ETHICS IN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION

Year 2008, Volume: 4 Issue: 7, 177 - 193, 01.06.2008

Abstract

In this study, the problematic of ethics in public administration is examined and seen that unethical behaviors in public administration have been common in every ages. In study, it is understood that the notion of “public interest”, which had been developed during the construction of modern public administration systems contributed to the improvement of the ideas of public administration ethics. At the begining of the twentieth century, codes of ethics in public administration were developed and it was believed that public workers would behave according to the public interests. The idea that the behaviors of public workers could be externally controlled formed the basis of this assumption. However, it had been seen that despite all the codes of ethics and rules, unethical behaviors increased during the 1970s. This developments increased the academic interests related to the public administration ethics. The study concludes that the sensitivity to ethics in public administration has inreased both at national and international levels and that the states have been struggling to prevent unethical behaviors

Kamu Yönetiminde Etik

Year 2008, Volume: 4 Issue: 7, 177 - 193, 01.06.2008

Abstract

Bu çalışmada kamu yönetiminde etik sorunsalı tarihsel bir perspektifle incelenmiş ve kamu yönetiminde etik dışı davranışların her dönem yaygın olduğu görülmüştür. Çalışmada, modern kamu yönetimi sistemlerinin inşa edilmesi sürecinde gelişme gösteren “kamu yararı” kavramının, kamu yönetimi etiği düşüncesinin gelişimine katkı sağladığı anlaşılmıştır. Yirminci yüzyılla birlikte, kimi ülke kamu yönetimi sistemlerinde etik kodların geliştirildiği ve bu yıllarda kamu çalışanlarının hiçbir sapma davranış göstermeden kamu yararı doğrultusunda eylemde bulunacakları yönünde bir düşünce kabul görmüştür. Bu kabulün merkezini, kamu çalışanlarının davranışlarının dışsal olarak belirlenebileceği oluşturmuştur. Oysa, tüm etik kodlama ve yasal yaptırımlara rağmen kamu yönetiminde etik dışı davranışların 1970’li yıllar boyunca hızlı bir artış eğilimine girdiği gözlenmiştir. Bu durum, kamu yönetimi etiği alanına yönelik akademik merakın artmasına yol açmıştır. Çalışmanın sonunda, kamu yönetiminde etik konusuna yönelik duyarlılığın ulusal sınırları aşıp, uluslararası bir nitelik kazandığı ve devletlerin, kamu yönetiminde etik dışı davranışların önlenmesi konusunda büyük çaba içerisine girdikleri görülmüştür.
