Essays on theory building and empirical theory testing in the study
of bureaucracy and public policy Politics, Policy, and
Organizations bridges the gap between studies of public
administration and the broader field of political science by
highlighting the vital role that bureaucracies play in shaping
public policy. With this landmark volume, leading scholars develop
a new organizations approach to the study of public bureaucracy,
linking bureaucratic choice to public policy-making through
scientific inquiry. Politics, Policy, and Organizations goes beyond
the traditional, passive view of administrative agencies to
describe the vital role of bureaucratic organizations in a
functioning democracy. By placing the agencies front and center,
the authors make a powerful case that bureaucracy is really a
fourth branch of government - albeit one that generally goes
unnoticed except in times of emergency or deep national division.
This groundbreaking work provides a new and more accurate guide to
the interactions of bureaucracies with other political institutions
and the public at large. This work is essential for students and
scholars in the field of public policy and public administration.
