Description: "The field of public administration currently lacks sufficient resources for understanding the rationale, implications, and inherent practices of reforming government administration around the world. The Handbook of Administrative Reform satisfies this need by bringing together diverse international experts to analyze the sensible processes and intervention strategies central to administrative reform in nine nations geographically located in North America, Europe, and Latin America" "A comprehensive source of updated information, this seminal volume offers a comparison of global efforts that provides a unique, practical perspective on public administration reform and enhances understanding of reform methods in a wide range of cultural settings and political and social contexts."--book jacket.
