Abstract

Hamilton’s ideals of the accountable, energetic executive must be brought forward to the twenty-first century, tempered by the realpolitik of the unitary executive, and layered with the post-pandemic imperative of resilience. This chapter sums up and reflects on the dynamics of power that have coevolved with administrative capacity and what the recent executive initiatives and political developments imply for rebuilding efforts. A reconstitution of capacity in all its core dimensions is urgently needed. Beyond repairing the government’s human capital management capacity, building for resilient capacity involves revitalizing Congress, promoting administrative engagement, rethinking strategies for advocating reform, and renewing the democratic bargain that involves the public's sense of a shared fate with one another and with a capacitated government.
