CONCEPT OF PUBLIC
ADMINISTRATION
Why do we need
to define each and
every terms? –
including the term
PUBLIC
ADMINISTRATION
The term PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION need to
be defined, because:
1. Public Administration concepts and
terminologies are not static and do not
apply in a uniform way in all places and
cultures
2. Public Administration, through its nature, is
different from private or business
administration.
3. to establish the general boundaries and to
express the main concept of discipline and
practices of public administration,
4. To place the concept in a large political,
economical and social context,
5. To provide a common understanding.

names

Various DEFINITIONS OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION
Woodrow Wilson
“Public Administration is
a detailed and systematic
application of law.”
Marshall E. Dimock -
“Administration is
concerned with ‘what’ and
‘How’ of the government.
The what is the subject
matter, the technical
knowledge of a field which
enables the administrator
to perform his tasks. The
‘How’ is the technique of
management according to
which co-operative
programmes are carried to
success.”
Waldo - “Public
Adminitration is the art and
science of management as
applied to the affairs of the
state.”
Leornard. D. White “Public
Administration consists of all
those operations having for
their purpose the fulfillment of
public policy as declared by
authority.”

EVOLUTION
of PA
INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
• Public Administration as a discipline is not very old and it is only a hundred years. During these
years Public Administration has passed through several phases of development. We can
broadly divide the history of Public Administration into the following five periods:-
• Period I 1887 – 1926
• Period II 1927 - 1937
• Period III 1938 - 1947
• Period IV 1948 - 1970
• Period V 1971 - continuing
PA PHASES
• Phase 1 - Woodrow Wilson’s “The Study of Administration” was the first
to present the demand for separation (Politics Administration Dichotomy)
between politics and administration. The scholars of this phase have
practiced more on the (Locus) basis of public administration. The
bureaucratic institution of the government is the mainstay of public
administration.
• Phase 2 - In this phase of the evolution of public administration,
discussions on public administration have been tried as scientific
discussions since this time. It is thought that there are a number of
scientific principles in the discussion of public administration that need to
be disclosed.
• Phase 3 - In this phase of the evolution of public administration, basically,
the theoretical concept of public administration is challenged from two
perspectives.
• Phase 4 - Administrative theorists of this time recognized the
relationship of public administration with politics. As a result,
public administration became dependent on political science.
In this situation, there is confusion about what is the discussion
area of public administration.
• Phase 5 - During this time, the context of politics has gained
special importance in the discussion of public administration.
Accusing the conflict between politics and administration as
narrow and self-serving, the new writers have identified
administration as a problem of political theory. This was mainly
in the United States and Europe.
TRADITIONAL PA
 The traditional model of public administration rests in important ways on the
articulation by Max Weber of the nature of bureaucracy.
 Weber emphasized control from top to bottom in the form of monocratic
hierarchy, that is, a system of control in which policy is set at the top and
 carried out through a series of offices, with each manager and worker
reporting to one superior
 and held to account by that person.
 The bureaucratic system is based on a set of rules and regulations flowing
from public law; the system of control is rational and legal.
 The role of the bureaucrat is strictly subordinate to the political superior.
DEVELOPMENT PA
• Development Administration (DA) as a field of study
emerged in 1950s and 1960s with the third world
countries as the focal point. The term “third world”
may be attributed to the French demographer and
economic historian Alfred Sauvy, who at the height of
the Cold War in 1952, used the term to distinguish
developing countries outside the two power blocs;
namely, the First World and the Second World
respectively. (Chilcote 1984)
DEVELOPMENT
ADMINISTRATION
 Development Administration is about projects, programs,
policies and ideas which are focused at development of a
nation, with the point of view of socio-economic and socio-
political development of society in general, carried out by
talented and skilled bureaucrats.
 For effective Development Administration the structure of
Administration itself must be empowered, large and capable
enough to sustain the pressures by the developmental
activities.
In simpler words it means to develop administrative health
by rationalizing and institution building and bringing about a
Cont…
• In essence the objective of Administrative development can be summarized
as:
Building decision making capabilities.
Development of skill and specialization to tackle complex issues in the
personnel.
Giving importance to training, effective use of technology to bring about
change in Administrative approach.
Increasing administrative capacity, capabilities, removing corruption and
bringing in more accountability.
Creating leaders out of bureaucrats for promotion of development initiatives.
NEW PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION
The term new public administration simply means that there was a
public administration which was old. Literally this is correct. But the
fact is that with the change of all the major and minor aspects of
society the administration of society has undergone changes,
because the public administration is to cope with the changes.
Otherwise it cannot meet the basic necessities of society.
Whatever may the form of government be, there must exist an
administration. This is fundamental notion and from this comes the
notion of new public administration
The public administration of pre-1960s was primarily concerned with
the budgeting, efficiency, decision-making and the implementation of
decisions.
But the events of post-Second World War threw a challenge to these
basic concepts or aspects of public administration.
• The term “New Public Administration” or New PA may have emerged
from the Minnowbrook Conference in 1968 in Syracuse University. The
conference was the brainchild and inspiration of Dwight Waldo who
brought together young public administrators and scholars to discuss
important issues and varying perspectives on public administration.
The conference created a hullabaloo.
• New PA then called for client-oriented administration, non-bureaucratic
structures, participatory decision-making, decentralized administration
and advocate-administrators. (Frederickson 1971; Nigro and Nigro
1989) With the above contentions, it can be said that the theme of New
