Beschreibung:
Extensively updated to reflect recent research and new theoretical literature, this much-anticipated Second Edition applies a gender lens to the field of public administration, looking at issues of status, power, leadership, legitimacy and change. The author examines the extent of women's historical progress as public employees, their current status in federal, state, and local governments, the peculiar nature of the organizational reality they experience, and women's place in society at large as it is shaped by government. New to this edition are: incorporation of data, research studies and theoretical literature from the last 10 years; increased focus on gender images and how they work against women and men; and expanded coverage of nonprofit management.
