Mapping organizational units in the state :  challenges and classifications 

 - Philadelphia :  Routledge,  aug. 2010 
<br/><br/> The article discusses possible answers on three key questions for attempts at mapping the pattern of state organizations:   1.What constitutes a state organization?  2.What constitutes one state organization?  3.What constitutes different types of state organizations?  The main focus is on structural relations within and between organizational units, but the article also draws upon other classifications of units from the academic literature in organization theory and public administration. As an illustration, the article also outlines how these questions have been handled in the development of the Norwegian State Administration Database
