The Progressive government movement reined in corporate trusts and
improved the lives of sweatshop workers. It created modern
government, from the Federal Reserve to the nation's budgetary and
civil service policies. Ask any American today and they will tell
you how our government has hit a wall with profound implications.
Trust in government is low, and the success of its programs.
Instead of a focus on governmental effectiveness, the movement
became known for governmental size. Both political parties
contributed to the decline of the Progressive ideal, helping feed
the gridlock and create a government that does not work the way
citizens deserve. Donald Kettl argues for a rebirth of the
Progressive spirit with a dedication to making the government work
better. He outlines the problems in today's government, including
political pressures, proxy tools, and capacity for management.
Government Reclaimed details the strategies, evidence and people
necessary to strengthen governmental effectiveness and shut down
the gridlock.
