This book seeks to offer both the depth demanded by graduate courses in administrative ethics and the accessibility necessary for an undergraduate introduction to public administration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWilliam Richter and Frances Burke have gathered an excellent set of materials—many of them new in this edition—focused on an important set of ethical issues that confront citizens in the United States and abroad. I expect the readings to stimulate spirited discussion in the classroom—and in the wider world, where pressures to shade the truth and to seek personal profit, while undermining the public trust, can seem at times overwhelming. -- Jameson W. Doig, Princeton University\u003cbr\u003eThe book may find its greatest use in public administration classes and as a resource for Human Resources trainers. The thoughtful introductory essays and the careful editing of the readings to eliminate the unnecessary will also make the book inviting to any public administrators who wish to reflect upon and improve their profession in addition to working in it. * Forum *\u003cbr\u003eBurke and Richter, in revising their first edition of Combating Corruption, Encouraging Ethics, have put together a first-rate compendium of ethical and moral insights. They juxtapose classical analyses of virtue and prudent public behavior with contemporary problems in a way that encourages students to engage these important ethical issues. The issues they raise in the text are as old as Aristotle and as new as 9\/11, and the carefully chosen scholarly analyses and case studies challenge students to think for themselves. If you want a comprehensive survey of ethics and public service, this is it. -- James Pfiffner, George Mason University\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart 1 Ethical Foundations: Virtue, Consequence, Principle Chapter 2 Virtue, Habit, and Ethics Chapter 3 On Virtue Chapter 4 The Prince Chapter 5 Utilitarianism Chapter 6 Principle:  The Categorical Imperative Chapter 7 The Ethical Triangle Chapter 8 Case 1: Gyges' Ring Chapter 9 Discussion Questions Chapter 10 For Further Exploration Part 11 Responsibility and Accountability Chapter 12 The Study of Administration Chapter 13 Politics as a Vocation Chapter 14 The Friedrich-Finer Debate: Public Policy and Nature of Administrative Responsibility Chapter 15 The Friedrich-Finer Debate: Administrative Responsibility in Democratic Government Chapter 16 Ethics and the Public Service Chapter 17 Accountability and Abuses of Power in World Politics Chapter 18 Case 2: Following Orders Chapter 19 Discussion Questions Chapter 20 For Further Exploration Part 21 Twenty-First Century Challenges: Global Dimensions\/Changing Boundaries Chapter 22 The New Public Administrator Chapter 23 Megaprojects and Risk Chapter 24 The World We Could Win Chapter 25 The CAUX Round Table Principles Chapter 26 Balance Between Electronic Access and Privacy Rights Chapter 27 Case 3: Integrity at the United Nations Chapter 28 Discussion Questions Chapter 29 For Further Exploration Part 30 Understanding Fraud, Waste, and Corrupt Practices Chapter 31 An Organizational Perspective on Corruption Chapter 32 Corruption and Governance Chapter 33 What is Corruption?
