Scholarship is a multi-generational collective enterprise with a commitment to advancing knowledge, inspiring reflection, and facilitating stronger neighborhoods, cities and countries. This book explicitly adopts this lens as a recognition of the contributions of Prof. Terry Cooper to scholarship and practice, and as a mechanism to connect the past to the present and ultimately the future of scholarship in public ethics and citizen engagement. This "multi-generational" approach is designed to reveal the persistent and future ongoing need to engage as a scholarly and practitioner community with these questions. The book is broken into three main sections: citizenship and neighborhood governance, public service ethics and citizenship, and global explorations of citizenship and ethics. Unique in this collection is the explicit linkage across the main focus areas of citizenship and ethics, as well as the comparative and global context in which these issues are explored. Cases and data are examined from the United States, Chile, Thailand, India, China, Georgia, and Myanmar. Ultimately, it is made clear through each individual chapter and the collective whole that research on citizenship and ethics within public affairs and service has a rich history, remains critical to the strengthening of public institutions today, and will only increase in global significance in the years ahead.

Recenzii

Citizenship and Ethics underscores the importance of public ethics and civic engagement for public administration theory and practice. By revisiting, reflecting, and advancing Professor Cooper's landmark research, the contributors have demonstrated with great depth the various pathways to ethical decision making and citizen-centered collaborative public management in diverse policy domains and institutional contexts.
This volume of multi-generational scholarship in honor of Terry Cooper's work addresses two major governance challenges: how to restore ethical, competent public administration, based on a commitment to the public good; and how active partnerships between citizens and government lead to effective public policy. Amidst political efforts to disenfranchise voters and attack the administrative state, this is a much-needed scholarly and practical contribution to rebuilding trust in our public institutions and democratic governance.
A recent analysis of the public sector values identified in recent sample of 125 NASPAA self-study reports, suggests that at least 66% of them include Ethical Awareness and more than 50% in the subjects of Equity-Social Justice in their mission statements (Svara & Baizhanov, 2018). Certainly these programs, and others aspiring to reach that status, will find this edited volume a valuable resources in their assigned readings. Presenting perspectives from a variety of settings, and from various levels of government, with a particular focus on the importance of sub-national governments, these readings will enhance the attainment of new knowledge and competences. Clearly Prof. Cooper has stimulated a wide range of intellectual inquiry and awareness through his teaching and writings.
