Public administration is a vital function in virtually every country in the world. The new, third edition addresses both the bureaucracy involved in implementing government policy and the increasing role of outsiders, such as voluntary organizations and consultants, in the implementation of policy. It also examines the question of accountability and control, and considers the emphasis on the reliability and commitment of civil servants. This new edition has been fully revised and updated, with much of the book rewritten and a completely new chapter on the experience of Third World countries. It is aimed at undergraduate students of politics, comparative administration and public policy.
