245 _aTheoretical foundations of ethics in public administration" approaches to understanding moral action
520 _aEthical action in public administration needs to be informed by more than human intuitions. To make correct intritive judgements about right and wrong decision makers can be guided by moral philosophy. The work of three philosophers, R.M. Hare, John Rawls, and Alasdair Maclntyre, are considered in this regard; the strengths and weaknesses of each, as applied to public administration, are assessed. Implications for scholarship and teaching in administrative ethics are considered. - Reproduced
