In "Governing under Stress, " scholars from public administration and public policy analyze the fraught politics and complex implementation of ARRA. Their essays address vital issues of enduring significance such as government accountability, public perceptions of public sector success, strengths and weaknesses of different policy instruments, and the most pressing challenges confronting public policy and management in modern government.
