This comparative collection of original contributions examines the
role of political staff in executive government and the
consequences for policy-making and governance. The leading
contributors reveal that good governance is about governments
getting the advice that they need to hear as well as the advice
that they want to hear. They highlight the importance of ensuring
that the advice is appropriately responsive to the policy
priorities of the government of the day. In countries such as the
United States, and in some European democracies, political
appointments to senior administrative positions are not a new
development. However, in recent years a third element - the
political adviser - has also become a feature of policy-making and
political management in Westminster-styled systems. This
authoritative work seeks to illuminate the drivers behind the
advent of political staff in executive government, and the
consequences for policy-making and governance. This unique book
includes case studies from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the
Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Academics and postgraduates researching in public administration
and management as well as political science will find this book
invaluable. Policymakers in agencies responsible for public service
leadership will also find much to interest them in this important
book.
