Ministers, Minders and Mandarins brings together the leading
academics in this specialty to rigorously assess the impact and
consequences of political advisers in parliamentary democracies.
The ten contemporary and original case studies focus on issues of
tension, trust and tradition, and are written in an accessible and
engaging style. Using new empirical findings and theory from a
range of public policy canons, the authors analyze advisers'
functions, their differing levels of accountability and issues of
diversity between governments. Cases include research on the
tensions in the UK, the possible unease in Swedish government
offices and the role of trust in Greece. Established operations in
Australia, Canada, Ireland and New Zealand are compared to relative
latecomers to advisory roles, such as Germany, the Netherlands and
Denmark. A key comparative work in the field, this book encourages
further research into the varied roles of political advisers.
Offering an excellent introduction to the complex role political
advisers play, this book will be of great interest to upper
undergraduate and postgraduate students studying political science
and policy administration, as well as researchers and scholars in
public policy. Contributors include: A. Blick, P.M. Christiansen,
B. Connaughton J. Craft, C. Eichbaum, T. Gouglas, H. Houlberg
Salomonsen, T. Hustedt, M. Maley, P. Munk Christiansen, B.
Niklasson, P. Ohberg, R. Shaw, C. van den Berg
