Böcker i Transnational Administration and Global Policy-serien

This volume analyses the impact of globalization on civil service systems across the Middle East and North Africa. A collaboration between practitioners and academic public policy experts, it presents an analytical model to assess how globalization influences civil servants, illustrated by case studies of countries where there have been increased engagement with international actors. It demonstrates how this increased interaction has altered the position of civil servants and traces the shifting patterns of power and accountability between civil servants, politicians and other actors. It is an original and important addition to the debate about globalization's role in transnational public administration and governance.

Introducing the concept of 'knowledge alchemy' as the formulation of global standards through the use of indicators and algorithms, this book explores how the concept increasingly informs national and institutional policies and practices.

This illuminating book combines first-hand accounts of United Nations whistleblowers with academic reflections of their experiences. The lessons drawn from these transformative whistleblowing experiences and their analysis can be applied to all major organisations, especially to those operating under global and humanitarian governance structures.
