Public Money & Management, 2008, vol. 28, issue 5, 275-282

Abstract: This article examines the multiple explanations for the succession of crises engulfing the Home Office during 2006 and 2007. Although some of the reasons related to characteristics and shortcomings of the institution itself malfunctions in contemporary UK governance also took their toll, raising fundamental questions to do with citizenship, the public domain and public policy processes.
