| Summary: | From 'constructive contributors' to 'deviant destroyers', government guerrillas work clandestinely against the wishes of their superiors. These many public servants are dissatisfied with the actions of the organizations for which they work, but often choose not to go public with their concerns. In her second edition, Rosemary O'Leary shows that the majority of guerrilla government cases are the manifestation of inevitable tensions between bureaucracy and democracy, which yield immense ethical and organizational challenges that all public managers must learn to navigate. Alongside updates to her original cases, O'Leary offers a new case on Private Bradley Manning and the WikiLeaks scandal, as well as new mini-stories for her interlude sections. |
