 | | This was changed by the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act of 1883 and today U.S. civil servants are appointed and recruited based on merit, although certain civil service positions, including some heads of diplomatic missions and executive agencies may also be filled by political appointees. | | | The archetypal senior British civil servant was famously caricatured in the 1970s and 80s BBC comedy Yes, Minister. | | | In the early 19th century it was based on the so-called spoils system, in which all bureaucrats were dependent on elected politicians. |

| | Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The federal bureaucracy in the years after the Civil War was generally undistinguished, because the system of selecting officials and supervising their work was irrational. | | | The Act was sponsored by Senator George H. Pendleton, Democrat of Ohio, and written by Dorman B. Eaton, a staunch opponent of the patronage system who was later first chairman of the United States Civil Service Commission. | | | This is where the Pendleton Civil Service Act of 1883 comes into play. |

| | In 1883, the year Congress passed the Civil Service Act, the New York State legislature adopted a similar bill, placing administrative employees of the state under the merit system. | | | The National Civil Service Reform League, established in 1881, shortly before Garfield's death, led the subsequent fight for congressional action. | | | The U.S. Constitution vests the president with extraordinary powers in the selection of executive department personnel, and George Washington set a precedent of appointing federal employees almost solely on the grounds of ability. |

| | The assassination of President Garfield in 1881 by a disappointed office seeker precipitated the passage of the Pendleton Act in 1883, reestablishing the Civil Service Commission after a nine-year lapse. | | | Appointive power is shared by the President, who appoints the heads of all government departments and may remove his appointees at will; by Congress, which controls its own employees; and by the Civil Service Commission and departmental-appointing officers, in whose charge are vacancies in the classified service. | | | Development of a professional civil service came several decades later in Great Britain and the United States. |
