Reinventing Rationality: The Role of Regulatory Analysis in the Federal Bureaucracy

Autor Thomas O. McGarity
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 noi 2005
In this book, Professor McGarity reveals the complex and problematic relationship between the 'regulatory reform' movements initiated in the early l970s and the United States' federal bureaucracy. Examining both the theory and application of 'regulatory reform' under the Reagan administration, the author succeeds in offering both a relevant analysis and critique of 'regulatory reform' and its implementation through bureaucratic channels. Using several case studies from the early Reagan years, this book describes the clash of regulatory cultures resulting from the President's attempt to incorporate 'regulatory analysis' into the bureaucratic decision-making process. Yet while McGarity recognizes the limitations of regulatory analysis, he concludes with suggestions for enhancing its effectiveness. This book could be used not only as a textbook for political science and government courses but also for graduate applications in public policy and public administration.

Recenzii

"It should be important background reading....has much to recommend it from an international, descriptive, and perhaps even prescriptive standpoint....well written and should be interesting background material on the current status of regulatory analysis in U.S. government." B. Dan Wood, source???
"Institutional economists, political scientists, and other policy researchers, advisors, and practitioners will likely find this book a worthy addition to their shelves and reading lists....McGarity's book is an important and valuable companion to the literature on regulation." Timothy J. Brennan, Journal of Economic Issues
"The book is well-written and insightful, based on interviews with agency officials and on documents and other scholarly sources. It will appeal to both scholars and practitioners (especially, policy makers and lawyers). Its subtle blending of these different perspectives makes us rethink our approach to regulatory reform and policy." Roy Shin, American Review of Public Administration
"...an exhaustive and generally well balanced treatment of regulatory analysis. The attention to actual case studies is exemplary....a solid work and a necessary read for those who are interested in understanding the decisionmaking process that is forging the social regulation emanating from the federal government." Bob Williams, Southern Economic Journal
