Making Government Manageable: Executive Organization
and Management in the Twenty-First Century
By Benjamin Ginsberg and Thomas H. Stanton
Like other organizations, federal government agencies
can be effective only if they are effectively managed. Yet
management is often not considered a top priority within
the government. In a new book, Making Government
Manageable: Executive Organization and Management in the
Twenty-First Century, Johns Hopkins
political scientist Benjamin
Ginsberg and Washington, D.C., attorney Thomas H. Stanton
assemble a distinguished group of authorities from the
academic and political worlds to explore how the federal
government is organized and managed, and how it might be
improved through better management and reorganization.
Also discussed are the roles of private- sector
contractors and recent success stories. Among the
contributors are Hopkins faculty members Matt Crenson, Dan
Guttman, Ronald C. Moe and Barbara Wamsley.
The book is now available from the JHU Press in both
hardcover and paperback editions. (May, 320 pages,
$45/$18.95)
