Reflections on the Passing of Dwight Waldo
Refounding Democratic Public Administration
To Politicize is not to Control
One of the most significant problems of bureaucracy in a democratic polity is how to achieve a tolerable coexistence between political and managerial control. When these aspects of control get out of balance, certain pathologies occur. This paper seeks to draw lessons from a study of the Federal Emergency Management Agency that show that the politicization of the administrative mechanisms of government, in the name of controlling bureaucracy and …
Escalating in a Quagmire
On August 24, 1992, Hurricane Andrew slammed into southern Dade County, Florida. What followed was tragic, costly, and remarkable many respects. In this article, we focus on one multi-faceted aspect of Andrew's aftermath - the policy aspect, political and administrative. For this aspect was every bit as remarkable as all the others. The event threw a spotlight on a largely ignored policy subsystem - emergency management - and on the complicated a…

Farewell to Norton
I hope this feature of Administration & Society will not become routine. The world of academia has lost three of its "greats" in a brief span: Bill Siffin, Aaron Wildavsky, and now Norton Long

This may be somewhat of an overstatement but if accurate it should be sufficient to disturb all of us. Not only does Political Science in general ignore the impacts, even those subfields which occasionally examine them fail to relate them back to the policy-making process. Th…

The Political Economy of Public Organizations
The search for a theory of public administration often takes on aspects of a quest for Hold Grail or a hunt for mythical unicorn. Public administration theory has meant variously: a search for scientific principles; broad ruminations on what phenomena are included within the field; and general orientations of students of subject, both professional and academic.1 Seldom has theory referred to systematic, empirically based explanations of a phenome…

on television news that was apparently manifestation of calculated strategy on the part of the Nixon administration.' He referred to the TV news industry as a tiny and closed fraternity of privileged men and added darkly that no medium has more powerful influence over public opinion. Nowhere in our system are there fewer checks on vast power. He implied that TV news generates marches and demonstrations, and in effect erodes the political system.2…
Contrasting Institutions of Air Force Socialization
Two institutions of military socialization, Officers Training School (OTS) and Aviation Cadet Pre-Flight Training School (Pre-Flight), are compared. Light is shed on existing studies which fail to use indicators demarcating basic military subculture. The ACPFTS used harsh techniques to inculcate heroic values and eliminate the "unfit." The OTS uses low-key techniques to presocialize managerial values. The air force is pleased with OTS. It is now …
