The "Israeli History, Politics and Society" series comprises
multidisciplinary studies that range from elections and the Yom
Kippur war to the search for a true Israeli identity and the
various initiatives to foment or prevent the peace process. This
volume brings together a set of articles that try to estimate the
direction of developments in Israeli public administration: whether
ministries will remain under the ambit of the Weberian model,
follow the New Public Management model, or move towards a mix of
the two. Each essay focuses on a specific factor which may inhibit
reforms, such as the weakness of mechanisms for policy control,
monitoring and evaluation; lack of co-ordination between the
different ministries; lack of effective accountability mechanisms;
an administrative culture that is characterized by frequent
infringements of moral integrity; a high level of politicization;
and a Supreme Court which plays a paramount role by routinely
intervening in the practices of public administration as well as in
the business of other governmental and non-governmental
institutions. Each article probes how these distinctive features of
Israeli public administration reflect underlying traits of the
nation's history, culture and geography, and gauges the extent to
which formal structures provide an indication of how policy-making
and programme implementation really operate.
