The article highlights the implications of globalisation as a process and shows how the ever expanding trends of consumerism create impediments for the ethical values in the realm of public administration. The social, economic and cultural capitals provide impetus for few to be functional in the established power structure whereas those who are devoid suffer. The reality of ethics in the subordinate many and superordinate few strategically becomes an incongruent reality which in turn abates the degree of social development. The crisis in ethics seems to have become so acute that cultural configuration of our society is constrained to gradually accept it which symbolically shows a strangthened force of dehumanisation. The self-realisation and pan-sensitisation are only capable tools to foster the ethics in public administration which is the need of the hour. - Reproduced.
