This book was released on 2010-11-23 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every time control of the U.S. presidency is passed from one party to another, the entire top layer of the executive branch changes. Thousands of men and women take down their pictures, pack up their desks, and move back into private life, just as others dust off their pictures and move in. The U.S. stands alone in this respect. Nearly every other advanced democracy is managed-save for elected officials and a few top aides-by an elite cadre of top civil servants selected by highly competitive examinations. Hudleston and Boyer tell the story of U.S. efforts to develop higher civil service, beginning with the Eisenhower administration and culminating in the passage of the Civil Service Reform Act of 1978. Arguing that the highly-politicized U.S. system simply hasn't worked, they examine why and how reform efforts have failed and offer a series of recommendations for the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scholars of public administration, economics, and political science, most from the region but some from western Europe and the US, describe the emerging civil service systems in nine countries, revealing the patterns that are developing during transition. They apply the methodological framework developed by the Civil Service Research Consortium to each country, providing a high degree of coherence that facilitates comparative analysis. They consider such aspects as the history of the system, internal labor markets, public opinion, relations between politicians and administrators, and civil service reform and development. They also take into account outside factors such as the possibility of joining the European Union. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Book excerpt: Centralized civil service management models provide the best starting point for most developing countries because decentralized agency systems require technological and human resources beyond their capabilities. Some better-endowed countries could use certain agency-type features selectively, moving toward an agency system as their institutional capabilities increase.
