摘要：This article shows that, in the health policy sector, an infrastructure of expertise external to the state has developed in the United States from the 1970s on, representing a reserve of health-care specialists in many ways comparable to a specialized, high-level civil service. Decision makers can delve into that pool of experts when looking for advice, or to find loyal and competent managers to fill administrative positions. By identifying this infrastructure as a peri-administration, this ar...

Building on theory from the democratization and democracy promotion literature, we ...

Based on a discourse analysis...
