New to the 6th edition: * More international case studies on North America, Western and Eastern European and Asian countries. * Discussion of how governments have been developing strategies to enhance co-ordination and coherence across their programmes. * Analysis of the use of performance management in public administration. * More tables, case studies and internet links. * Extensive revision and updating to take into account the wealth of new literature that has emerged in recent years, including a discussion of E-Governance and analysis of 'new public management'. Drawing on evidence from a wide variety of political systems, The Politics of Bureaucracy continues to be essential reading for all students of government, policy analysis, and politics and international relations.
