| Summary, etc. |
Education program plays an important part in transmitting public administration knowledge to future administrators. What constitutes the "core" knowledge is presumably determined by societal expectations. Using public administration education in Taiwan as an example, this study finds that there exists a "crisis of identity" which concerns the proper role of administrators -- generalists vs. specialists. Public administration education program in Taiwan, oriented toward a liberal arts education, has failed, according to some, to provide well trained and qualified students for the public services. The current education programs have resulted in a disjointed process in which the diffusion of public administration knowledge is discontinuous. - Reproduced |
