Allan Blakeney has been identified with Saskatchewan politics
and government for forty years as a public servant, cabinet
minister, premier, and leader of the opposition. A Rhodes scholar
with an intellectual's perspective on governing, Blakeney brings a
unique and valuable perspective to this study of political
management.
Presented in the form of a dialogue between the authors, the
book provides a thorough examination of the roles of politicians
and public servants and techniques of management in Westminster
systems. What emerges is a sophisticated philosophy of statecraft
that recognizes both politics and management, and underlines the
importance of balancing the two.
First published in 1992, Political Management in Canada is now
available in a revised and updated edition. A new appendix shows
how the book can complement the major political science and public
administration texts currently in use in Canada.
