NEUSTADT (Polish, Prudnik), a town of Germany, in the Prussian province of Silesia, on the river Prudnik, 60 m.
The chief industries are tanning, dyeing and the manufacture of damask, linen, woollen stuffs, leather and beer.
In 1745, 1760 and 1779 engagements between the Austrians and Prussians took place near Neustadt, which on the last occasion was bombarded and set on fire.
Born in Philadelphia, Neustadt received an A.B. from UC Berkeley (1939), followed by an M.A. degree from Harvard in 1941.
It was at Columbia that Neustadt wrote Presidential Power (1960; a revised edition entitled Presidential Power and the Modern Presidents: The Politics of Leadership appeared in 1990), in which he examined the decision-making process at the highest levels of government.
Neustadt later founded the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard, where he taught for more than two decades, retiring in 1989.
