PRE-ORDER NOW - Published: 01/06/2026

Originally published in 1969, this book discusses specific issues in the rise of a `constitutional bureaucracy' as a counter-part to constitutional monarchy. These issues, including patronage, ministerial power and responsibility and the `grey-eminence' myth are set against the relationship among legislation and administration, Treasury control and the relevance of public administration to our conception of public accountability and `representative bureaucracy.'