PA is “change” and the challenge is for the public administrators is their
capacity to accept change
NEW PUBLIC MANAGEMENT
• In the 1980s and early 90s, as if there was a
collective assault on the organization questioning
conventional and traditional ways of doing things –
both in the private and public sectors -various
strategies and modalities underscoring the imperative
for fundamental internal and external reform in the
organization emerged. They ranged from being more
“client” or “customer” oriented, to the decentralization
of authority to being more “business oriented”
especially for those in government.
• The new public management (NPM) movement was apparently
practiced by the European countries in the late 1907s and
1980s but was essentially launched several luminaries such as
Christopher Hood (1991), Christopher Pollitt (1990), and
Michael Barzeley (1992), among others in early 90s. Similar
movements such as reinventing government and reengineering
also emerged around the same time. This section introduces
NPM, reinventing government and reengineering government.
When did these ideas emerge? What were their key features?
And were these really more of the same?
• The best example of the NPM practice can be seen in
New Zealand’s administrative reforms. Their
government privatized substantial public functions,
redeveloped their personnel system in order to be
more performance-oriented, instituted new processes
of productivity measures, and reengineered
departmental systems to reflect government’s
commitment. (Boston 1996; as cited in Denhardt
2004: 136-137)
THEORIES OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION
40
Sub-Topics
Public Administration as an Organisation
What is Theory?
Classical Theories of Public Administration
• Theory of bureucracy – Max Weber & Woodrow Wilson
• Scientific Management – Frederick Taylor; Luther Gullick, Henry Fayol
Human Relations Movement
• Herbert Simon, Mary Parker Follet, The Hawthorn Study, Maslow
Hierrachical Needs, Theory X and Theory Y
Contemporary Theories of Public Administration
• New Public Management;
• New Public Service.
• Good Governance
41
The concept of organization and theory
Theory use to understand how Public
Administration as an organisation could be
efficiently operate to fulfil various demands for
Public Administration
Example: just, equity, equality, efficient and
effective public service, strengthen the socio-
economic condition, controlling people behaviour,
minimising health risk (ie COVID-19), security of the
people from any threat, to protect sovereignty of the
country etc
42
Organization: a group of people who work
together to pursue a goal. They use resources
and technologies to achieve effective
performance of their goals. Uncertainties and
risks manage by organizing activities,
leadership process, and structures (Rainey,
2009; p. 20-21)
What is Theory?
• derived from Latin word theoria and the Greek word theoro
• theory for scientific study is a frame of reference; or in easy word refers
as contemplation, speculation, hypothesis and sight thoughts,
conjectures or ideas; an abstracted generalization or a kind of
shorthand that may be used as a fact; a summary statement providing
an explanation of a phenomenon or range of phenomena that co-
varies under particular conditions.
• Teori dalam kajian saintifik merujuk kepada satu kerangka sistematik
atau dalam bahasa mudah jangkaan, andaian, idea, spekulasi yang
digunakan sebagai fakta, atau membuat kesimpulan terhadap mana-
mana fenomena
(Marume, Jubenkanda, Namusi & Madziyire, 2016; Thornhill & van Dijk, 2010)
43
The Necessity For Theory In
Public Administration
• to understand on Public Administration as an efficient organization.
• to appreciate the significance, purpose, means and ends of Public
Administration in the social system.
• To strengthen Public Adminbistration. Relatively a new field of study,
being only 100+ years in existence, and still in the same state of
change, chaos and confusion about the modern administrative world,
• need for wider knowledge of administrative phenomena
• to develop a reasonably coherent conceptual system for classifying of
data, that will make it possible to deal with universals & realities
• to find the truth in Public Administration
• to develop a theory
44
(Marume, Jubenkanda, Namusi & Madziyire, 2016)
CLASSICAL THEORIES of PA
Classical theories (1887-1926)
 labelled by Herbert Simon as the ideas and contributions of end of the 19th century
and early 20th century.
 PA is a science as a Science / scientific = specific process, systematic process,
construct or principles, a concept with specific values for PA to be efficient and
separate from politics
 Could be divided into two categories: (A) bureaucratic approach, and (B) scientific
management:
A. BUREAUCRATIC APPROACH
1.1 Theory of Bureaucracy – (a) Max Weber & (b) Woodrow Wilson
B. SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT
promoting the one best way of performing a task : Scholars:
1.2 Frederick W. Taylor Scientific Management
1.3 Luther Gulick (POSDCORB (the 7 Principles of Management)
1.4 Henry Fayol (The 14 Management Principles)
45
Theory of Bureaucracy-Max Weber
 Introduced the concept of ideal
bureaucracy- (birokrasi ideal)
 Bureaucracy = organisation (ideal
organisation)
 The idea of ideal bureaucracy is widely
adopted by most countries.
 According to Weber, the ideal bureaucracy
work on several principles: (birokrasi yang
ideal berfungsi dengan beberapa prinsip)
 Max Weber
(1864-1920)
 German scholar to
make a systematic
analysis on
bureaucracy
46
Principles of Bureaucracy
1. managers formal authority > managers formal authority; is the
power to hold people accountable for their actions and to make
decisions concerning the use of organizational resources
2. Rules, regulation standard operating procedures for unity of
command / create norms / to effectively control behaviour within an
organization
3. hierarchical system > whom to report to and who reports to them
4. designated tasks and authority associated with various positions in
the organization should be clearly specified for managers and
to know what is expected of them
5. Appointment and Promotion Base on Competency not Base on
Sentiment > appointed on the basis of professional qualifications
47
2. Theory of Bureaucracy- Woodrow Wilson
• Expanded Weber’s the idea of bureaucracy – In 1887
produced an essay, "The Study of Administration”
which introduced the politics-administration
dichotomy (separation).
• In Wilson’s words, public administration is "the
detailed and systematic execution of public law" and
he believes there should be a strict separation of
politics from administration because administration
lies outside politics and administrative
• eliminate the arbitrariness and corruption in the
administration (elak pertimbangan ikut kehendak hati
& rasuah)
• Critique: there has not been completed and clear
separation between politics and administration. These
days both elements are overlapping and works
together to achieve various PA goals

