Philippine Journal of Public AdministrationSummary: In scope and purpose, globalization transcends national boundaries. Mainstream concepts of globalization focus on macro and microeconomic phenomena. At the same time, it is recognized that globalization brings about political, social and cultural transformation. However, spectacular breakthroughs in science, technology and information accelerated the process. The era of globalization has been the surge of nationalism in many parts of the globe. As the planet shrinks into a global village and as borders disappear, it is believed that nationalism will become irrelevant. Nevertheless, nationalism should serve as the guiding principle in dealing with globalization in order for the latter to serve the national interest. The theory and practice of public administration in the Philippines is profoundly affected by globalization. It is imperative to review existing theories of public administration in terms of their relevance and responsiveness to current developments particularly the process of globalization. Changes in the practice of public administration are such that theoreticians and academics are hardly able to monitor, much less keep pace with simultaneous developments on a global, regional and national scale. - Reproduced
