Public administration is not a mature science with a single and static principle. On the other hand, as the definition attached to it, public administration is responsible for sustaining the reality of public affairs. The epistemology of public administration was born from a historical nature in political philosophy; in its journey, the breadth of the dynamics search for forms, rational truth values, and debates to embrace its existence in public affairs. Riccucci in Yang (2007) explains that so far, there is no paradigmatic basis that coherently regulates the praxis of public administration research. Riccucci’s primary focus is not on the operationalization of the method (Yang, 2007). Riccucci critically traces the question of the substantial irrelevance of the theory. The factual background of the findings and different interpretations becomes an important reference for reconciliation and the narrative of developing public administration theory. On the other hand, at the bottom up pole, the epistemology of public administration will continue to develop, inspired by the results of repeated examinations, contributions from various research, and the integration of different disciplines. In another section, Riccucci (2010) reiterates that epistemology and ontology public administration rests on human existence; there is almost no certainty of reduction as natural and physical knowledge. Riccucci deeply argues that science and the art of public administration are not fragmented. Both are intertwined from long practice as exercises amid a dynamic reality. Apart from the debate ‘which priority choice is confirmed first between theory and method?’, the development of overlapping thoughts forms the flexibility of approaches in understanding the epistemology of public administration. This diverse approach underlies the writing of this review essay that the epistemology of public administration is not singular. The epistemology of public administration is a long series of dialectics whose development is endless. The nature of public administration can only be approached with interpretations, as the truthiness version of Plato and Aristotle. The truthiness has no original and authentic form other than a predictive approach. However, the epistemology of public administration has a clear goal of weaving meta perspectives into harmony. These two books directly add to a series of attribution ideas for developing the epistemology of public administration. Instead of deconstructing the ontology, these two books dissect the discourse embedded in the epidermis of contemporary public administration ideas and then examine the possibilities of epistemological support from multidisciplinary elements. The concept of public administration adapted from linguistic thinking to contemporary visual communication studies. This review essay relates to two books that carry the nuances of discourse interrelation, complementing the epistemology of public administration as well as

Political leaders articulate themselves best via speeches and/or writings across diverse media (print or electronic) for campaigning, pitching their stand, confronting the opponent/s, impressing upon the citizens, penning down their biographies, and the like. While making speeches, politicians evince provocative sentiments themselves that are likely to move the audience-that is the prime objective of any orator. Concomitantly, however, the politicians make speeches charged with emotions to drive home a point. The present study seeks to hinge itself upon the speeches of Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy, the Ukrainian President, who is embroiled in a war with Russia since February 2022. Specifically, sentiment analysis was done to understand the dynamics of emotions that wavered with the progress of war. Computational text analysis of speeches for a specified period (24 February 2022 until 24 July 2022) shows that sentiments appear to increase over a period of time wherein the best predictor, in our Bayesian regression models, for a change in Zelenskyy’s sentiment between today and tomorrow is his “present” sentiment-the sentiment that he evinces “today.” Implicitly, if we detect a high/low positive sentiment “today,” we would expect to see a strong mean regression such that tomorrow’s sentiment should be close to neutral. Findings suggest that in contrast with the general observation that peculiar war events tend to have great power in explaining changes in sentiments, the same was found only to be an ancillary factor in the present study. The study is rounded off with further research pointers with practitioner implications.
