Common Ground, Common Future Moral Agency In Public Administration, Professions, and Citizenship

Common Ground, Common Future: Moral Agency in Public Administration, Professions, and Citizenship examines the public and private roles of the citizen as a moral agent. The authors define this agent as a person who recognizes morality as a motive for action, and not only follows moral principles but also acknowledges morality as his or her principal. The book explains that public administration is a fundamentally moral enterprise that exists to serve the values that society considers significant, and that this moral nature makes public administration a prototype for other professions to emulate, a model of moral governance in American society.Garofalo, Charles is the author of 'Common Ground, Common Future Moral Agency In Public Administration, Professions, and Citizenship', published 2005 under ISBN 9780824753375 and ISBN 0824753372.
