Course Information

Section Id	: DM610
Name	: Administrative Theory
Program	: Public Services
Program Detail	: This course covers the major administrative theories that drive macro-level public behavior. It will begin with a consideration of the broad significance of the study of public organizations for individuals in modern society. It will then examine how theorists and practitioners have sought to develop more formal perspectives on public management. It will not merely present an historical overview of the development of administrative theory, but rather it will examine those ideas that are of greatest relevance to the construction of an integrated theory of public organizations. The progression of the course follows the evolution of administrative theory from the pioneering work of Weber, Taylor and Woodrow Wilson to current theories regarding the ?New Public Management.? It will discuss the ?dichotomies? of public administration, i.e., public versus private, policy (or politics) versus administration and fact versus value.
