These two landmark volumes - prepared by leading authorities in the
field - locate bureaucracy in its proper historical and theoretical
context. They demonstrate that far from being a spent force
bureaucratic organisations and processes are, and will continue to
be, of central importance in the new millennium. Volume I outlines
both the changing historical forms of bureaucracy and its operation
in contemporary political systems before moving on to examine the
detail of bureaucratic structures and processes. Volume II
discusses bureaucrats in action and the political dimensions of
bureaucratic power. In addition it explores the various critiques
of bureaucracy before analysing the recent agendas for bureaucratic
reform and the strengths and weaknesses of alternative structures.
These two authoritative volumes will be essential reading for
political scientists, historians, organisational and administrative
theorists and students of public sector management old and new.