3. Frederick W. Taylor
FREDERICK W. TAYLOR SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT
CONTAIN 4 PRINCIPLES:
1. a science for each element of a man's work, which
replaces the old rule-of-thumb method.
2. scientifically select and then train, teach, and develop the
workman, whereas in the past he chose his own work
and trained himself as best he could.
3. heartily cooperate with the men so as to ensure all of the
work being done in accordance with the principles of the
science which has been developed
4. almost equal division of the work and the responsibility
between the management and the workmen/
workwomen. The management take over all work for
which they are better fitted than the workmen/
workwomen, while in the past almost all of the work and
the greater part of the responsibility were thrown upon
the men.
 Born into a wealthy
family in the US in
1856
 Taylor collected his
ideas in the article
titled “The Principles of
Scientific Management”
published in 1911
50
4. Luther Gulick : POSDCORB
(the 7 Principles of Management)
• Provide view on keeping organization
efficiency and increased productivity.
• Originally derived from an essay entitled
“Notes on the Theory of Organization
written by Luther Gulick and Lyndall Urwick
published in collection “The papers on the
Science of Administration (1937)
• Invented the famous mnemonic
POSDCORB to explain the key
responsibilities of a public manager
51
Luther Gulick : POSDCORB
(the 7 Principles of Management)
52
P Planning (perancangan) : Working out the board outline the things that need to be
done and the methods for doing them to accomplish the purpose which is set for the
enterprise.
O Organising (pengorganisasian) formal structure of authority through which work
subdivisions are arranged, defined and coordinated for the defined objective of
the organization
S Staffing (penstaffan): function of bringing in and training the staff and
maintaining favorable conditions of work. Both qualitative and quantitative
D Directing (arahan): The continuous task of making decisions and embodying
them in specific and general orders and instructions and serving as the leader
of the enterprise
Co Coordinating (koordinasi): Interrelating the various entities and processes of
work
R Reporting: Keeping those to whom the executive is responsible as well as
subordinates informed through records, research and inspections
B Budgetting: budgeting in the form of planning to ensure sources of income,
accounting and control on expenditures
(Agrawal & Vashistha, 2013; Marijani, 2018)
5. HENRY FAYOL: 14 principles of general management
• Developed a set of 14 principles concerning the structuring
of organisations. These are:
1. Division of work (pembahagian tugas)
2. Authority (kuasa)
3. Discipline (disiplin)
4. Unity of command (punca arahan)
5. Unity of direction (objektif/matlamat)
6. Scalar chain (punca kuasa)
7. Centralisation (pemusatan)
8. Order
9. Equity (kesaksamaan)
10. Remuneration (duit/ganjaran kebendaan)
11. Subordination of individual interests to general interests
(kehendak individu VS matlamat organisasi)

