Publisher Synopsis
It is difficult to find sufficiently comprehensive material on ethics in governance in a single volume that provides the basis for ethics education in universities or ethics training in the workplace. In Ethics Moments in Government: Cases and Controversies, Don Menzel has surpassed other efforts to date. This volume, conceived from the perspective of ethics practitioners in government rather than a scholar's theoretical preoccupations, truly provides a "one stop package for training, learning, and teaching." Its extraordinarily rich set of cases that are systematically cross indexed to concepts and problems, along with a CD containing a wide array of resource material, can equip any instructor with the essentials of an effective learning experience for those wrestling with the knotty problems of becoming and remaining ethically competent. I recommend it enthusiastically for both instructors in higher education and trainers dealing directly with practitioners. - Terry L. Cooper, Ph.D., The Maria B. Crutcher Professor in Citizenship and Democratic Values Director, Civic Engagement Initiative School of Policy, Planning, and Development, University of Southern California ... a marvelous addition to the resources on ethics in government. aThoughtful and engaging in style, the book draws the reader into a serious examination of what it means to be ethically competent. aThe wide ranging case studies are grounded in reality and supported by insightful assessments by scholars and officials. - James H. Svara, Professor, School of Public Affairs, Arizona State University The cases and practical analysis will help public administrators, new and experienced, achieve a level of ethical competency and ability to recognize the issues they face and develop the standards that define their character as public service professionals. -Edwin C. Daley, D.P.A., City Manager of Hopewell, Virginia, and the 2008 President of the International City/County Management Association Read more...
