Public administration ensures the development and delivery of the
essential public services required for sustaining modern
civilization. Covering areas from public safety and social welfare
to transportation and education, the services provided through the
public sector are inextricably part of our daily lives. However,
mandatory budgetary cuts in recent years have caused public
administrators to radically re-think how they govern in the modern
age. In this Very Short Introduction Stella Theodoulou and Ravi Roy
offer practical insight into the major challenges confronting the
public sector in the globalized era. Tackling some of the most
hotly debated issues of our time, including the privatization of
public services and government surveillance, they take the reader
on a global journey through history to examine the origins,
development, and continued evolution of public administration.
