Amtrak, the U.S. Postal Service, the Port Authority of New York and
New Jersey, the Chicago Housing Authority -- all are examples of a
controversial institution, the government corporation. This hybrid
organizational form incorporates the best features of public and
private management to accomplish tasks that are unsuited for
commercialization or ordinary public administration.
This comprehensive assessment of government corporations sets
aside ideological presuppositions to reexamine the record and
identify both the successes and failures of this unique
arrangement. By viewing public administration as an experiment, the
author challenges readers to think creatively about the government
corporation and ways to reinvent it, capitalizing on its strengths
and compensating for its shortcomings.
