Theories and stories in African public administration
The study of public administration and public management is a field of scholarship
that requires a firm embeddeness in the society it serves. After all, public
administration scholarship is practical by nature. It provides practical tools and
concepts for public managers and public leaders. These tools and concepts are
derived from the study of administrative practices in that society.
Universities, such as Mzumbe University (Tanzania) play an important role in
developing tools and concepts and translating them for application in the day-today
situations of the specific administration of their country and their continent.
The series African Pubic Administration and Management, founded by the University
of Groningen and the African Studies Centre in Leiden, is an important
instrument in fulfilling this promise for the African continent in general and Tanzania
in particular. The aim of this series is to record the research of Tanzanian
scholars in African public administration and public management and to distribute
its results amongst all that are interested in what public administration and
public management looks like in this African country.
To ensure the academic quality, the publications in this series are subject to a
peer review by scholars affiliated with the University of Groningen. The publication
of this series is made possible by funding from the Netherlands Organisation
for International Cooperation in Higher Education, Nuffic
