The data used are taken from a broad survey of elites conducted in 2000, focusing on undersecretaries of state, secretary generals and director generals in the ministries. The analysis reveals that political and administrative leaders are regarded as the most influential actors on salient policy issues. They are engaged in extensive and intensive inter-and intra-organizational contact networks. Their influence varies according to a political - administrative contact pattern, internal administrative structure  and external media exposure. - Reproduced.  aCivil service  aLoegreid, Per  aInternational Review of Administrative Sciences  a58949  c58949d58949  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 69, Issue no: 3pAR59394r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
