Thank You and Welcome Aboard! 5

As is customary at the transition between

volumes, we would like to once again

acknowledge a number of contributors

for their past and future service. Without their

generous contributions of time and talent, Public

Administration Review could not achieve its quest for

excellence in scientific discovery or practice.

comes a new group of renowned scholars and

practitioners eager to leave their mark on the

discipline over the next three years. We welcome 28

new editorial board members for the term extending

their participation, and welcome their insight and
