The White House and the Blue House is an in-depth consideration of patterns of change in government in the United States and Korea. It is the first such detailed study and comparison between the two countries. The book is organized into three parts with two chapters on the United States and two chapters on Korea in each part. Part One deals with the politics and organization of administrative reform; Part Two deals with the processes and procedures of administrative reform; and Part Three deals with reform politics, deregulation and money. Each chapter is a consideration of a particular aspect of reform in either the United States or Korea, rather than an attempt to compare the two.
