System under Stress: The Challenge to 21st Century Governance

System under Stress: The Challenge to 21st Century Governance (Public Affairs and Policy Administration Series)

In System under Stress, The Challenge to 21st Century Democracy, Third Edition, Donald F. Kettl looks at the latest stress to hit the systemâ€”the financial crisis of 2008. In his brief, gripping narrative, Kettl assesses how well the U.S. political system responds under extraordinary pressureâ€”from 9/11, to Hurricane Katrina, to the Great Recessionâ€” and asks if the government is ready to face that next challenge. A well-known scholar, commentator, and writer in the areas of federalism and governance, Kettl asks the hard questions, makes a credible and persuasive argument, and crafts a readable case study that is fascinating and thought-provoking.
