Synopsis

A collection of eight essays arguing that administration is indispensable to politics links history, current issues, and modern research into public decision making. Holden (government and foreign affairs, U. of Virginia) describes the three sources of power in public administration (information, money, and force) and the role of political dogmas as a control over conflicting pressures, analyzing traditional political theory, theories of organization, bureaucracy, and management. The ultimate goal of these essays is to convince the reader that no political system can be sustained when its administrative core collapses. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
