Yet

Going
forward
,
seven
key
concerns
stand
at
the
forefront
of
possible
progress
in
public
administration
theory
and
practice
.
That
progress
is
important
to
the
robust
health
of
government
,
and
therefore
to
society
,
but
only
if
it
is
salient
to
the
public
and
its
media
and
political
surrogates
.
Government
at
all
levels
,
increasingly
challenged
in
the
United
States
and
many
other
countries
,
must
address
at
least
seven
core
concerns
if
the
civil
society
is
not
to
become
hopelessly
contentious
and
fragmented
.
The
,
and
the
basic
underlying
concern
,
is
a
public
trust
.
In
an
era
of
declining
public
trust
,
the
public
sector
faces
the
challenge
of
re
-
establishing
its
legitimacy
in
the
minds
of
perhaps
half
of
our
citizens
.
Although
the
recent
pandemic
-
economic
-
related
crises
have
reaffirmed
the
importance
of
government
in
existential
terms
,
the
long
-
term
trend
has
been
one
of
declining
trust
for
at
least
five
decades
.
trust
is
the
"
glue
"
or
cement
for
governing
societies
,
conferring
upon
government
its
basic
source
of
power
.
In
contrast
,
dissatisfaction
,
disenchantment
,
and
distrust
can
undermine
that
legitimacy
.
A
trust
deficiency
,
,
undermines
the
ability
of
governments
to
perform
,
to
deliver
services
promised
in
their
founding
documents
,
their
legislation
,
their
agency
mission
statements
,
and
their
oaths
of
office
.

governments

the
case
when
the
increased
use
of
nongovernmental
actors
(
the
private
sector
and
NGOs
)
to
deliver
public
services
gives
rise
to
doubts
as
to
the
very
concept
of
governance
.
While
much
of
the
New
Public
Management
movement
was
designed
to
"
restore
"
trust
in
government
better
productivity
and
performance
,
the
blurring
of
the
distinction
the
public
and
private
sectors
may
paradoxically
create
more
distrust
,
as
citizens
become
confused
to
who
represents
their
interests
,
where
to
register
requests
and
complaints
,
and
why
they
are
paying
fees
on
top
of
taxes

How
might
the
public
sector
reestablish
its
legitimacy
?
Legitimacy
is
the
acceptance
acquiescence
of
the
government
(
and
its
public
servants
)
the
people
in
terms
of
both
necessary
and
preferred
services
.
trust
is
affected
by
a
number
of
factors
:
"
how
"
public
services
are
delivered
,
the
performance
of
public
sector
agencies
indelivering
those
services
,
the
level
and
type
of
participation
by
citizens
,
and
the
flow
of
information
government
its
citizens

Are

accountability

government
?
And
are
we
extending

ethical
principles
to

governmental
partners

Why
do
states
exempt

facets
of
their

from
transparency
laws

Drivers
of
transparency
exemptions
should
be
questioned
,
including
economic
development
competition
states
;
and
conflicts
between
reform
initiatives
and
agency
goals
.
The

these
factors

greater
likelihood
that
trust
will
rebound
.
