Features: This book is a collection of essays by Gerald Keldewey, a renowned international administrative scholar. The author explores the theme of administrative ethics with a broad perspective, offering serious and insightful analyses and critiques of administrative culture, government behavior, administrative corruption, and anti-corruption efforts in the United States and many other countries. The 20 essays included in this book raise thought-provoking questions, such as whether administrative corruption is an accident or an exception in administrative behavior, why many anti-corruption efforts are merely superficial and yield minimal results, and why bureaucratic corruption is so difficult to eradicate. These issues are somewhat universal across the world. The publication of this book helps Chinese readers understand the administrative corruption problems and the series of anti-corruption measures adopted in developed countries and some developing countries abroad, as well as the representative views and research methods of Western scholars in the field of administrative ethics.
