Description

This authoritative text delivers extensive, well-documented comparative analysis examining the political and policy-making roles of public administration systems across diverse regions. The latest edition includes all-new coverage of public administration in Latin America and Africa, with particular focus on New Public Management reforms and their real-world impact. Readers will gain critical insights into how the European Union influences public policy and administration, alongside examination of bureaucratic structures and political dynamics in established democracies.
