Governance in the Twenty-first Century : Revitalizing the Public Service Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In Governance in the Twenty-first Century Canadian and international experts recognize both the difficulty of making predictions and the need to consider the future in order to prepare the public sector for new challenges.

The authors' predictions and recommendations are anchored in a thorough understanding of contemporary public administration.

They point out that not only have previous reforms made yet more change necessary and inevitable but that the purpose of these reforms is to attempt to return government to the position of respect and competence it enjoyed in the past.
