This collection examines public administration through the relationship between scholarship and professional practice. Written in honour of John Wanna, it brings together studies of budgeting, performance management, cabinet government and the institutions through which public decisions are made and implemented.
Four sections cover financial management, Australian politics, public policy and administration, and engagement between researchers and practitioners. International comparisons include Australia, the Philippines, China and Hong Kong. Alongside the research chapters are personal reflections on Wanna’s career and appendices listing his publications and research students. The volume offers a varied account of how administrative ideas are developed, tested and adapted.
