Sommario/riassunto

Challenging some of the established practices of public policy and administration, which have been called into question in recent years by the financial and banking crises of 2008, the authors specifically seek to investigate current public sector management and the public managers acting in the interests of civil society to get to the heart of best practice.

Sommario/riassunto

The 16 essays in this volume address the question of the role played by religion in the American Civil War. The authors show that religion, understood in its broadest context, as a culture and community of faith, was found wherever the war was found.
