The Limits of Administration: A Response to Christopher Hood
The development of states coincides with the continuous (re)definition of administrative limits, according to Kutsal Yesilkagit, in this response to Christopher Hood. Hood’s thought-provoking essay suggests putting the concept of administrative limits to greater use as an analytical concept and explores the idea of administrative limits from three basic ways of thinking: cybernetics, economics and cultural theory. This author critically analyzes one of Hood’s main conclusions—that different types of administrative limits may exist, and that “what kinds of limits we find where is likely to remain a central and contested issue in administrative analysis.”
