles of Public Personnel Administration  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Principles of Public Personnel Administration Classic Reprint written by Arthur W. Procter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Public Personnel Administration The Institute for Government Research is an association of citizens for cooperating with public officials in the scientific study of government with a view to promoting efficiency and economy in its operations and advancing the science of administration. It aims to bring into existence such information and materials as will aid in the formation of public opinion and will assist officials, particularly those of the national government, in their efforts to put the public administration upon a more efficient basis. To this end, it seeks by the thorough-going study and examination of the best administrative practice, public and private, American and foreign, to formulate those principles which lie at the basis of all sound administration, and to determine their proper adaptation to the specific needs of our public administration. The accomplishment of specific reforms the Institute recognizes to be the task of those who are charged with the responsibility of legislation and administration; but it seeks to assist, by scientific study and research, in laying a solid foundation of information and experience upon which such reforms may be successfully built. While some of the Institute's studies find application only in the form of practical cooperation with the administrative officers directly concerned, many are of interest to other administrators and of general educational value. The results of such studies the Institute purposes to publish in such form as will insure for them the widest possible utilization.

Book Democracy  Bureaucracy  And The Study Of Administration

Download or read book Democracy Bureaucracy And The Study Of Administration written by Camilla Stivers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology addresses several of the most central ideas in the field of public administration. These ideas are as relevant to public budgeting as they are to performance measurement or human resource management. Collectively and individually the essays explore what Dwight Waldo referred to as the ?political theories? of public administration: issues that are ultimately unresolvable yet crucial to understanding the nature of public administrative practice. How can democracy and efficiency be balanced? Can there be a science of administration? How should we think about administrative accountability? What is the nature of the relationship between citizen and state? Is professionalism an adequate mechanism for ensuring accountability? How efficient can or should bureaucracy be? What is proper leadership by administrators hoping to address political democracy and managerial efficiency? This ASPA Classics Volumes serves to connect the practice of public policy and administration with the normative theory base that has accrued and the models for practice that may be deduced from this theory.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Administration of Public Education the United States The careful and scholarly study of the administration of education in the United States by my colleagues, Professors Dutton and Snedden, is a valuable and timely contribution to the literature of education. In a democratic State, it is of first importance that the relation of the State to the organs and agencies of culture and enlightenment be clearly defined and well understood. The wise and truly representative organization and administration of education is only a little less important than the organization and conduct of the edu cational process itself.
