Essays collected here address central ideas in the field, issues that are unresolvable yet crucial to understanding the nature of public administrative practice. Essays were originally written between 1943 and 1998, and examine politics and administration, the study of administration, accountability and responsiveness, citizens and the administrative state, professionalism in public administration, bureaucracy, and leadership. Specific subjects include lessons from the Challenger tragedy, maximum feasible manipulation, a bureaucratic- centered image of governance, and the management of social transformation.

Publisher Summary 3
This anthology addresses several of the most central ideas in the field of public administration. These ideas are as relevant to public budgeting as they are to performance measurement or human resource management. Collectively and individually the essays explore what Dwight Waldo referred to as the “political theories” of public administration: issues that are ultimately unresolvable yet crucial to understanding the nature of public administrative practice. How can democracy and efficiency be balanced? Can there be a science of administration? How should we think about administrative accountability? What is the nature of the relationship between citizen and state? Is professionalism an adequate mechanism for ensuring accountability? How efficient can or should bureaucracy be? What is proper leadership by administrators hoping to address political democracy and managerial efficiency? This ASPA Classics Volumes serves to connect the practice of public policy and administration with the normative theory base that has accrued and the models for practice that may be deduced from this theory.
