Abstract
Over the last 30 years significant efforts have been made to ensure that Public Administration: An International Quarterly lives up to its international title. In this review article, we highlight some of the key research articles that have been published by the journal which illustrate an international approach to the study of public administration. We show how the journal’s historical inclusion of a diverse spectrum of philosophies, methodologies, theories and contexts has contributed to this internationalization. In doing so the journal has contributed to our understanding of equity, social justice and inclusion; ethics, public value and corruption; networks, governance and participation; and environmental governance and crisis management. This historical review also reveals how global challenges, particularly as a consequence of the climate emergency, drive the transnationalization of public administration, which in turn requires further international scholarship.
概要
過去30年間、『Public Administration: An International Quarterly』では、その誌名に相応しいジャーナルであるべく、国際化に向けて大きな努力が払われてきた。本総説では、このジャーナルから出版された行政学研究への国際的アプローチを示す論文のいくつかに焦点を当てながら、ジャーナルがその歴史の中で、多様な哲学、手法、理論、文脈を包摂しつつ、国際化が進んできたことを説明する。また、①公平性、社会正義、インクルージョン、②倫理、公共価値、腐敗、③ネットワーク、ガバナンス、参画、④環境ガバナンスと危機管理の4つのテーマにおいて、ジャーナルが国際化をすすめながら、我々の理解を深めてきたことを論ずる。さらに、本歴史的総説は、特に気候非常事態のような世界的な課題が行政の多国籍化を後押しし、それによって、国際的な学識がさらに求められている状況を指摘する。
