ABSTRACT

Despite significant steps on the path of reform, public administration in the Arab world continues to face considerable obstacles. This study attempts to (1) describe major historical influences that gave current Arab administrative systems some of their key attributes; (2) define certain critical impediments of contemporary Arab bureaucracies that reduce the effectiveness of their performance (3) recognize contextual developments that require expansion and adaptation of current administrative knowledge, skills, and behavior; and, (4) suggest vital components of integrated strategies for future improvements of public management performance.
