The Transformational Bureaucracy

Pasquale De Marco

Beschreibung

In a world facing unprecedented challenges, from climate change to economic inequality, the need for effective and efficient government has never been greater. Yet, many bureaucracies are struggling to keep up with the demands of the 21st century. They are often seen as slow, unresponsive, and inefficient. They are also often unable to adapt to changing circumstances or to implement new ideas.

But there is a better way. Transformational bureaucracies are a new type of bureaucracy that is designed to be flexible, adaptive, and innovative. They are able to respond quickly to changing needs, and they are constantly looking for new and better ways to serve the public.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of transformational bureaucracies. It explores the key elements of these bureaucracies and shows how they are able to overcome the challenges that traditional bureaucracies face. It also provides real-world examples of transformational bureaucracies that are making a difference in the lives of their citizens.

Readers will learn about the role of leadership in transformational bureaucracies, the importance of engaging stakeholders, and the need for process improvement and innovation. They will also learn about the importance of performance measurement and accountability.

By the end of this book, readers will have a clear understanding of what transformational bureaucracies are and how they can be used to improve the performance of government. They will also be inspired by the stories of real-world bureaucracies that are making a difference in the lives of their citizens.

This book is essential reading for anyone who wants to understand the future of government. It is also a valuable resource for practitioners who are working to improve the performance of bureaucracies.

Cheka The: The History of the...

Editors Charles River

The KGB is one of the most famous abbreviations of the 20th century, and it has become synonymous with the shadowy and often violent actions of the Soviet Union’s secret police and internal security agencies. In fact, it is often used to refer to the Soviet state security agencies throughout its history, from the inception of the inception of the Cheka (Extraordinary Commission) in 1917 to the official elimination of the KGB in 1992. Whether it’s associated with the Russian Civil War’s excesses, Stalin’s purges, and even Vladimir Putin, the KGB has long been viewed as the West’s biggest bogeyman during the second half of the 20th century. 
	However, the KGB did not appear out of thin air. Naturally, the earliest Soviet leaders utilized intelligence agencies that collected information both abroad and within the Soviet Union, targeting foreign opponents and domestic opponents alike. Lenin did not imagine the scale of the opposition he would have to face after the revolution, and he quickly came to the conclusion that "a special system of organized violence" must be created to implement the dictatorship of the proletariat. 
	Thus, from nearly the beginning of the Bolshevik takeover of Russia, Lenin and his successors established and relied on a particularly ruthless agency: the All-Russian Extraordinary Commission for Combating Counter-Revolution and Sabotage, later abbreviated to the Extraordinary Commission. Known colloquially as the Cheka (Extraordinary Commission), it soon became as feared by non-socialists as the Tsar’s secret police had ever been. The main means approved by the Council of People's Commissars on December 20, 1917, which the Cheka had to use to fight the counter-revolution, were "seizure of property, resettlement, deprivation of cards, publication of lists of enemies of the people, etc."

Bearing Witness While Black -...

Allissa V. Richardson

Bearing Witness While Black tells the story of this century's most powerful Black social movement through the eyes of fifteen activists who documented it. At the height of the Black Lives Matter uprisings, African Americans filmed and tweeted evidence of fatal police encounters in dozens of US cities—using little more than the device in their pockets. Their urgent dispatches from the frontlines spurred a global debate on excessive police force, which claimed the lives of African American men, women, and children at disproportionate rates. 
 
 
 
This groundbreaking book reveals how the perfect storm of smartphones, social media, and social justice empowered Black activists to create their own news outlets, which continued a centuries-long, African American tradition of using the news to challenge racism. Bearing Witness While Black is the first book of its kind to identify three overlapping eras of domestic terror against African American people—slavery, lynching, and police brutality—and explain how storytellers during each period documented its atrocities through journalism. What results is a stunning genealogy—of how the slave narratives of the 1700s inspired the Abolitionist movement; how the black newspapers of the 1800s galvanized the anti-lynching and Civil Rights movements; and how the smartphones of today have powered the anti-police brutality movement.

The Shocking Truth about...

Zoey Fraisers

International aid has long been heralded as a solution to the world’s most pressing problems, from poverty and hunger to disease and disaster recovery. It is a system built on the idea that wealthier nations and organizations have the responsibility to assist those in need, providing the necessary resources to help vulnerable populations rise above their circumstances. With trillions of dollars allocated to aid efforts across the globe, it would seem that international aid is fulfilling its mission to promote global well-being. However, a closer examination reveals a far more complex, and often disheartening, reality.
While aid is essential in times of crisis, its long-term effects are often overlooked. Far too frequently, the aid process is tainted by inefficiencies, corruption, and political agendas, which hinder its effectiveness and frequently exacerbate the problems it seeks to solve. Donor countries may provide aid with specific political or economic interests in mind, making the assistance less about altruism and more about advancing a nation's own objectives. Likewise, organizations tasked with distributing aid can become bogged down by bureaucratic red tape, mismanagement, and a lack of accountability, leading to resources being squandered or diverted from the people who need them most.
The impact of international aid is not always as straightforward as it appears. While some projects undoubtedly achieve their goals, many others fail to deliver lasting results, leaving behind a trail of dependency rather than empowerment. Aid can often unintentionally disrupt local economies and social structures, creating reliance on external support rather than fostering self-sufficiency. In some cases, aid even perpetuates cycles of poverty by undermining local industries or creating a mindset of dependency that stifles innovation and growth.
