Description

Argues for refocusing attention on publicness and the critical exploration of underlying assumptions that are foundational to the study and practice of public affairs.We live in an era where many citizens feel increasingly uncertain about their futures having to deal with stagnant wages globalization and wealth and income inequality while at the same time policymakers appear unable or unwilling to reach any viable policy consensus on a wide range of major issues. Public Affairs and Democratic Ideals addresses these vexing conditions and the challenge they pose for public management and administration. Curtis Ventriss argues for reordering intellectual and policy priorities with a focus on publicness and the role of critical democratic thought in public affairs. Too often the assumptions that underlie the prevailing theory and practice of addressing major political and economic problems remain unquestioned with economic and political conflicts displaced into issues of administration and leadership. Ventriss calls for a reinvigorated notion of publicness based in part on a public social science civic experimentation and policies designed and tailored to the unique needs of various publics. As a way to move forward this book offers ideas for redefining professionalism promoting civic initiatives and rethinking professional education for public service.
