ISBN: 0817315845 ISBN-13: 9780817315849 Publisher: University Alabama Press OUR PRICE: $33.20 Product Type: Hardcover Published: October 2007 Annotation: "Justice and Administration" is an ambitious effort to grapple with justice as a theoretical component of the practice of public administration, yet with sufficient theoretical power to be meaningful in philosophy, political studies, and sociology. The time is ripe for such an effort, as the questions that gather under the labels of modernity, the postmodern and critical theory now transcend a single discipline. The work of John Rawls on justice in public life has had a generation of influence on scholarship, and this work seems to have a high degree of likelihood of making meaningful statements on these questions in the field. |
