Group Representation in Local Bureaucracies.

Schumaker, Paul D.; Billeaux, David M.

Administration and Society, v10 n3 p285-316 Nov 1978

Four propositions were developed as a result of an examination of why some active groups are better represented in local bureaucracies than are others. The areas the propositions are concerned with are organizational structure, behavior of the group, socioeconomic and racial composition of the group, and the underrepresentation of Blacks in local bureaucracies.
