Public management in an interconnected world : essays in the Minnowbrook tradition

This collection of essays seeks to improve decision-making among public administrators who operate organizations in an increasingly complex and interdependent world. Contributors with different expertise examine the theories and experience of public management in an effort to find ways to deal more effectively with the complex programmes, policies, and problems confronting academicians and professionals in all the social and behavioural sciences. This analysis builds upon the thinking of two Minnowbrook conferences that have studied basic theory and decision-making in public administration. An introduction looks back toward these conferences, and an epilogue looks ahead. The first part of the work finds a new multiversalist paradigm by studying the implications of interconnectedness for public managers. The second part of the book analyzes the reality and other challenges to the emergence of new public administration practice. Interconnectness, democracy, and epistemology is the subject of the third part of this study of major new directions in the field. A lengthy bibliography completes the overview that the book offers.
