Sound machinery of government is at the core of a well-functioning
state. Written by an author with wide experience in public
administration globally, this book addresses both the commonalities
and the diversity of administrative practice around the world.
Exploring developed countries as well as developing and
transitional economies, it combines a strong conceptual foundation
with thorough coverage of the main topics in public administration,
supported by current data and a wealth of concrete illustrations
from a variety of countries. The book is organized around three
important themes: the interaction of governance, politics and
administration, the role of institutions in determining
administrative outcomes, and the importance of country context. A
concluding chapter summarizes the lessons of international
experience and offers guidance to improve the management of the
public sector in sustainable ways. Running the Government will
serve as a core text for courses in public administration and as a
supplement for undergraduate and graduate courses in political
science, public economics, and international affairs. It may also
serve as an accessible and complete reference for civil service
training courses around the globe.
