Postmodern Public Administration: Toward DiscourseCharles J Fox and Hugh T Miller challenge current thinking about public policy and administration in the light of the postmodern condition.

The book also provides an invaluable, thorough and clear review of the doctrines and philosophies that have to date dominated the field. |
