International Public Administrations in Global Public Policy (eBook, PDF)

Sources and Effects of Bureaucratic Influence
Redaktion: Knill, Christoph; Steinebach, Yves

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the rise and agency of International Organizations (IOs) and their bureaucratic bodies- the International Public Administrations (IPAs)- as a reflection of an ongoing transfer of political authority and power from the domestic to the international level.

It shows that IPAs represent actors per se, with autonomy and resources that allow them to exert an independent influence on global policy-making processes and outputs. Providing a combination of novel conceptual lenses and research design to capture IPAs as an empirical phenomenon, the book takes an open, theoretically and methodologically diverse approach to show that IPAs are far from being negligible actors in global public policy and must be taken seriously as actors in policy-making beyond the nation-state.

This book will be of key interest to students, scholars, and practitioners in Public Policy and Public Administration, International Relations, International Political Economy, as well as Organizational Studies.

Rezensionen

"With their quest for new theoretical approaches to understand and explain the role and influence of IO bureaucracies in global policy beyond merely descriptive accounts, Christoph Knill, Yves Steinebach, and their colleagues take the study of International Public Administrations to the next level."

Fritz Sager, University of Bern, Switzerland



"This seminal new book is a landmark in our scholarly understanding of international bureaucracies. The authors provide the most comprehensive analysis to-date of how and why international public administrations matter and how they make a difference in their own right. The book will be useful for those professors and students across the social sciences who are interested in the interconnections of globalization and public administration."

Diane Stone, European University Institute, Italy
