What issues molded their reactions? What motivates civil servants in general? How should they be managed and how do they affect federal policies? To answer these questions, Marissa Martino Golden offers us a glimpse into the world of our federal agencies. What Motivates Bureaucrats? tells the story of a group of upper-level career civil servants in the Reagan administration at the Environmental Protection Agency, the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division, the Food and Nutrition Service, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The book reveals that most career civil servants were usually responsive to executive direction-even with a president attempting to turn agency policy 180 degrees from its past orientation.By delving deeply into the particular details of Reagan's intervention into the affairs of upper-level career civil servants, Golden also fulfills her broader mission of improving our understanding of bureaucratic behavior in general, explaining why the bureaucracy is controllable and highlighting the limits of that control. 410 0$aPower, conflict, and democracy. 606 $aGovernment executives$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1981-1989 615 0$aGovernment executives 676 $a352.2/93/097309048 700 $aGolden$b Marissa Martino$01041833 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aE-BOOK 912 $a9910463400003321 996 $aWhat motivates bureaucrats$92465624 997 $aUNINA
