The Restorative Qualities of Citizenship
The starting point and center of the administrative art is the citizen being served. Even in democratic governments which are sensitive to currents of public opinion, however, this fact is often not sufficiently noted. The reason? Administrators and their critics tend to become too introverted and intent on minutiae. Management becomes a game, not a constant reaching out to human needs and their great diversity
Aspa at Fifty
The Changing Public Service
Had I been more prescient, I might have been an elder statesman of the American Society for Public Administration (ASPA) myself, because I was at the meetings in 1939 of the American Political Science Association at which the organization meetings took place. I also attended the meeting the second day. This I did to hear one of the distinguished seniors at that time, Charles Beard, who made a memorable address beginning with a booming Fellow trav…

Lawyers and Managers Look to the Future
Irrespective of the fortunes of national politics, the United States is obviously going to have a number of major problems to solve during the next few years. Among these, domestically, are the national debt, inflation, modernization of plant, foreign trade deficits, chronic unemployment, and distribution of the national income as business becomes increasingly automated. People cannot buy the products of efficient machines if they do not have job…
The Ombudsman and Public Administration
Centennials, Continuities, and Culture
1980 decade is one of numerous celebrations in public administration. Three 1983 landmarks are the Pendleton Act of 1883, setting up the personnel system for the government;' the 50th anniversary of the New Deal; and the birth of the Tennessee Valley Authority, one of the most innovative ideas to come out of the United States in a hundred years. Then, a little later in the decade, we celebrate the 100th anniversary of Woodrow Wilson's essay, The …

Revitalized Program Management
T he program manager, whether in industry or in government, is the production person who actually delivers goods and services to the consumer-voter. Macmahon and Millett wrote a good deal about him in Federal Administrators (1939) and so did Corson and Paul, more recently, in Men Near The Top (1966).' The so-called bureau chief or executive, as Wallace Sayre was fond of pointing out in his seminar appearances, is literally at the center of all th…
W. F. Willoughby and the Administrative Universal
Perhaps the outstanding feature of William Franklin Willoughby's contribution to American public administration was his systematic insistence that administration is a universal. As such it is as much applicable to the legislative and judicial realms as to the executive departments. No other scholar, to my knowledge, has staked out this position and developed it so rigorously as did Willoughby. I propose to explore the reasons for his taking such …

The Creative State
The creative state, about which I wrote in 1937, is one in which its citizens take a positive rather than a negative orientation toward the opportunities of representative government. Creativity is the use of imagination, insight, and synthesis to solve complex problems which defy solution if they are approached segmentally. Creativity is also innovative, a break with the bureaucratic past, as demonstrated by a number of writers in a number of fi…

Management in the USSR- Comparisons to the United States
O NE of the main conclusions we came to on the governors' trip to the USSR in the summer of 1959 was that Soviet Russia will soon become a powerful competitor of the West in world trade. She has the resources, a good deal of knowhow, and most important of all, her management methods, while still considerably behind those of the United States, have markedly improved in recent years. We were impressed with the caliber of executive personnel we foun…

The Study of Administration
It is now fifty years since Woodrow Wilson wrote his brilliant essay on public administration. It is a good essay to reread every so often; there is so much in it that sounds modern, so much that will hold permanently true. "It is getting to be harder to run a constitution than to frame one." Was this said only yesterday? No, Woodrow Wilson clearly saw the importance of governmental administration half a century ago. "Administration is the most o…
The Administrative Staff College
The most interesting educational experiment in the world today for the student of comparative administration and business and government is the Administrative Staff College at Henley-on-Thames, England. This College is pioneering the methods which, in any industrialized nation, are needed to restore the flexibility and initiative that must always accompany free enterprise. The College also provides a new approach to leadership training in that en…
Government Corporations; a Focus of Policy and Administration, I
The government corporation has become a familiar device of public administration all over the world; and yet in some countries, and especially in the United States, uncertainty as to its distinctive purpose and underlying principles seems to grow, rather than to diminish, as the public corporation becomes older and more extensively used. Lack of interest and research cannot be blamed, because in recent years the degree of concentration in this ar…

American Administrative Law in 1931
An analysis of administrative law cases which federal and state courts decided during 1931 reveals some exceptionally interesting problems and tendencies. These will be considered under the following main headings: (1) the separation of powers and administrative action, (2) principles regulating administrative determinations, (3) conclusiveness and appeal, (4) the law of officers, (5) the liability of officers, (6) community liability, and (7) th…

The Potential Incentives of Public Employment
Due to the necessities of post-war reconstruction, and owing also in no small part to the deflation of public confidence in the, private-initiative-in-industry presumption, it seems clear that greater nationalization and municipalization will occur in those countries where such a development is not already well-advanced. Where, as a result of revolution and dictatorship, extensive economic services are already publicly owned and operated, the pro…

Labor's Part in War and Reconstruction
Nothing is of greater importance to national defense than the morale of those who do the actual work, the men who pump the petroleum, roll the steel, build the ships and planes. An ounce more of spirit along the assembly line is worth more than a correspondingly higher percentage of armaments in a clash of troops. This is because modern wars are won by industrial strength, a fact that we are almost tired of hearing repeated, but the truth of whic…
Congress—Problem, Diagnosis, Proposals
The problem with which your Committee has been concerned since its appointment early in 1941 is the place of Congress in the American scheme of government under the emergency conditions of peace and war that have prevailed during the past decade. We have asked ourselves such questions as these: 1. What changes have taken place in the relations between Congress and the Executive? Why? Has there been in fact any surrender of power and responsibilit…
Administrative Standards for Improving Naturalization Procedure
Naturalization procedure is a complex process involving a dozen different steps from the time the alien enters the country until he finally receives his order of admission from the court. In recent months, considerable attention has been given it in the hope that part of the red tape and resulting delay may be obviated. Criticism of red tape and useless steps in the procedure has been widespread. As a student of the administrative process, I trie…
Bureaucracy Self-Examined
ly preconceived response designed to influence people for or against something. Despite the propagandist use to which the word is put, however, it seems the part of wisdom for public administrators to give it a technically defined and delimited connotation, because it is a central concept in their professional life and equipment. If we were to discard a word every time it is used for propagandist purposes, there would eventually be a poverty of p…
Government Corporations; A Focus of Policy and Administration, II
How to bring managerial independence and public accountability into a working accord, so that neither efficiency nor necessary controls will be neglected, is the fundamental problem arising out of the operation of government corporations. Having dealt with managerial independence in the first instalment of this article, we now are faced with the problem of explaining how such independence can be reconciled with the controls necessary to assure pu…

The Objectives of Governmental Reorganization
IT IS a fair question to ask whether all the attention that has been given to governmental reorganizations in recent years has been worth the time and effort. Reorganizations seem to come in waves, in cycles; in recent years the press has been full of reorganization talk, sometimes creating the illusion that reorganization is a kind of revivalism in governmental reform, fervid while it lasts, but short-lived. Too frequent surveys by outside exper…

Administrative Law and Bureaucracy
T HE relationship we are about to consider deals with matters of high policy arising on the borderline between business and government, and as such it deserves to be treated as objectively and as realistically as possible. Administrative law, now a large and important field of study, is best known for its concern with problems of public control, such as the regulation of labor relations or of electrical utilities. When the subject of public contr…