1. Herbert Simon
• Produced a book ‘Administrative Behavior’, Herbert
Proposed the concepts of:
(i) bounded rationality and (ii) satisficing > both are
the social and behavioral sciences concepts
introduced to strengthen Public Administration as a
scientific field of study.
• Bounded Rationality (Rational behaviour made decision
rationally. Have ALL information in hands.
• Satisficing Bounded Rationality (constrains faced by
administrator in making decision to make decision) –
Administrator normally do not access ALL information to
make decision
Rationality requires a complete knowledge and anticipation of the consequences that
will follow on each choice. In fact, knowledge of consequences is always
fragmentary.
55
(Mintrom, 2015; Nor Azizah, 2005)
Mary Parker Follett
• believed that management was "the art of
getting things done through people.“
• Introduced the concept the law of situation
rather than positional authority.
• Orders are given because they are
demanded by the logic of the situation
incorporating input from those with
expertise in the area
• for subordinate to accept the order given
to them the situation must be conducive
56
(Feldheim, 2004)
The Hawthorne Study
Hawthorne experiments sought to determine
the motivating factors behind success and
productivity in the work place. Found that
employee were motivated not only by physical
factors (ie surroundings, salary) but also by
the human aspects of their work.

kemanusian, tidak sekadar wang, dan

The Hawthorne Study
 Based on series of experiments, found that
the basic principles of human relations are
as follows:
1. workers are social being, therefore must
be understood as people
2. work is a group activity.
3. the importance of recognition, security,
and sense of belonging
4. non-economic incentive (social rewards)
versus economic incentive (money)
5. informal group within formal organisation
has potential in controlling employee
habits and attitudes
6. consultation considered as the most
effective supervision style

(Perkhidmatan Awam Baharu)
• Approaches do not yet form a coherent
paradigm and they have different frames of
reference.
• Emphasize on the role of PA focus of on
citizens, community and civil society.
• Public Servants are to assist / to help people
to articulate and meet their needs rather than
to control or steer society (Denhardt &
Denhardt, 2000)
• Citizens look beyond narrow self-interest to

The ‘How’ is the technique of management according to which co-operative programmes are carried to success.” Waldo - “Public Adminitration is the art and science of management as applied to the affairs of the state.” Leornard.

