Jong jun (185 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In this conceptual guided tour of contemporary public administration, Jong S. Jun challenges the limitations of the discipline which, he argues, make it inadequate for understanding today's complex human phenomena.

He also emphasizes the idea of democratic social construction to transcend the field's reliance on conventional pluralist politics. Jun stresses that public administrators and institutions must create opportunities for sharing and learning among organizational members and must facilitate interactive processes between public administrators and citizens so that the latter can voice their problems and opinions.

Jun and William B. Storm (published in 1974 by Scott, Foresman and Company), is an edited volume containing 42 articles that examine how shifting political, economic, social, and technological environments impact modern institutions. Core Challenges Identified in the Book. Rapid Environmental Change: Organizations face constant, turbulent shifts in their external environments that render traditional administrative frameworks obsolete. Outdated Management Philosophy: Traditional bureaucratic structures remain trapped in 20th-century rational behavior models, values, and rigid hierarchical assumptions. The Need for Structural Adaptability: Standardized, bureaucratic operations struggle to respond with the speed required to match modern societal transformations. Proposed Strategies. Administrative Reform: Organizations must redesign their internal processes, roles, and structural layouts to continuously mirror external changes. Modernized Behavioral Norms: Leadership and personnel need to break free from rigid, legacy decision-making patterns to adopt flexible, adaptive organizational behaviors. Continuous Systemic Evolution: The text argues that survival in a permanent 'age of change' requires treating transformation as an ongoing operational necessity rather than a one-time fix.". 1st ed?

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. This book explores the effects of global socio-economic forces on the domestic policies and administrative institutions of Japan and the United States, and it explains how these global factors have shifted power and authority downward from the national government to subnational governments. This major comparative study comprises ten pairs of essays written by leading Japanese and American scholars on parallel public policy issues, institutional patterns, and intergovernmental relations in Japan and the United States, all set in the context of globalization and its impact on decentralization in each country. The twenty contributors and the editors provide new insights into the domestic consequences of global interdependence by examining emerging strategies for dealing with environmental concerns, urban problems, infrastructure investments, financial policies, and human services issues.An important study of the changing global setting, "Globalization and Decentralization" emphasizes the innovative and adaptive roles played by Japanese and American state, provincial, regional, and local governments in responding to the dramatic economic and political power shifts created by the new world order. Explores the effects of global socio-economic forces on the domestic policies and administrative institutions of Japan and the United States.
