Responsibility or Ethics" Please respond to the following: In a 1996 article entitled “Toward a Theory of the Ethics of Bureaucratic Organizations, Allen Buchanan argues that “bureaucratic organizations” should be seen as “complex webs of principal/agent relationships. So an adequate theory of ethics for bureaucratic organizations would centre on the reductions of agency risks. Buchanan lists the following as typical risks faced by bureaucratic organizations: Outright misappropriation of resource, goal substitution (cases where bureaucrats covertly pursue their own goals…under the guise of implementing authorized policies), passive opposition to policies, shirking (substituting leisure or the pursuit of other unauthorized activities for compensated work times), and expertise imperialism (e.g., treating ethical problems as if they were simply economical issues). In your view, should leaders in the public service pursue the “greatest good for the greatest number,” or follow a set of moral rules when they make decisions involving difficult ethical issues? Explain. You may identify current events/situations relevant to any particular aspect of ethical behavior in public administration. .

A General Framework For The Ethics Of Public Administration
This document provides an introduction to developing a framework for ethics in public administration. It notes that while business ethics is a well-developed field, ethics for civil servants has received less attention. It aims to address this gap by outlining some key differences between business and government that complicate developing universal ethical guidelines for civil servants. These include differences between political systems, the wide variety of government departments and roles, and the civil service's traditional reliance on internal culture rather than formal ethics education. The document seeks to clarify civil servants' core obligations and how they should resolve conflicts between serving elected officials, the public, and professional norms.

ABSTRACT. The field of business ethics has been active
for several decades, but it has yet to develop a generally
agreed upon applied ethical perspective for the discipline.
Academics in business disciplines have developed useful
science-based models explaining why business people
behave ethically but without a generally accepted defi-
nition of ethical behavior. Academics in moral philosophy
have attempted to formulate what they believe ethical
behavior is, but many seem to ignore or reject the basic
mission of business. The purpose of this article is to offer
one view of ethics in business that accommodates the
mission of business. This purpose is achieved by
reviewing the mission of ethics in applied disciplines like
business and melding it into the mission of business in
capitalistic societies.
KEY WORDS: business ethics, business mission, ethics,
exchange of values, mission of ethics
The field of business ethics has been active for
several decades, but it has yet to develop a generally
agreed upon body of knowledge or an applied eth-
ical perspective for the discipline. What exists are
valuable contributions from business academics
focusing on the science of ethical performance and
valuable contributions from philosophers focusing
on moral philosophy without a true nexus between
the two. Academics in business disciplines have
developed useful science-based models of how and
why business people behave ethically or unethically
using personally perceived views of what the con-
cept ‘‘ethical’’ means (e.g., see Ferrell et al., 1989;
Goolsby and Hunt, 1992; Hunt and Vitell, 1986,
1993; Jones, 1991; Trevino, 1986). These empiri-
cally based models lack a universally agreed on def-
inition of ‘‘ethical.’’ Alternatively, academics in
moral philosophy have attempted to formulate what
they believe is and is not ethical behavior in business,
but many seem to ignore or reject the basic mission
of business. The purpose of this article is to present
one approach, with input from both disciplines that
business academics and business practitioners can
accept and apply to their work.
Rationale for the scientific approach/
normative approach gap
Philosophy has a long tradition of separation of the
empirical ‘‘is’’ of science from the prescriptive
‘‘ought’’ of moral philosophy. Basically, moral phi-
losophy limits the use of empirical ‘‘facts’’ to the
description of ethical situations. Then, logic, usually
based on a specific philosophical belief (e.g., Kantian
Deontology), is used to ‘‘solve’’ that ethical situa-
tion. A 1994 discussion of the connection between
the empirical side of business and its normative ethics
provides an introduction for this discussion. The
April issue of the Business Ethics Quarterly for that
year contained several important articles on the
topic. One of the articles by Weaver and Trevino
outlined ‘‘three conceptio ...

Assignment 3: Research Questions & Variables
You will identify a research topic, explain your research idea, construct possible research questions (1 or 2 questions), determine which variables you could potentially use for your research paper (you will need to have 1 dependent variable and 3 independent variables), and state your hypotheses. You will have to give your future survey (Assignment 4) to friends or family, so think about what you will be able to ask them and what information they will be able to provide. We will not survey or interview vulnerable populations (anyone under 18, prisoners, etc.). It is okay if your idea is still a work-in-progress!

