Administrative history
Administrative history is a historiographic field which looks at the history of state administrations and bureaucracies. Originally considered a sub-field of Administrative Sciences that was intended to improve contemporary governance, administrative history has become an increasingly separate field.[1] Administrative historians study the changes in administrative ideologies and administrative law while also looking at civil servants and the relationship between government and society.[2] It is related to political and constitutional history. The discipline is most common in France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and Italy.[3]