  • 25. INTRODUCTION • Public Administration as a discipline is not very old and it is only a hundred years. During these years Public Administration has passed through several phases of development. We can broadly divide the history of Public Administration into the following five periods:- • Period I 1887 – 1926 • Period II 1927 - 1937 • Period III 1938 - 1947 • Period IV 1948 - 1970 • Period V 1971 - continuing
  • 26. PA PHASES • Phase 1 - Woodrow Wilson’s “The Study of Administration” was the first to present the demand for separation (Politics Administration Dichotomy) between politics and administration. The scholars of this phase have practiced more on the (Locus) basis of public administration. The bureaucratic institution of the government is the mainstay of public administration. • Phase 2 - In this phase of the evolution of public administration, discussions on public administration have been tried as scientific discussions since this time. It is thought that there are a number of scientific principles in the discussion of public administration that need to be disclosed. • Phase 3 - In this phase of the evolution of public administration, basically, the theoretical concept of public administration is challenged from two perspectives.
  • 27. • Phase 4 - Administrative theorists of this time recognized the relationship of public administration with politics. As a result, public administration became dependent on political science. In this situation, there is confusion about what is the discussion area of public administration. • Phase 5 - During this time, the context of politics has gained special importance in the discussion of public administration. Accusing the conflict between politics and administration as narrow and self-serving, the new writers have identified administration as a problem of political theory. This was mainly in the United States and Europe.
  • 28. TRADITIONAL PA  The traditional model of public administration rests in important ways on the articulation by Max Weber of the nature of bureaucracy.  Weber emphasized control from top to bottom in the form of monocratic hierarchy, that is, a system of control in which policy is set at the top and  carried out through a series of offices, with each manager and worker reporting to one superior  and held to account by that person.  The bureaucratic system is based on a set of rules and regulations flowing from public law; the system of control is rational and legal.  The role of the bureaucrat is strictly subordinate to the political superior.
  • 29. DEVELOPMENT PA • Development Administration (DA) as a field of study emerged in 1950s and 1960s with the third world countries as the focal point. The term “third world” may be attributed to the French demographer and economic historian Alfred Sauvy, who at the height of the Cold War in 1952, used the term to distinguish developing countries outside the two power blocs; namely, the First World and the Second World respectively. (Chilcote 1984)
  • 30. DEVELOPMENT ADMINISTRATION  Development Administration is about projects, programs, policies and ideas which are focused at development of a nation, with the point of view of socio-economic and socio- political development of society in general, carried out by talented and skilled bureaucrats.  For effective Development Administration the structure of Administration itself must be empowered, large and capable enough to sustain the pressures by the developmental activities. In simpler words it means to develop administrative health by rationalizing and institution building and bringing about a
  • 31. Cont… • In essence the objective of Administrative development can be summarized as: Building decision making capabilities. Development of skill and specialization to tackle complex issues in the personnel. Giving importance to training, effective use of technology to bring about change in Administrative approach. Increasing administrative capacity, capabilities, removing corruption and bringing in more accountability. Creating leaders out of bureaucrats for promotion of development initiatives.
  • 32.
  • 33. NEW PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION The term new public administration simply means that there was a public administration which was old. Literally this is correct. But the fact is that with the change of all the major and minor aspects of society the administration of society has undergone changes, because the public administration is to cope with the changes. Otherwise it cannot meet the basic necessities of society. Whatever may the form of government be, there must exist an administration. This is fundamental notion and from this comes the notion of new public administration The public administration of pre-1960s was primarily concerned with the budgeting, efficiency, decision-making and the implementation of decisions. But the events of post-Second World War threw a challenge to these basic concepts or aspects of public administration.
  • 34. • The term “New Public Administration” or New PA may have emerged from the Minnowbrook Conference in 1968 in Syracuse University. The conference was the brainchild and inspiration of Dwight Waldo who brought together young public administrators and scholars to discuss important issues and varying perspectives on public administration. The conference created a hullabaloo. • New PA then called for client-oriented administration, non-bureaucratic structures, participatory decision-making, decentralized administration and advocate-administrators. (Frederickson 1971; Nigro and Nigro 1989) With the above contentions, it can be said that the theme of New PA is “change” and the challenge is for the public administrators is their capacity to accept change
  • 35. NEW PUBLIC MANAGEMENT • In the 1980s and early 90s, as if there was a collective assault on the organization questioning conventional and traditional ways of doing things – both in the private and public sectors -various strategies and modalities underscoring the imperative for fundamental internal and external reform in the organization emerged. They ranged from being more “client” or “customer” oriented, to the decentralization of authority to being more “business oriented” especially for those in government.
  • 36. • The new public management (NPM) movement was apparently practiced by the European countries in the late 1907s and 1980s but was essentially launched several luminaries such as Christopher Hood (1991), Christopher Pollitt (1990), and Michael Barzeley (1992), among others in early 90s. Similar movements such as reinventing government and reengineering also emerged around the same time. This section introduces NPM, reinventing government and reengineering government. When did these ideas emerge? What were their key features? And were these really more of the same?
  • 37. • The best example of the NPM practice can be seen in New Zealand’s administrative reforms. Their government privatized substantial public functions, redeveloped their personnel system in order to be more performance-oriented, instituted new processes of productivity measures, and reengineered departmental systems to reflect government’s commitment. (Boston 1996; as cited in Denhardt 2004: 136-137)

