A volume in Research in Public Management Series Editor: Lawrence
R. Jones, Naval Postgraduate School Governing Fables: Learning from
Public Sector Narratives advocates the importance of narrative for
public servants, exemplifies it with a rigorously selected and
analyzed set of narratives, and imparts narrative skills
politicians and public servants need in their careers. Governing
Fables turns to narratology, the interdisciplinary study of
narrative, for a conceptual framework that is applied to a set of
narratives engaging life within public organizations, focusing on
works produced during the last twenty-five years in the US and UK.
The genres discussed include British government narratives inspired
by and reacting to Yes Minister, British appeasement narratives,
American political narratives, the Cuban Missile Crisis narrative,
jury decision-making narratives, and heroic teacher narratives. In
each genre lessons are presented regarding both effective
management and essential narrative skills. Governing Fables is
intended for public management and political science scholars and
practitioners interested in leadership and management, as well as
readers drawn to the political subject matter and to the genre of
political films, novels, and television series.
