<br/><br/> The concept of public service motivation (PSM) was introduced more than three decades ago. Although the field continues to be dominated by research from the US and Western Europe, a growing number of studies utilise data from elsewhere, gradually expanding the geography of PSM. With this recent research, the field has started to answer the call of PSM’s founder (Perry, Citation2014) for more research into what he called “multi-incentive” settings, where the status of PSM is less clear due to historical and cultural factors.<br/>In the first systematic review of non-Western PSM scholarship, namely, research published outside the US, Western Europe, Australia, and New Zealand published in reputable English-language outlets, Van der Wal (Citation2015) appraised the state of the art and proposed a research agenda. This agenda contained three key areas: (1) cultural values and societal disposition, (2) distribution and interplay between different types of motivators, and (3) relations between PSM, public service ethos, and institutions in developing political economies.- Reproduced <br/><br/>https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/23276665.2023.2237619<br/>
