Description

An insightful comparative study of the challenges confronting Western governments in North America and abroad. Understanding the declining trust in Western governments is one thing; coming up with the right diagnosis another. Savoie suggests the political accountability and public nature of government operations shape the behaviour of civil servants, and policy makers have failed to see that efficacy in government is tied to well-performing institutions.