This document discusses three levels of moral dilemmas: personal, organizational, and structural.
Personal dilemmas are those resolved on an individual level, like a student torn between avenging his brother's death and caring for his mother. Organizational dilemmas arise in institutions like hospitals deciding on life support or businesses balancing responsibilities. Structural dilemmas involve networks of institutions, like setting medicine prices or implementing universal healthcare against other budget needs.

Can Administrative Ethics Be Taught?

Abstract
The changing nature of the public sector brings new challenges to governance
and ethical decision making. A main objective of the Master’s of Public
Administration (MPA) program is to bring current the pedagogy of ethics, in
order to reflect the evolving nature of the sector. This article reports on one such
effort that was employed in an introductory MPA course, using the approach
outlined by Walton, Stearns, and Crespy in 1997. It also provides details on
the students’ evaluations of the coursework related to the ethics module. The
ethics assignment given to students was designed to illustrate the complexity
of moral reasoning that is required to maintain adherence to ethical principles,
when processes lead to conflicts between deeply held value systems. Students
are provided with an updated administrative framework that builds upon our
Constitutional values, and emphasizes the implications of decision making for a
population that is broader and more diverse than those in the past.
Introduction
Trust in government — or the lack thereof — has become a subject of
considerable academic concern (Nye, Zelikow, & King, 1997; Catlaw, 2007). As
America has grown larger and more complicated, and as governments at all levels
have assumed additional responsibilities, the need for public administrators to
function as ethical and trustworthy managers of our public regulatory agencies
also has grown. Whatever their political ideologies, most Americans want
government to discharge its duties competently and in a manner consistent with
our Constitutional values. Furthermore, even the most ardent contemporary
advocate of limited government is likely to concede the utility and propriety of

Food & Drug Administration (FDA) regulations on food quality, for example,
in an era when few of us grow our own vegetables or slaughter our own animals.
Americans today must rely on government agencies to ensure that our water is
drinkable, our aircraft flyable, our roads passable, and much more.
It would be difficult to overstate the importance of being able to trust our
government agencies to discharge these and other, similar, functions in a competent
and ethical manner. When America goes through a time where government seems
inept or corrupt, as we periodically do, that confidence is shaken, and our skepticism
and distrust affect more than just the political system. This is because trust in our
governing institutions inevitably sets the tone for our confidence in all institutions.
When we perceive that our government is not trustworthy, that perception infects the
entire society (Me ...

Ethics and Behavior Analysis in Management
Ethical issues seem to dominate the news these days, and they extend to all areas of human endeavor including, of course, business and psychology. This chapter explores the topic of ethical issues when behavioral methods are applied to industrial/organizational (I/O) settings. The goal is not to create ethical guidelines. Rather, it is to provide an overview of the types of ethical guidelines already available as well as the nature, relevance, and importance of ethical issues that underlie such guidelines.
WHAT ARE ETHICAL PRINCIPLES?
Philosophers have long debated ethical issues. Numerous competing schools each adhere to tenets that not only are different, but sometimes opposite (Macklin, 1982). Part of this debate concerns the basic issue of how to define an ethical principle.
Philosophers sometimes quibble over whether our perceptions are reliable indicators of reality, but this issue seems to be of less concern to scientists. Scientists start with the observable, or what can be defined in terms of the observable (operational definitions). In most cases, there is a strong consensus about what is really “out there,” a consensus that is in large part based upon the consistency among observations. Scientists then attempt to find relationships between these observable entities or events, an activity that produces factual statements called laws. Factual statements deal with what might be called objective reality, descriptions about how things are.
In addition to factual statements, there are statements of value. Value statements are assertions about what is “good,” “right,” or “wrong,” and how entities and events in the world should be, not the way they necessarily are. Value statements are a cornerstone of ethics. Ethical principles look beyond what is, and ask what should be.
Other chapters in this book describe principles that can be used in organizational settings to modify behavior. In effect, the authors are presenting laws describing relationships between antecedent conditions, behaviors, and consequences. The process of discovering and describing these laws is identical to the process of discovering and describing laws in all other sciences, and as such, is grounded in objective reality and statements of fact. This chapter goes beyond such objective considerations and deals with ethical issues associated with the discovery and use of such laws.
WHY WOULD ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT RAISE ETHICAL CONCERNS?
Organizational behavior management (OBM) utilizes information derived from the field of behavior analysis (Mawhinney, 1984). Behavior analysis attempts to find universal laws of behavior. As a scientist, the behavior analyst believes that human behavior is lawful in the same sense th ...

