Abstract This paper explores the interactions between theory and practice and between discipline and profession in the public administration and management community. It argues that it is unhelpful to seek hegemony for either concept or domain in these dyads. Rather it argues for a praxis ecosystem approach that explores the interactions between these elements. It argues that tension and conflict within the praxis ecosystem is natural and to be expected—and may well drive forward both theory and practice and the discipline and profession. The key task with the ecosystem is thus to govern these tensions rather than seek to eradicate them. It ends by exploring what this approach means in practice for praxis ecosystems.

Abstract While scientific knowledge has become valuable in creating national and global policies, the influence of Public Administration knowledge may be perceived as limited and thus not meaningful. This study aimed to understand the epistemological and methodological antecedents for meaningful knowledge about public administration. It departed from two assumptions, namely that of a social ontology of a complex, emerging and socially constructed public administration reality, and that of the co-situatedness of scholars, administrators, politicians and citizens in the public administration reality. The current study has shown that a situated knowledge quest for this reality implies, firstly, an extended epistemology to recognize and consider all forms of tangible and non-tangible knowledge about public administration within relevant contexts. Secondly, it implies an interscience methodology drawing from multi- and transdisciplinary traditions for comprehensive knowledge about public administration within relevant contexts. Meaningful knowledge about public administration can influence public policy only if (a) it is consistent with the social ontology of this reality, (b) it is of value for the situated and interconnected knowledge stakeholders, (c) this emerging, irreducible and complex reality is explored through an extended epistemology, and (d) results from a methodology of interscience and complex thinking.

Abstract When theorizing, it is sometimes colloquially said “I reckon…” This essay attempts to reckon with theorizing by proposing a heuristic for systematically gauging rigorous and/or meaningful theoretical research with the analysis of eight factors: novelty, challenge, relevance, power, fecundity, usefulness, deliberateness, and clarity. These factors offer a manual for theorists writing theoretical research, and a loose set of considerations to begin discussions of what it is that makes invigorating theory.

Abstract In this essay, we argue that orthodox theory—mainstream knowledge deemed legitimate and universal—in fact originates from a very specific time and place, from a very specific type of individual. The archetypical orthodox theorist is a White, Western European Christian man from the Enlightenment period. Epistemic silencing universalizes his views as “modern thought” without considering the actual narrowness of its origins. We define and discuss epistemic racism and sexism and end with ideas about how scholars and practitioners can employ practices to dismantle knowledge hierarchies. We take as given the epistemic silencing that Candler, Azevedo, and Albernaz (2010) reveal in public administration research and argue that theory still has an important role to continue exposing epistemic silencing. This represents the ongoing and unfinished business of theory: To continue exploring insights from across the social sciences to inform and illuminate public administration’s path.

Abstract Contemporary policymaking has been characterized by both a progressive state involvement in the internationalization of domestic policies and the intensification of influence of global agendas which demand that states implement new practices posed by multilateral agencies. Policy transfer literature has focused on different aspects of actors’ agency, but there is lack of knowledge about the microdynamics of state capacities that enable policy transfer. At the same time, the capacity literature has paid little attention to the transnationalization of public action. This paper undertakes a theoretical discussion engaging the two literatures and proposes an analytical model to examine policy transfer capacity.

Abstract As the fight against COVID-19 marked its second anniversary in March, collaboration gained attention as a tool for preparedness and response. Most collaborative models derive from industrialized countries, and coverage in outlets remains focused on the Global North. To complement existing studies, the article asks how collaboration looks like in a development setting. It analyzes the policies of Global South countries, focusing on Africa, where the pandemic is shifting. By exploring responses there and highlighting complexities that familiar governing paths struggle to resolve, it posits whether the pandemic could spur change. It concludes by discussing lessons and suggesting ways to improve collaboration.
