Abstract Previous research has studied the factors that impact the way individuals perceive leaders. This study aimed to extend previous leadership research by (1) examining the rating disparities of black and white leaders in an agency and (2) basing the ratings on agency levels of corruption. No such study was found to use government as a context or corruption as a measure. The results from the survey experiment indicate that when leaders performed very well in terms of lowering corruption, white respondents perceived the corruption efforts of the leader with a white sounding name higher than the leader with a black sounding name, while black respondents perceived the corruption efforts of the leader with a black sounding name higher. Black and white sounding names were used as a proxy for the leader’s ethnicity. However, when corruption increased under the leaders’ tenure, neither black nor white respondents differed in how they perceived leaders with white and black sounding names. Thus, respondents only exhibited implicit leadership bias when leaders performed very well.

Abstract In the previous introduction to this special issue, we presented the new 4Es, empathy, equity, engagement, and ethics. These 4Es represent an evolution in public administration, replacing economy, efficiency, and effectiveness as central pillars of the field. Through these 4Es, we propose a movement towards a more equitable public administration, which meets the needs of the future of public administration. In this introduction to the second part of this special issue, we explore the research and teaching implications of the 4Es. Through this discussion and along with our articles in this special issue, we provide guidance on the use of the 4Es in public administration teaching, education, and practice.

Abstract With growing discussion and action around inequality, climate change, and a global pandemic, do the current pillars of public administration, economy, efficiency, and effectiveness, also known as the 3Es, meet the needs of the public administration? We propose that there are new pillars which better respond to 21st century problems in ways not addressed through values of efficiency, effectiveness, and economy. In this article, we will explore these new 4Es (empathy, engagement, equity, and ethics) in more depth, as well as articles in the first half of this double special issues on the topic. Through this article and special issue, we are eager to move the field of public administration forward towards creating more engaged, empathetic, equitable, and ethical public and nonprofit organizations.

Abstract In higher education, power structures, including anti-Black racism, perpetuate whiteness and thwart the full capability of human potential for Black Americans. The aggregate impact of anti-Black racism, a specific form of racism, potentiates the marginalization of Black Americans. While Black intellectuals have a distinct role to play in dismantling systems of oppression, gatekeepers protect hegemonic systems that perpetuate the status quo and mute Black voices. Critical race theory (CRT) serves as a lens for confronting America’s racist past and provides a mechanism for addressing systems that perpetuate inequities. CRT is a theoretical framework useful in designing approaches to dismantling structural racism and counterbalancing dominant paradigms, each foundational to developing a new social contract with Black Americans. This article presents a community building model to support the advancement of ethical public service in complex social environments. The ADORE model is a strategic framework for academic institutions to (A) acknowledge harm, welcome (D) diverse perspectives, accept (O) ownership and (R) responsibility for systemic change, and garner the (E) energy to sustain progress. The model centers agape and radical self-love as integral components to intentionally dismantle anti-Black racism in public institutions.

Abstract Adam Ferguson (1723–1816) was a representative of the Scottish Enlightenment and a keen observer of modern commercialism. This article considers his account of corruption in his Essay on the History of Civil Society in order to contribute to a fuller understanding of corruption and its sources. According to Ferguson, modern commercial institutions generate a peculiar form of corruption by privileging private fortune over public virtue as a means of distinction between citizens. Ferguson's view sheds light on the contradictions of contemporary democratic capitalism and has, for this reason, some justification to serve as a mirror image of our present-day circumstances. In particular, Ferguson’s concept of corruption can serve as a starting point for developing a concept of corruption that overcomes the dichotomy between narrowly individualist and overly broad structural understandings of the phenomenon.

Abstract This article examines the contours of “the public’s morality(ies)”, either as an aggregate of individuals’ public hopes and fears or (in the plural) as particular mixes of hopes and fears stemming from individual (or coalitional) moral convictions. Our theoretical understanding of one aggregate “public morality” relies upon Derek Edyvane’s presentation of a civic virtue premised upon an austerity whereby citizens value a collective sense of protection as highly as the realization of their individual public aspirations. We scrutinize Edyvane’s theoretical construct in reference to a collection of citizen letters responding to Gerald Ford’s 1974 pardon of Richard Nixon made available by the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library. These letters illustrate a conceptual typology of public morality that reflects various combinations of the public hopes and fears Edyvane delineates; this typology accommodates most of the available letters. Psychological studies pertaining to prosocial behavior, individual moral convictions, and conspiracy beliefs are reviewed to understand sectarian fears that animate current political discourse. In this regard, we offer examples of political utterances appearing to fall outside Edyvane’s treatment of public fears. A final discussion considers how citizen fears arising from disparate moral convictions affect administrative decision-making. It also directs attention to behavioral public administration that offers a micro-level perspective on individual behavior that impacts governance.

Abstract As part of Thailand’s ongoing administrative reform, the objective of this study is to identify appropriate transparency measures for the public sector. Constructing a conceptual framework based on David Heald's anatomy of transparency complexity and Bauhr & Grimes’ study, as well as practices widely accepted around the world in countries such as the United States of America, Thailand FOIA, and transparency assessment tools in Thailand, to derive appropriate measures for assessing transparency practices in Thai public agencies with regard to the term's foundation, applicability in practice, and comprehensibility. The author provides seven primary indices for evaluating the transparency of Thai government agencies.