This document provides an introduction and overview of a paper that will examine business ethics through a Kantian lens and stakeholder theory. It identifies two main challenges: 1) the procedural challenge of whether a business can be considered a moral agent that can be subject to moral obligations, and 2) the substantive challenge of directly applying Kant's categorical imperative to evaluate business decisions and practices. It notes that while businesses are made up of individuals, directly transferring theories of individual ethics may not apply to organizations. The document lays out that the paper will further explore these challenges and aim to develop an understanding of business ethics grounded in Kantian ethics through stakeholder theory.
10 myths about business ethics
Managing ethics in the workplace has several benefits beyond just being the morally right thing to do. It can help organizations maintain their moral compass during times of change, cultivate strong teamwork and productivity by aligning employee behaviors with core values, and act as an insurance policy by helping to ensure policies and procedures are legal and ethical. Overall, ethics programs promote a strong public image, strengthen organizational culture, and improve trust within the organization.

Business as usual: The
acceptance and perpetuation of
corruption in organizations
Vikas Anand, Blake E. Ashforth, and Mahendra Joshi
Executive Summary
Many of the recent corruption scandals at formerly venerated organizations such as
Enron, WorldCom, and Parmalat have some noteworthy features in common. In most
instances, the fraudulent acts involved knowing cooperation among numerous employees
who were upstanding community members, givers to charity, and caring parents—far
removed from the prototypical image of a criminal. The involvement of such individuals
in corrupt acts, and the persistence of the acts over time, is both disturbing and puzzling.
We argue that the above phenomenon can be explained in part by the rationalization
tactics used by individuals committing unethical or fraudulent acts. Rationalizations are
mental strategies that allow employees (and others around them) to view their corrupt
acts as justified. Employees may collectively use rationalizations to neutralize any regrets
or negative feelings that emanate from their participation in unethical acts. Further,
rationalizations are often accompanied by socialization tactics through which newcomers
entering corrupt units are induced to accept and practice the ongoing unethical acts and
their associated rationalizations. We describe the different forms of rationalization and
socialization tactics and the ways in which firms can prevent or reverse their occurrence
among employees. The onset of these two tactics can establish enduring corruption in
organizations and become institutionalized in seemingly innocuous processes.
........................................................................................................................................................................
In the past, fraud was viewed as a rare event
that happened to unlucky organizations. Now
it is commonly accepted that fraud is taking
place at virtually every organization, every
business. The only question is how big it is
and how can we catch it before it gets out of
hand and destroys a company or organization
as it has done with some companies recently,
such as Enron.” (Tony Bishop, Pre ...
Business ethics and spirituality
The document discusses business ethics and spirituality. It provides definitions of business ethics from various scholars that see it as rules or principles to guide moral behavior in business situations. Business ethics examines right and wrong in business decisions and activities. The document also discusses arguments for and against business ethics. It notes that while some argue profit is the sole goal and ethics do not apply to business, others believe ethics are important for businesses to operate successfully and avoid harms to society. The document explores models of moral development and the roles of virtues, morality, and spirituality in business ethics. It examines the positive and negative aspects of spirituality and how developing love and unity can overcome ego and selfishness.

