The Public Administration Theory Primer explores how the science and art of public administration is definable, describable, replicable, and cumulative. The authors survey a broad range of theories and analytical approaches—from public institutional theory to theories of governance—and consider which are the most promising, influential, and important for the field. This book paints a full picture of how these theories contribute to, and explain, what we know about public administration today. The third edition is fully revised and updated to reflect the latest developments and research in the field including more coverage of governments and governance, feminist theory, emotional labor theory, and grounded research methodology. Expanded chapter conclusions and a brand-new online supplement with sample comprehensive exam questions and summary tables make this an even more valuable resource for all public administration students Public Administration Smith Kevin B. ddc 0 0 ddc 0 351_730000000000000_FRE 0 5110 LPL LPL BK 2025-04-29 0 351.73 FRE 15319 2025-04-29 12:47:02 C.1 2025-04-29 BK 0 0 ddc 0 351_730000000000000_FRE 0 5165 LPL LPL BK 2025-04-29 0 351.73 FRE 15320 2025-04-29 12:47:02 C.2 2025-04-29 BK 4209 4209
