Elgar Advanced Introductions are stimulating and thoughtful
introductions to major fields in the social sciences and law,
expertly written by the world's leading scholars. Designed to be
accessible yet rigorous, they offer concise and lucid surveys of
the substantive and policy issues associated with discrete subject
areas.In this Advanced Introduction, Christopher Pollitt starts a
penetrating account of the theories, methods and possible
trajectories of the study of public management, also examining the
academic community itself, and its relationship to the world of
practice. There is no more authoritative - or lively - text of such
scope and focus. This is a stimulating analysis by a leading
international scholar. It includes: - a global overview - a
critical and authoritative analysis of the current state of the
field - the location of academic research firmly in the real world
context of austerity, climate and demographic change, and
technological transformation - an examination of the relationship
between academic study and the practice of public management - a
look inside the ivory tower , at the forces changing the way the
subject is studied and practised This truly unique work will be of
particular interest to graduate students, advanced scholars,
lecturers and trainers in public administration, public management,
government, public policy, political science and development
administration. Middle level and senior practitioners in public
administration and public management will also find this an
invaluable and sophisticated introduction.
