Public Administration ReviewSummary: Is public administration at risk of losing in theoretical distinctiveness as a discipline of study and practice; and if so, is this cause for concern? Ronald C. Moe and Robert S. Gilmour examine these questions and respond in the affirmative. The not-so-gradual retreat of public administrationists from their discipline's intellectual tradition in public law has left them vulnerable to the appeals of those promoting generic behavioural principles of management as taught in schools of business. The principles are rooted in public law and provide a basic theoretical framework through which the administrative state can be effectively managed
