MCLEAN, Va., July 30, 2007 -- In its thirty-five year history, 'The Public Manager' has published more than 2,500 articles by leaders in public-sector management: senior federal managers, top state officials and city managers from across the country, academics from universities and think tanks, and directors of nonprofits. In recent years, the journal has broadened its focus to include writings from international public administrators, receiving contributions from countries as diverse as Turkey, Canada and Russia.

The complete archive of articles is now available online at http://www.thepublicmanager.org. All users may access the site's advanced search capability to find article abstracts, and journal subscribers have unlimited access to full-text PDF versions. The archive offers practitioners and academics a wealth of management tools, best practices and advice from their broadly experienced colleagues. From budgeting to ethics to emergency preparedness, each issue features a series of articles that address timely topics from differing perspectives.

"As a former U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer who served with my wife in Turkey in the mid-1960s, I'm excited to see a healthy number of grass-roots articles from a wide range of emerging democracies," said Warren Master, editor-in- chief. "These include case illustrations on curbing corruption in South Africa, citizen participation in Siberia, Web-based applications in Slovenia, municipal development in Romania, and many others. In addition to local practitioners and researchers, we're getting submissions from managers whose work takes them to these locations, including one from a husband-wife team who served as Project HOPE volunteers aiding tsunami victims."

The archive also serves as a resource for public administration and policy students interested in a comprehensive historical perspective of the field. Some of the field's most influential thinkers have authored original pieces for 'The Public Manager' -- including Charles Goodsell defending government from accusations of incompetence and Ronald Moe analyzing presidents who choose to leave the management of government to others.

'The Public Manager' offers readers practical solutions for emerging public administration and policy issues from experienced professionals. A forum for developing and disseminating best practices, it encourages continuing excellence in government and nonprofit organizations. 'The Public Manager' is a subsidiary of the nonprofit The Bureaucrat, Inc., and is sponsored by the LMI Research Institute.