  • 40. THEORIES OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION 40
  • 41. Sub-Topics Public Administration as an Organisation What is Theory? Classical Theories of Public Administration • Theory of bureucracy – Max Weber & Woodrow Wilson • Scientific Management – Frederick Taylor; Luther Gullick, Henry Fayol Human Relations Movement • Herbert Simon, Mary Parker Follet, The Hawthorn Study, Maslow Hierrachical Needs, Theory X and Theory Y Contemporary Theories of Public Administration • New Public Management; • New Public Service. • Good Governance 41
  • 42. The concept of organization and theory Theory use to understand how Public Administration as an organisation could be efficiently operate to fulfil various demands for Public Administration Example: just, equity, equality, efficient and effective public service, strengthen the socio- economic condition, controlling people behaviour, minimising health risk (ie COVID-19), security of the people from any threat, to protect sovereignty of the country etc 42 Organization: a group of people who work together to pursue a goal. They use resources and technologies to achieve effective performance of their goals. Uncertainties and risks manage by organizing activities, leadership process, and structures (Rainey, 2009; p. 20-21)
  • 43. What is Theory? • derived from Latin word theoria and the Greek word theoro • theory for scientific study is a frame of reference; or in easy word refers as contemplation, speculation, hypothesis and sight thoughts, conjectures or ideas; an abstracted generalization or a kind of shorthand that may be used as a fact; a summary statement providing an explanation of a phenomenon or range of phenomena that co- varies under particular conditions. • Teori dalam kajian saintifik merujuk kepada satu kerangka sistematik atau dalam bahasa mudah jangkaan, andaian, idea, spekulasi yang digunakan sebagai fakta, atau membuat kesimpulan terhadap mana- mana fenomena (Marume, Jubenkanda, Namusi & Madziyire, 2016; Thornhill & van Dijk, 2010) 43
  • 44. The Necessity For Theory In Public Administration • to understand on Public Administration as an efficient organization. • to appreciate the significance, purpose, means and ends of Public Administration in the social system. • To strengthen Public Adminbistration. Relatively a new field of study, being only 100+ years in existence, and still in the same state of change, chaos and confusion about the modern administrative world, • need for wider knowledge of administrative phenomena • to develop a reasonably coherent conceptual system for classifying of data, that will make it possible to deal with universals & realities • to find the truth in Public Administration • to develop a theory 44 (Marume, Jubenkanda, Namusi & Madziyire, 2016)
  • 45. CLASSICAL THEORIES of PA Classical theories (1887-1926)  labelled by Herbert Simon as the ideas and contributions of end of the 19th century and early 20th century.  PA is a science as a Science / scientific = specific process, systematic process, construct or principles, a concept with specific values for PA to be efficient and separate from politics  Could be divided into two categories: (A) bureaucratic approach, and (B) scientific management: A. BUREAUCRATIC APPROACH 1.1 Theory of Bureaucracy – (a) Max Weber & (b) Woodrow Wilson B. SCIENTIFIC MANAGEMENT promoting the one best way of performing a task : Scholars: 1.2 Frederick W. Taylor Scientific Management 1.3 Luther Gulick (POSDCORB (the 7 Principles of Management) 1.4 Henry Fayol (The 14 Management Principles) 45
  • 46.
