摘要
This essay reviews and analyzes the literature on presidential appointments in light of the growing tendency of chief executives to use the methods associated with what is now known as the administrative presidency. It closes with a discussion of the normative issues raised by the existing appointment system, one that appears to generate incompetence, distrust, and delays in filling posts.
