Active Duty : Public Administration as Democratic Statesmanship Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In Active Duty: Public Administration as Democratic Statesmanship, a distinguished group of contributors examines the role of the American civil service under the Constitution.

The common concern that unites the otherwise diverse approaches of the authors is the conception of public administration as a particular form of political activity.

The contributors relate administrative issues to the broader questions of political life, such as political judgment and responsibility, the Constitution and constitutionalism, and the promotion of human liberty and the common good.

They aim to encourage the administrator to become a democratic statesman.

Present and prospective American civil servants, as well as political scientists and political philosophers, will find this book of interest.
