Civil Service Systems in Western Europe presents a comprehensive
overview of the important issues in modern bureaucracies and
provides a comparative analysis of the civil service systems of
nine Western European nations. In each chapter expert contributors
examine a country specific case study and employ a
neo-institutional framework, combined with extensive empirical
research, to emphasise the specific nature and development of civil
service systems, paying special attention to the current features
of each country's civil service.The authors focus initially on the
structural dimensions of civil service systems, which are explored
through themes such as internal labour markets and reform and
diffusion. The interface between civil service systems and their
political and social environment is studied by analysing issues
such as representativeness, politicisation and public opinion,
whilst the dynamic nature of civil service systems is emphasised by
examining their historical development. The authors conclude by
comparing the civil service systems discussed in the book,
attempting to find parallels and variations between them and
proposing possible explanations for the development of these
similarities and differences. This comprehensive book will prove
popular with scholars and students of public administration,
political science and international affairs as well as civil
servants, politicians and policymakers.
