Unmasking Administrative Evil

The relationship between evil and public affairs, as well as other fields and professions in public life, has come to the fore as institutions of government seek new ways to operate in an environment of extreme mistrust. Unmasking Administrative Evil, 6th Edition argues that the tendency toward administrative evil, as manifested in acts of dehumanization and genocide, is deeply woven into the identity of public affairs. Indeed, ordinary people may simply act appropriately in their organizational role-in essence, just doing what those around them would agree they should be doing-and at the same time, participate in what a critical and reasonable observer, usually well after the fact, would call evil. Even worse, under conditions of moral inversion, ordinary people can all too easily engage in acts of administrative evil while believing that what they are doing is not only correct, but in fact, good. This timely sixth edition offers important updates, including: Each chapter-except for Chapter 3 on the Holocaust-has been updated and revised, weaving in more recent literature and highlighting contemporary scholarship that draws on the concept of administrative evil; An expanded discussion of the War on Terror in Chapter 4, extending its legacy from 2001 into the current moment, with particular attention to how it has shaped immigration and customs enforcement under the second Trump Administration; A deeper exploration of how administrative evil is embedded in public policy in Chapter 5, drawing on recent literature on administrative racism and how the social construction of the "other" through language becomes encoded in and reproduced by public policy; A thoroughly updated Chapter 6, which focuses on the Flint Water Crisis, with a new section examining what has unfolded in the decade since a state of emergency was declared; A fully revised Chapter 7, now featuring more detailed treatment of generative AI, private prisons, and other related issues; The addition of nonviolent action as a fourth approach to ethical responses in Chapter 8, complementing putting cruelty first, deliberative democratic praxis, and virtue ethics. Laying the groundwork for a more ethical and democratic public life - one that recognizes its potential for evil and avoids state-sponsored dehumanization and destruction - Unmasking Administrative Evil, 6th Edition is required reading for all students of administrative ethics and public service ethics, as well as those in other administrative sciences.

Community Development and Public Administration Theory

The concept of community development is often misunderstood, holding different meanings across different academic disciplines. Moreover, the concept of community development has been historically abstracted, not only in the way the concept has been conceptualized in academic studies, but also by the way in which practitioners use the term in the vernacular. Departing from traditional definitions of community development, this volume applies the New Public Service (NPS) perspective of Public Administration to community development to illustrate how public administrators and public managers can engage in community development planning and implementation that results in more equitable and sustainable long-term outcomes. This book will be of interest to practitioners and researchers in public administration/management, public administration theory, community development, economic development, urban sociology, urban politics, and urban planning.¿