This document summarizes key topics in business ethics including general business ethics, corporate social responsibility, ethics of finance, ethics of the finance paradigm, operational areas of financial ethics, and ethics of human resource management. It discusses issues like a company's purpose, stakeholder interests versus shareholder interests, creative accounting, insider trading, executive compensation, and employees' workplace rights. It also analyzes different perspectives on ethics in fields like finance and human resource management.
Why be moral in business a rawlsian approach
This document discusses a Rawlsian contractualist approach to moral motivation in business contexts. It argues that the desire to justify one's choices to others in reasonably acceptable terms provides a powerful reply to the question of why business people should prioritize ethics over immediate profits. It analyzes the desire to justify as distinct from other accounts of moral motivation like utilitarianism or deontological theories. The key point is that the contractualist conception links philosophical issues of ethics to motivational issues, as the desire to reasonably justify one's actions to others can motivate ethical behavior in business.
Myths about Business Ethics
This document discusses 10 common myths about business ethics. It seeks to debunk each myth by providing counterarguments and examples. Some of the key myths addressed include: that business ethics is more about religion than management; that employees are already ethical so formal ethics programs are not needed; and that ethics cannot be managed in an organization. The document argues that managing ethics and values in the workplace is indeed practical and important.
Compare and Contrast Between Duty Ethics and Divine Command
Compare and Contrast Between Duty Ethics and Divine Command
Duty Ethics is the ethical theory that was began with the teaching of Immanuel Kant, who was a German philosopher that lived from 1724 to 1804. He believed that a sense of duty should be the main concept of a person’s beliefs. Basically, Kant believed that a person should be guided by principles that they would like everyone else to live by.1 In the theory of duty ethics, a person is to act in a certain way, because it is the correct way to act. Duty ethics define the good as treating others in a respectful humane manner, since that is how you would want to be treated. A weakness of the Duty Ethics theory is that not every person has the same understanding or belief of what is right or wrong.
Divine Command is that ethical theory that believes what is good is good because it was commanded by God.2 As it explains in a conversation someone had with Jesus, in Matthew 19:17. “Why do you ask me about what is good? He said to him. “There is only one who is good. If you want to enter life, keep the commandments.”3 This theory teaches that people cannot live a moral life, unless they follow the moral teachings of God.4 A weakness that I think the Divine Command theory has is that if a person is not a believer, why would they follow the instructions of the deity giving the commands? When God created humankind, He gave us the freedom of choice. With this choice He also instilled in us the basic understanding of what is morally right or wrong.
Both theories teach us to do what is right, to treat other people, how we would want to be treated, with kindness and respect. Duty Ethics Theory teaches us to do the right thing no matter what the outcome is. Divine Command Theory teaches to what is right because it is what God commanded. Another difference is where Duty Ethics can change with the morals of society, Divine Command does not change because God’s commands do not change.
The Divine Command Theory is a stronger ethical theory than Duty Ethics Theory. It is the stronger theory, because it teaches people to follow the commandments of God and the teachings of the Bible. When a person follows the teaches of God and the bible, they will have a stronger understanding of what is morally right and wrong. With this understand they will make better ethical choices and decisions. Through these teachings we know that it is not right to cheat, steal, or commit murder, et cetera. The commandments and the instructions of God and the Bible are not open to change and cannot be change in order to fit the circumstances. When a person follows these commandments, they can live a life that is both morally ethical and pleasing to God.

Compare and contrast between duty ethics and divine command
The document compares and contrasts duty ethics and divine command theory. Duty ethics is based on Immanuel Kant's view that people should act according to principles that everyone should live by, treating others with respect. A weakness is that people may have different views of right and wrong. Divine command theory holds that something is good because God commanded it. It teaches following God's moral teachings, but non-believers may not be motivated to follow a deity's commands. Both theories say to treat people with kindness, but divine command theory bases morality on God's unchanging commands while duty ethics can change with societal morals.
Sociological institutionalism for a (mostly) economist audience
Sociological institutionalism for a (mostly) economist audienceInsper - Instituto de Ensino e Pesquisa
Sociological Institutionalism argues that institutions shape actor preferences and available choices rather than actors rationally designing institutions. It focuses on how shared understandings, norms, and routines develop through fields and isomorphic processes like mimicry. While providing explanations for stability, it has faced criticism around allowing for innovation and change given its emphasis on taken-for-granted practices and copying between actors. The theory is argued to be most applicable in situations where symbolic dimensions dominate, technical dimensions are immature, or long time frames are considered.Ethics in Accounting
This document discusses ethics in accounting. It begins by defining ethics and explaining the different areas of study within ethics, including meta-ethics, normative ethics, applied ethics, and descriptive ethics. It then discusses the history of accounting ethics, including Luca Pacioli's early writings on accounting ethics in 1494. It explains how various professional organizations have developed codes of ethics for accountants. The rest of the document covers philosophical theories of ethics like utilitarianism and discusses the importance of teaching ethics to accountants.

