Features: This book provides a comprehensive introduction and analysis of the basic process of the emergence and development of administrative ethics in the United States, as well as some fundamental perspectives on administrative ethics from American scholars. The theories covered are extensive. The author vividly illustrates the code of conduct for U.S. government officials, the theoretical foundations guiding these principles, and the formulation and implementation of these principles, while also analyzing some experiences and lessons learned by U.S. government departments in combating corruption. Corruption within government departments has been a universal issue throughout history and across cultures. Understanding the theories and practices, as well as the experiences and lessons learned from Western scholars and government departments in this regard, will be beneficial for our future research on administrative ethics and administrative system reform, enabling us to draw on diverse strengths, think ahead, and achieve the goal of building a clean government.
