description | is paper attempts to re-introduce the ideologies through historicizing the debates and then make a case
for their relevance in today’s public administration systems. Public administration in its dual nature of
being rst; a discipline of academic study and second; a eld of practice has indeed trekked a long journey
and has had its primary concern being that of how to ensure governments work better in the managing
public a airs. Undeniably, the need to promote administrative e ciency and e ectiveness has occupied the
minds of classical and contemporary scholars and practitioners in almost an equal measure. e concerns
of administrative e ciency and e ectiveness are debates which are as old as the discipline of public
administration itself but also the concerns of the long journey of the practices of public administration
have trekked the journey of civilization. While public administration and Governance scholars agree on the
need for building administrative systems which are e cient and e ective, there remains divergence views
on how the two can be promoted. ere are therefore a range of ideologies and benchmarks that have been
propounded that once followed could promote e ciency and e ectiveness of government. |
