Paperback. Condizione: Good. Bozeman challenges the dominance of the concept of economic individualism that drives policymaking and public management today, at the expense of consideration of the common good. Although public interest theory holds a venerable place in the larger tradition of political theory, dating back to Aristotle, since the 1950s it has generally been obscured by an emphasis on quantitative social sciences and an idealization of market values. Seeking to counterbalance both the philosophical and the more practical aspects of economic individualism, Bozeman develops the theories and concepts to show why indices of economic value are inadequate for so many instances of social choice and why public value should serve a larger role as a guide for public management. He argues that a pragmatic approach to public interest theory, an approach based on empiricism and deliberation, is not only satisfactory but likely to lead to useful outcomes. He explores, through the lens of public interest, the policy and management implications of various cases of privatization--Social Security, defense, water supplies, prisons, and local government--and of an extended case about genetically modified crops . Bozeman concludes by offering an alternative theory of public management, managing publicness, that restores the quest for fairness in the pursuit of public values as a starting point.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. Economic individualism and market-based values dominate today's policymaking and public management circles - often at the expense of the common good. In his new book, Barry Bozeman demonstrates the continuing need for public interest theory in government. "Public Values and Public Interest" offers a direct theoretical challenge to the "utility of economic individualism," the prevailing political theory in the western world. The book's arguments are steeped in a practical and practicable theory that advances public interest as a viable and important measure in any analysis of policy or public administration. According to Bozeman, public interest theory offers a dynamic and flexible approach that easily adapts to changing situations and balances today's market-driven attitudes with the concepts of common good advocated by Aristotle, Saint Thomas Aquinas, John Locke, and John Dewey. In constructing the case for adopting a new governmental paradigm based on what he terms "managing publicness," Bozeman demonstrates why economic indices alone fail to adequately value social choice in many cases.He explores the implications of privatization of a wide array of governmental services - among them Social Security, defense, prisons, and water supplies. Bozeman constructs analyses from both perspectives in an extended study of genetically modified crops to compare the policy outcomes using different core values and questions the public value of engaging in the practice solely for the sake of cheaper food. Thoughtful, challenging, and timely, "Public Values and Public Interest" shows how the quest for fairness can once again play a full part in public policy debates and public administration.…
