Principles and Practices of Public Administration

Public Administration is the development, implementation and study of branches of government policy linked to pursuing the public good by enhancing civil society and social justice. In the past public administration was synonymous to government management. However, with increased vigor in participation of private sector into public matters some NGOs committed to serve the public have joined the public sector. Public administration has gained credibility over time owing to changes in governance and management process. Moreover, due to the sensitivity of the activities carried out by public administrators and the participation of private sector change in quality of the services offered by the government became inevitable. This book provides deep insight into various dimensions of issues relating to the subject.
