12. THREE EXPLANATIONS OF PUBLIC
ADMINISTRATION
1. Public administration as an academic discipline, a
science
2. Public administration as a profession
3. Public administration as an art
13. PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS AN ACADEMIC
DISCIPLINE
THE EUROPEAN ROOTS OF THE SCIENCE:
CAMERALISM
In 1727, Friedrich Wilhelm I, decreed that a chair for
“Oeconomie, Policey und Kammer-Sachen” (Cameral
Sciences) be established at the University of Halle, in
Prusia.
This marked the beginning of the academic development
of cameralism as sciences to be taught to future state
officials.
14. PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS AN ACADEMIC
DISCIPLINE
THE AMERICAN ROOTS
OF THE SCIENCE:
WOODROW WILSON
Woodrow Wilson, “The Study
of Administration”, Political
Science Quarterly, 1887.
Public administration became
to be seen as an independent
academic discipline, apart from
political science after Wilson.
15. PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS AN ACADEMIC
DISCIPLINE
WHAT DID WILSON SAY?-SCIENCE OF
ADMINISTRATION
Enlargement of the roles and organization of government,
and complexity of administration and public services
engendered the need for a science of administration in
the U.S.A.
American writers had not taken an important part in the
advancement of this science. It was developed by French
and German professors. But it must be adapted to federal
government and other decentralized forms of government.
16. PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS AN ACADEMIC
DISCIPLINE
WHAT DID WILSON SAY?-POLITICS-
ADMINISTRATION DICHOTOMY
The field of administration is a field of business. It is
removed from the hurry and strife of politics; it at
most points stands apart even from the debatable
ground of constitutional study.
Administrative questions are not political questions.
Public administration is detailed and systematic
application of law. Every particular application of law
is an act of administration.
17. PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS A PROFESSION
The word profession means an occupation that includes a
systematic knowledge or theory.
Main elements of a profession is knowledge and
competency.
Universities and professional schools have played a vital
role for public administration to become a profession.
People get the necessary knowledge in universities to
become a civil servant, socializing with professional norms
and in one sense improve a professional identity.
Specialists of public administration use these
professional information to serve citizens in an impartial
and competent manner.
18. PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS AN ART
Public administration is an art of getting things done,
as well.
Administration as an art, consists of deeds and acts
with a practical end.
Like all arts, it must be based on science, that is a
knowledge of all that will make for good
administration.
19. PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS AN ART
For example, a painter, to be a
greater artist must know the
laws of composition, of the
harmony of colors and of
perspective.
So the successful administrator
must possess knowledge of
political economy, some
knowledge of psychology, of
general principles of
government.
20. SCOPE OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS AN
ACTIVITY
Traditionally, the scope of public administration is
restricted only to the executive branch.
In this sense, public administration covers primarily
the organization, personnel, practices and procedures
essential to effective performance of the executive
branch of government.
Public administration is an instrument of government
for carrying on its activities. It includes all operations
of government ranging from the social care to
sweeping the streets.
21. SCOPE OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION AS A
DISCIPLINE
Administrative functions/Processes of administration
POSDCORB (Planning, Organizing, Staffing, Direction,
Coordinating, Reporting, Budgeting
Substantive concerns (matters of administration) such as
defense, health care, education, social security and welfare,
police, fire protection, agriculture, industry and so on.
Public personnel administration
Public financial administration
Comparative public administration
Public policy (the process of policy-making, the contents of
policy, its implementation and the policy outputs.
22. PUBLIC AND PRIVATE ADMINISTRATION
As a co-operative group activity, administration is truly
universal and operates in all types of public and private
organizations, and also non-governmental organizations.
But on the basis of the nature of institutional setting, public
administration can be roughly distinguished from private
administration.
Public administration is governmental administration
concerned with achieving state purposes.
Private administration relates to administration of
private/business organizations which are more concerned
with the achieving of its own purposes.
23. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
ADMINISTRATION
Political direction
Public administration takes place in a political context,
work under political direction and scrutiny. It carries
out the policies made by the elected members of the
legislature and political executive (prime minister,
ministers).
Business administration, on the contrary, is not subject
to political direction, instead, it functions largely under
the influence of market economic conditions.
24. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
ADMINISTRATION
Absence of profit motive
The primary purpose of governmental organizations is
to provide services to the people and promote social
good, not making profits for the government.
Government usually has to provide even unprofitable
and costly services. The major aim of private business
organizations is o make profits for their owners.
The main beneficiary of public administration activities
is the entire community (communal ends), whereas
that of the business is the owner of the business itself
(personnel ends).
25. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
ADMINISTRATION
Legal framework
The activities of public administrators are fixed by a set
of constitutional practices, laws, rules and regulations.
Government officials must always act within their legal
powers.
By contrast, the behavior of business organizations and
the activities of business administrators are subject to
less legal constraints.
26. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
ADMINISTRATION
Equity and justice
The government official is required by law to maintain
a high degree of consistency in his dealings with the
public. He has to observe the principles of equity and
fairness of treatment in serving the people.
On the other hand, the business administrator is not
legally obliged to treat the small and big customers
alike.
27. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
ADMINISTRATION
General responsibility
In a democracy, public administration is held
accountable for its activities through legislative
oversight and judicial review. (and in modern approach
directly to the public)
But public accountability is not a value affecting
business administration. Business administrators are
only accountably for their shareholders.
28. SIMILIRATIES BETWEEN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
ADMINISTRATION
Both public and business administrators rely on common
techniques relating to planning, organizing, budgeting,
control, coordinating and like. Both make use of common
skills such as accounts-keeping and maintaining files.
On the one hand the business organizations developed a
sense of community service (social responsibility
approach), and on the other hand, public organizations try
to adapt business methods and practices such as
performance management, strategic planning and human
relations into public administration
