"Ungoverning: The Attack on the Administrative State and the Politics of
Chaos

"In this unsettling book, Russell Muirhead and Nancy Rosenblum trace how
ungoverning--the deliberate effort to dismantle the capacity of
government to do its work--has become a malignant part of politics.
Democracy depends on a government that can govern, and that requires
what's called administration. The administrative state is made up of the
vast array of departments and agencies that conduct the essential
business of government, from national defense and disaster response to
implementing and enforcing public policies of every kind. Ungoverning
chronicles the reactionary movement that demands dismantling the
administrative state. The demand is not for goals that can be met with
policies or programs. When this demand is frustrated, as it must be, the
result is an invitation to violence. "
