Even presidents and prime ministers do not have enough formal authority to control the myriad of practitioners, players, processes and policies involved in 21st century governance. In this book, the author demonstrates why political practitioners in campaign teams, parties, government departments and political offices need political management tools to utilise the resources they have available and overcome multiple obstacles that practical politics presents.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy offering a clear sense of what political management involves and providing the theoretical frameworks to be used in empirical research, this book will stimulate significant future study. It will be invaluable to practitioners, scholars and students in politics, government, policy, leadership, management, public administration, and political management.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jennifer Lees-Marshment\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367467062\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367467067\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/14\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 6.90w x 0.80d","brand":"Jennifer Lees-Marshment","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48136009974015,"sku":"9780367467067","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5144cbf0-ddb6-4536-ab7c-c629fc238eb9.jpg?v=1770159909","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/political-management-jennifer-lees-marshment-9780367467067","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
