About this book series

This series explores the values and ideals that ground a society at large and the nature of the various relations between society and government. Organised around three overarching themes – Great Thinkers about Government’s Role and Position in Society, Foundations of Public Administration: Approaches to Studying Government, and Foundations of Government: Core Concepts and Ideas – the series will analyse government at its constitutional and foundational level. Such an approach is not yet mainstream, with public administration scholars more commonly focusing on the specific challenges, methods, skills, policies, and organizational structures of government’s operations. This series will address that trend by providing a conceptual map of these fundamentals and making new knowledge and approaches relevant for understanding government accessible to readers by helping them to grasp their origins, meaning and relevance.