Ethics and the News
For
Week 4
, address the following in a three-page paper:
Identify a current event or contemporary social issue that involves ethical values. Your issue must be broad enough to sustain deep philosophical analysis and must have relevance to your community. A good choice of issue is one that (1) involves a decision that must be made that involves competing ethical values and considerations, (2) includes with various available options about which reasonable people can disagree, (3) concretely affects people’s lives, and (4) might be influenced by external and internal factors such as social norms, oppression, religious and other personal beliefs, socially-imposed constraints (such as laws), and physical limitations. Issues that only affect a few people or have only a minor impact are probably too narrow. Issues that you are not open to examining with an open mind will also not work well for this assignment. For some topic suggestions, you might want to browse the website of a reputable news organization or review some political blogs you follow.
Identify at least two news articles on your topic located using the South University Online Library and/or reputable news outlets. Make sure that the articles you choose present at least two different accounts of the values that should be considered in addressing the issue and include information and facts that you can use to develop your arguments and analysis. If you cannot locate two news articles on your topic, or if all of the articles share the same perspective, you should choose another topic. You should cite the two articles using correct APA citation.
Explain at least one ethical theory from your assigned readings. Cite support from the primary text selections in the chapter as well as authoritative secondary sources such as the course text and online lectures.
Analyze the issue using the theory of ethics. For example, you might discuss utilitarianism, deontology, virtue/care ethics, or existentialism.
Contrast this analysis with the approach a second theory would take. For instance, you might contrast deontology with utilitarianism by distinguishing duty from the principle of utility, or compare care ethics and existentialism by discussing the relative approaches to intersubjectivity.

BARRETT_MANUSCRIPT_Evaluating Business Ethics.2016
This document provides an introduction and overview of a paper that will examine business ethics through a Kantian lens and stakeholder theory. It identifies two main challenges: 1) the procedural challenge of whether a business can be considered a moral agent that can be subject to moral obligations, and 2) the substantive challenge of directly applying Kant's categorical imperative to evaluate business decisions and practices. It notes that while businesses are made up of individuals, directly transferring theories of individual ethics may not apply to organizations. The document lays out that the paper will further explore these challenges and aim to develop an understanding of business ethics grounded in Kantian ethics through stakeholder theory.
10 myths about business ethics
Managing ethics in the workplace has several benefits beyond just being the morally right thing to do. It can help organizations maintain their moral compass during times of change, cultivate strong teamwork and productivity by aligning employee behaviors with core values, and act as an insurance policy by helping to ensure policies and procedures are legal and ethical. Overall, ethics programs promote a strong public image, strengthen organizational culture, and improve trust within the organization.

Business as usual: The
acceptance and perpetuation of
corruption in organizations
Vikas Anand, Blake E. Ashforth, and Mahendra Joshi
Executive Summary
Many of the recent corruption scandals at formerly venerated organizations such as
Enron, WorldCom, and Parmalat have some noteworthy features in common. In most
instances, the fraudulent acts involved knowing cooperation among numerous employees
who were upstanding community members, givers to charity, and caring parents—far
removed from the prototypical image of a criminal. The involvement of such individuals
in corrupt acts, and the persistence of the acts over time, is both disturbing and puzzling.
We argue that the above phenomenon can be explained in part by the rationalization
tactics used by individuals committing unethical or fraudulent acts. Rationalizations are
mental strategies that allow employees (and others around them) to view their corrupt
acts as justified. Employees may collectively use rationalizations to neutralize any regrets
or negative feelings that emanate from their participation in unethical acts. Further,
rationalizations are often accompanied by socialization tactics through which newcomers
entering corrupt units are induced to accept and practice the ongoing unethical acts and
their associated rationalizations. We describe the different forms of rationalization and
socialization tactics and the ways in which firms can prevent or reverse their occurrence
among employees. The onset of these two tactics can establish enduring corruption in
organizations and become institutionalized in seemingly innocuous processes.
........................................................................................................................................................................
In the past, fraud was viewed as a rare event
that happened to unlucky organizations. Now
it is commonly accepted that fraud is taking
place at virtually every organization, every
business. The only question is how big it is
and how can we catch it before it gets out of
hand and destroys a company or organization
as it has done with some companies recently,
such as Enron.” (Tony Bishop, Pre ...
Business ethics and spirituality

It provides definitions of business ethics from various scholars that see it as rules or principles to guide moral behavior in business situations. Business ethics examines right and wrong in business decisions and activities. The document also discusses arguments for and against business ethics. It notes that while some argue profit is the sole goal and ethics do not apply to business, others believe ethics are important for businesses to operate successfully and avoid harms to society. The document explores models of moral development and the roles of virtues, morality, and spirituality in business ethics. It examines the positive and negative aspects of spirituality and how developing love and unity can overcome ego and selfishness.

