Changing Problems and Lines of Attack

This paper was written by public administration expert Luther Gulick, whose keynote address at the Tennessee Municipal League\u27s 9th annual convention included a proposal to establish a local government technical advisory service. Gulick\u27s proposal resonated with TML Herb Bingham, who carried it to the state legislature leading to the creation of MTAS. The full text of the document is housed in the MTAS library\u27s archives section. For more information, visit the MTAS library\u27s webpage. Preface: This is a strictly preliminary document. It is published for the 53rd Annual Meeting of the American Political Science Association in New York City, September 6, 1957, as part of the documentation for the panel discussion on Metropolitan Government, 1975: An Extrapolation of Trends. This paper grows out of the Government in Metropolitan Areas Project underwritten by the Edgar B. Stern Family Fund in August, 1955. Neither the Edgar B. Stern Family Fund, nor the Governmental Affairs Institute of Washington, D. C., nor the eminent social scientists associated with the project are however in any sense responsible for this document or for its sins of omission or commission. These are attributable solely to the author. In the nature of the case we shall be eager to have comments and suggestions, so that these may be drawn on as the Government in Metropolitan Areas Project is carried forward to completion

The compound machinery of government: The case of seconded officials in the European commission

This article explores the compound machinery of government. Attention is directed toward decision making within the core executive of the European Union - the European Commission. The article studies seconded national civil servants (SNEs) hired on short-term contracts. The analysis benefits from an original and rich body of surveys and interview data derived from current and former SNEs. The decision-making dynamics of SNEs are shown to contain a compound mix of departmental, epistemic, and supranational dynamics. This study clearly demonstrates that the socializing power of the Commission is conditional and only partly sustained when SNEs exit the Commission. Any long-lasting effect of socialization within European Union's executive machinery of government is largely absent. The compound decision-making dynamics of SNEs are explained by (1) the organizational affiliations of SNEs, (2) the formal organization of the Commission apparatus, and (3) only partly by processes of resocialization of SNEs within the Commission
