"Public administration seeks to develop a comprehensive understanding of the internal structure and functioning of government, in all its complexity, and its interaction with society and its citizens. Public Administration: The Interdisciplinary Study of Government provides an account of the discipline, considering its history, growth, boundaries, and underlying assumptions. It tracks the emergence of the field against a background of the expanding conception of the state and the growth of public services, and situates it within the three branches of knowledge--natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. The book maps out the sources of knowledge of public administration, and how this is fragmented within the discipline's specializations, the social sciences, and government and society at large. It examines how leading authors map the discipline, the application of different theories, the associated schools of thought and intellectual debates, and the role of knowledge integration. Public administration has initiated much debate as to whether it should be treated as a science, a craft or profession, or an art. This book argues that to develop a comprehensive understanding of government and its complexity requires a truly interdisciplinary approach. Features: Explores and analyzes the history of public administration; Appeal in politics (public administration) and management (public management); Provides an epistemology for the study of public administration"

"Studi ini mencoba menjelaskan mengapa organisasi kehumasan pemerintah belum dapat berfungsi secara optimal untuk meningkatkan kepercayaan dan dukungan publik terhadap pemerintah. Bahkan, organisasi kehumasan pemerintah masih lekat dengan aktivitas kehumasan yang ‘itu-itu saja’, seperti juru foto, penyusun kliping, juru ketik berita dan pembuat stiker. Teori strukturasi digunakan peneliti untuk memberi gambaran secara mendalam bahwa pengulangan tindakan yang dilakukan oleh para agen di dalam organisasi berdasarkan struktur yang berlaku dapat melanggengkan struktur organisasi humas seperti yang terlihat saat ini. Hasil penelitian memperlihatkan bahwa terdapat multilevel strukturasi di dalam organisasi kehumasan dan para agen cenderung menggunakan aliran komunikasi organisasi tertutup ketika berinteraksi.

This study attempts to explain why the government public relations organizations have not been able to function optimally to increase public support and expectation on government performance. Moreover, government public relations organizations constantly ascribe to their routine activities such as a photographer, a journalist, typist, clip-based person and a sticker maker. Structuration theory is used in this research to provide a thick description that repetition of actions based on the existing structures implemented by agents inside the organization, will perpetuate organizational structure as it appears today. This study showed that there is multilevel structuration in government public relations and agents tend to communicate in a closed network when interacting to one another."
