Federalist No. 51: Is the Past Relevant to Today's Collaborative Public Management? | ||
in Public Administration Review , Volume 71, Issue Supplement s1 , 2011 , s78–s82 | ||
Federalist No. 51 is another of the most recognizable and important of the Federalist Papers, famously arguing that one first must enable government to control the governed, and then oblige it to control itself. The authors suggest that part of this obligation involves effective collaboration within a system of separate powers. They then ask how this “collaboration imperative” can be exercised in today’s contentious political environment. | ||
