Public Administration in the Context of Global Governance (Hardcover)

The recent acceleration of global governance arrangements has created a new sphere of public administration beyond the nation-state, along with a new set of challenges for national and local governments. This innovative book explores the frontiers of knowledge at the intersection of public administration and international relations scholarship.Expert contributors from around the world provide an interdisciplinary perspective on a range of administrative issues related to international and transboundary organizations. The chapters combine conceptual approaches and empirical research to address questions of autonomy, legitimacy and influence, with a focus on significant global policy issues in health, the environment, science and technology, poverty and trade. This comprehensive approach illustrates the expansive contours of this burgeoning field and outlines vital implications for public administration theory, practice and teaching. This fascinating and timely book will be of great interest to scholars and students of public administration, global governance and international relations. Contributors: S. Ashley, O.G.