Ethics and the News
For
Week 4
, address the following in a three-page paper:
Identify a current event or contemporary social issue that involves ethical values. Your issue must be broad enough to sustain deep philosophical analysis and must have relevance to your community. A good choice of issue is one that (1) involves a decision that must be made that involves competing ethical values and considerations, (2) includes with various available options about which reasonable people can disagree, (3) concretely affects people’s lives, and (4) might be influenced by external and internal factors such as social norms, oppression, religious and other personal beliefs, socially-imposed constraints (such as laws), and physical limitations. Issues that only affect a few people or have only a minor impact are probably too narrow. Issues that you are not open to examining with an open mind will also not work well for this assignment. For some topic suggestions, you might want to browse the website of a reputable news organization or review some political blogs you follow.
Identify at least two news articles on your topic located using the South University Online Library and/or reputable news outlets. Make sure that the articles you choose present at least two different accounts of the values that should be considered in addressing the issue and include information and facts that you can use to develop your arguments and analysis. If you cannot locate two news articles on your topic, or if all of the articles share the same perspective, you should choose another topic. You should cite the two articles using correct APA citation.
Explain at least one ethical theory from your assigned readings. Cite support from the primary text selections in the chapter as well as authoritative secondary sources such as the course text and online lectures.
Analyze the issue using the theory of ethics. For example, you might discuss utilitarianism, deontology, virtue/care ethics, or existentialism.
Contrast this analysis with the approach a second theory would take. For instance, you might contrast deontology with utilitarianism by distinguishing duty from the principle of utility, or compare care ethics and existentialism by discussing the relative approaches to intersubjectivity.

Review the Huston (2010) article listed under reading assignments. W.docx
Review the Huston (2010) article listed under reading assignments. Which skills described for the Nurse Leader in the year 2020 are important now? Explain your rationale and provide an example from your practice setting (or from your prelicensure program) to support it.
This is the article:
eynote speaker at the conference, American
nursing professor and former president of
the international honour society of nursing,
Sigma Theta Tau, Carol Huston, painted a
picture of a brave new nursing world in 2020,
in her opening presentation,
Preparing nurse
leaders for 2020.
She outlined eight leadership competencies
every nurse leader would need in the 2020. The
first was a global perspective. “Every health care
issue has to be looked at from a global perspective.
We used to think pandemics were confined
to developing countries. We now know they are
just one short flight away.”
There was a more urgent need for international
standards for basic nursing education.
The nursing shortage was one of the most
serious threats to global health, she said, and
it would get significantly worse before it got
better. Nurse migration was a global problem.
(See news p7.)
The second leadership competency was better
use of technology to connect people. Technology
had driven so many changes already in health
care but knowledge and information acquisition
and distribution was going to multiply exponentially.
“Forty percent of what we know today will
be obsolete in three years,” Huston said.
She listed a range of technological developments
that would have a major impact on health
care in the next 20 years. By 2030 diagnostic
body scans, which could identify underlying
pathology, would become part of showering.
Improvements in body scanning technology
would mean there would be no need for invasive
surgery or tests. “Nano bots” circulating in the
blood stream would identify disease processes
and begin to repair them. Gene therapy would
mean what was now untreatable would be treatable
and could see cancer abolished completely
within two decades. Stem cell therapy would
eliminate the need for organ transplants “as we
will grow new organs. It is predicted we will be
able to grow heart, kidneys and livers by 2020.
There are already clinical trials underway growing
new teeth – instead of dentures you would
grow you own new teeth.”
Merging of the human and the machine would
advance significantly and by 2020 there would
be pancreatic pacemakers for diabetics and the
technology to enable blind people to see and
deaf people to hear.
Robotics would continue to develop, with
physical service robots which could wash patients
and help feed and carry patients. There
was the potential for the use of robots in
therapeutic roles. Paro, a robotic seal developed
in Japan, responded to patting by closing its

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Responsibility or EthicsPlease respond to the followingIn .docx
- 1. Responsibility or Ethics" Please respond to the following: In a 1996 article entitled “Toward a Theory of the Ethics of Bureaucratic Organizations, Allen Buchanan argues that “bureaucratic organizations” should be seen as “complex webs of principal/agent relationships. So an adequate theory of ethics for bureaucratic organizations would centre on the reductions of agency risks. Buchanan lists the following as typical risks faced by bureaucratic organizations: Outright misappropriation of resource, goal substitution (cases where bureaucrats covertly pursue their own goals…under the guise of implementing authorized policies), passive opposition to policies, shirking (substituting leisure or the pursuit of other unauthorized activities for compensated work times), and expertise imperialism (e.g., treating ethical problems as if they were simply economical issues). In your view, should leaders in the public service pursue the “greatest good for the greatest number,” or follow a set of moral rules when they make decisions involving difficult ethical issues? Explain. You may identify current events/situations relevant to any particular aspect of ethical behavior in public administration.
