Summary:"This cutting-edge new casebook challenges the dominant White-centric narrative of public administration, offering a fresh array of perspectives, with the lofty aim of ending the marginalization of communities in public policy implementation. Contributors adopt a liberatory framework to examine street-level public administrators (e.g. teachers, security officers, policy analysts, human resource experts) most responsible for implementing public policy in the United States, including and amplifying previously unrecognized narratives on the front-lines of public administration. Case studies explore real-life public servants not traditionally heard from, offering counter narratives. Each chapter concludes with an empowerment exercise or assignment for faculty to adopt in their classroom. This edited volume, a first of its kind, is written by experts in public policy and administration, bringing together top and emerging scholars in one volume to amplify underrepresented voices in public administration and policy. Chapters are rooted in qualitative approaches and center the narratives of marginalized communities, including women, People of Color, and LGBTQIA+ public servants. Street-Level Public Servants offers a much-needed casebook for public administration and public policy courses in the twenty-first century."
