The fundamental issue in the controversy over White House efforts
to assume more complete control over the federal regulatory
bureaucracy is that of administrative accountability in a
democratic political system. This work examines the nature and
consequences of the shift from political to administrative policy
making, with illustrations from the records of the Nixon, Ford,
Carter, and Reagan administrations. Ball concludes that all four
presidents, despite stylistic differences, viewed regulatory
control problems in strikingly similar terms, attempting to oversee
federal agency activity through personnel control, deregulation,
reorganization efforts, and centralized review.
