As governments attempt to focus more on service delivery, it has become apparent that little is known about the people who actually provide the services. Barbara Wake Carroll and David Siegel discuss structural issues and analyse the various administrative reforms developed in the last few years. They highlight field officers' perceptions of the problems in the system and suggest ways to improve field office-head office relations and the operation of field offices generally. The authors' analysis is based on more than two hundred interviews with federal and provincial civil servants in all ten provinces, in the smallest hamlets and largest cities across Canada. Using extensive "ations from these interviews, the authors allow public servants to tell their own stories and, in so doing, provide examples of the application of systematic qualitative research to Canadian political science. With its accessible style and emphasis on personal experience, Service in the Field will be of interest to students and scholars of public administration, political science, organization theory, and related disciplines in addition to people in government in both field and head offices.

"In Professionalism and Public Service, leading scholars in the field assess the state of public administration in Canada and move the discipline forward on both the professional and the academic level." "The contributors to this volume trace the evolution of public administration institutions, explore issues such as the protection and improvement of the public service, describe recent innovations in the area of service delivery, and assess how these developments have increased the legitimacy of public administration among citizens. The various chapters also study recent advances in teaching methods and examine the importance of ongoing learning and training within the public service, both for students as well as for public administration practitioners." "Written in honour of Kenneth Kernaghan, the groundbreaking scholar who played an important role in public administration in Canada, Professionalism and Public Service highlights some of his lasting contributions to the discipline. It is a history of the recent evolution of an essential part of Canadian governance and a fitting tribute to a distinguished scholar."--Jacket
