Creating A Government That Works Better And Costs Less: A Historical Analysis Of Civil Service Reform, James William Thomas

Theses Digitization Project

What this project endeavors to do is to take the complex issue of twenty-first century governmental administration and, through historic analysis using some of the classical and renowed literature of the past, paint a broad brush picture of where we are today, how we got here, and where we are going. This study includes an examination of the dominant ideologies of past reform eras.
