M .O. Obimpeh and J.A. Dankwa. Public administration – public management interface: how different is the “management” from the “administration”? Internet: (adapted)
Text CB1A2-I
The quest for universal administrative standards to
promote the effective application of public laws and policies
gave birth to the field of public administration. Woodrow Wilson
argued for a distinction between politics and administration,
arguing that the former was more concerned with democracy,
justice, and equality, while the latter was more concerned with
efficiency, as he postulated that “administration lies beyond the
proper domain of politics; administrative questions are not
political questions” (Wilson, 1887).
According to Waldo (1948), the means and measurements
of efficiency were the same for all administrations: democracy, if
it were to survive, could not afford to ignore the lessons of
centralization, hierarchy and discipline. Bureaucracy as an
organisational type has seen its heyday in the field of public
administration, owing to Woodrow Wilson’s Transfer of
Administrative Principles.
That notwithstanding, the field has gone through
paradigmatic evolution over time by a quest for management
paradigm derived from the discipline of business administration.
The management approach is said to hold the promise of future
public sector reform, replacing the administrative approach
traditionally provided by public administration. A new concept
arises when the management perspective is combined with an
emphasis on the public sector: public management.
Courses and programmes, as well as whole academic
institutions and colleges, are adapting by switching from the term
“public administration” to “public management”. Considering
the growing demands for efficiency in the public sector, the
transition from a public administration to a public management
framework seems to be the right step.

I have always quite irrationally prided myself on my good health, for I have only occasionally had to take
a day off work when I have had a cold.
So I was quite offended by my doctor who, when we ran into each other in the street one day, took
one look at me and told me that I was definitely overweight and that if I did not make an effort to lose some
weight, I could expect to have a heart attack before very long. He added that, like many middle-aged men,
I led a completely sedentary life: I sat behind my office desk during the day and relaxed in my armchair in
the evening with my eyes firmly fixed on the television set.
It was true that I had been getting fatter, but this had not worried me much, for I simply attributed
it to the fact that I was getting older.
My doctor advised me to go on a diet immediately, so I tried cutting down on fattening foods, such as potatoes and butter, but without any visible signs of success, for my trouble is that I am very fond of my
food and besides, my wife is an excellent cook. I then decided that it was all a question of exercise, and for
this year’s holiday, I was determined to go somewhere which was conducive to taking exercise and not to
our usual seaside resort, where one is tempted to simply go down to the beach and lie in the sun. (In other
words – L.G. Alexander and Catherine Wilson).
