This work examines the many corruption's of powerlessness associated with public and private bureaucracy and organizations. These may be, indeed, as dangerous or more dangerous than the excessive concentration of power at the top of organizations of which this study is concerned as well. It is the fundamental premise in this effort that organizations rooted in management practice which perpetuates human alienation and powerlessness cannot deliver the humane values with which they are entrusted and are expected to deliver to our society.

Public administration is responsible for a vast array of social, political, economic and military activities often characterized by contradictory missions; yet all have some apparent semblance of political legitimacy. Within the United States, at all levels of administrationÑlocal, state and national, as will as the plethora of independent regulatory agencies, independently elected officialsÑthere are wide gaps between the administrative mission and administrative practice. These gaps point up serious contradictions between values sought and services delivered. Thus, within the myriad responsibilities of public administration are many significant and unresolved ambiguities and conflicts, the resolution of which is also in the center of public administrative attention. This book examines these complexities and ambiguities.

From the elite group of superpowers to the horde of miniature nations, executive authority, both civil and military are the most compelling forces that shaped us historically and are shaping us tomorrow. In the United States the public servant has only recently acknowledged that the power to make the most significant public policy decisions has found its situs in the executive branch of government.
