FOR AN OUTSTANDING BOOK ON PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION 1969-2002 |
HART SENATE OFFICE BUILDING, WASHINGTON D.C. |
The National Academy of Public Administration recognizes outstanding
contributions to the literature of public administration through presentation
of the Louis Brownlow Book Award. The award is for an outstanding example
of a literary work that provides new insights, fresh analysis, and original
ideas on a significant development, a government agency's performance,
or another public administration or public policy topic. The award is the
namesake of distinguished administrator Louis Brownlow, who, during the
Roosevelt era, chaired the Presidential Committee on Administrative Management,
which strongly advocated strengthening the presidency and executive branch
organizations to provide sufficient support for executive initiatives.
