Growth of British naval power during the 18th and 19th centuries was a result of changes in the political, constitutional and financial infrastructure of the British state. Taking these ideas further, this book examines the relationship of administrative culture to contemporary ideas of efficiency.
Recent work on the growth of British naval power during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries has emphasised developments in the political, constitutional and financial infrastructure of the British state. Naval Power and British Culture, 1760-1850 takes these considerations one step further, and examines the relationship of administrative culture within government bureaucracy to contemporary perceptions of efficiency in the period 1760-1850. By administrative culture is meant the ideas, attitudes, structures, practices and mores of public employees. Inevitably these changed over time and this shift is examined as the naval departments passed through times of crisis and peace.
