Founding Republics in France and America: A Study Constitutional Governance
ISBN: 9780700607341 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Recalling Tocqueville's exhortation for the French to "look to America" for a better understanding of their own government, John Rohr returns the favor by revealing how much we can learn about American constitutionalism from a close study of French governance. The French and American republics both emerged from the same revolutionary era and share a common commitment to separation of powers, rule of law, and republicanism. Even so, the two constitutional traditions are quite different. France, after all, has replaced its constitution at least thirteen times since 1789, while the American...

Civil Servants and Their Constitutions
ISBN: 9780700611638 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Public administration as an American profession originated in the early twentieth century with urban reformers advocating the application of scientific and business practices to rehabilitate corrupt city governments. That approach transformed governance in the United States but also guaranteed recurrent debate over the proper role of public administrators, who must balance the often contradictory demands of efficiency and politically defined notions of the public good. Currently the business approach holds sway. Legitimated by Al Gore's National Performance Review, the New Public Management...

To Run a Constitution
ISBN: 9780700603015 / Angielski / Miękka / 1986 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In 1887, the centennial year of the American Constitution, Woodrow Wilson wrote that "it is getting to be harder to run a constitution than to frame one."

Wilson and his fellow civil-service reformers had a profound influence on the development of American administrative institutions. Unfortunately, the reformers paid more attention to the exigencies of running a constitution than to the Constitution itself. They and their...

The conventional model for explaining the uniqueness of American democracy is its division between executive, legislative, and judicial functions. It was the great contribution of Frank J. Goodnow to codify a less obvious, but no less profound, element: the distinction between politics and policies, principles and operations. He showed how the United States went beyond a nation based on government by gentlemen and then one based on the spoils system brought about by the Jacksonian revolt against the Eastern Establishment into a government that separated political offi cials from civil...
