Congratulations to Daniel Fiorino, who yesterday received the Louis Brownlow Award for his book The New Environmental Regulation. The Brownlow Award, described as the “top literary prize in public administration", is given annually by the National Academy of Public Administration (NAPA). The award is for an "outstanding example of a literary work that provides new insights, fresh analysis, and original ideas on a significant development, a government agency's performance, or another public administration or public policy topic." The award is the namesake of distinguished administrator Louis Brownlow, who, during the Roosevelt era, chaired the Presidential Committee on Administrative Management, which strongly advocated strengthening the presidency and executive branch organizations to provide sufficient support for executive initiatives.
