WORKING PRINCIPLES OF MODERN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION

Abstract

The paper sublimes major theoretical tenets that determine the
working principles of modern public administration. The authors
neither hunt, nor pretend to discover the "absolute truth" about the
best way in which the public administration should work, but they try
to aggregate the most important principles that should form the
foundations of the public sector in contemporary conditions. On one
hand, they discuss introducing market mechanisms in the work of
public administration, following to the pattern of the operation of the
private sector, but on the other hand, they do not forget the importance
of the state and its regulation in the overall functioning of the public
sector.
