These essays lead the reader to an understanding of the process of governance, integrating the concerns of scholars and practitioners. With an underlying appreciation for the late Charles Levine's unique vision of public administration, the authors discuss the conflict between the responsibility of the civil service to protect the public interest and the accountability of the civil service to higher legal authority.
