About The Book:
Public Administration and Society by Richard C. Box offers a unique and insightful approach to public administration (PA) by providing students with a deep understanding of the social, political, and historical context in which public administration operates. The book combines the author's writing with seminal readings and documents that illuminate key issues in the field, offering a perspective on past and present challenges for public service professionals in democratic societies.
The book covers five important thematic areas: the debate on the size and scope of government from the Founding Era, the relationship of the community to the individual, public organizations and policy-making, values in public administration, and the practitioner's role in a democratic society. This edition includes five new readings and a completely revised section on public policy-making, as well as updates to the introductory essays based on feedback from instructors.
This book is essential for anyone studying or working in public administration, providing a broad perspective on the field and its relationship with democratic principles.
