‘The Routledge Handbook of Global Public Policy and Administration, edited by Thomas Klassen, TJ Lah and Denita Cepiku, is international in scope, with contributions by experts from across the globe, and comprehensive and up-to-date in its coverage of the field. It is particularly remarkable for its coherence. The volume is organized around the topic of governance and reflects a common understanding of the role of government in capitalist societies, keeping the economy running smoothly and sustainably and regulating it to promote the general welfare.’ — Fred Thompson, Professor, Atkinson Graduate School of Management, Willamette University, U.S.A.‘This handbook provides a very useful guide to both perennial dilemmas in public policy and public administration such as corruption and procurement as well as cutting-edge issues such as e-government and terrorism. It is particularly notable for its clear writing and its emphasis on perspectives from outside North America. Scholars and students from all regions can learn much from its excellent team of authors.’ —Kent Weaver, Distinguished Professor of Public Policy, Georgetown University, U.S.A.
