Summary |
Chris McInerny explores the relationship between public administration and social justice in Ireland. He argues that public administration, at a variety of levels, is challenged to consider its unique and potentially far-reaching role in designing and delivering social justice outcomes. Locating this discussion within recent social and economic events in Ireland, he draws on a variety of historical and contemporary sources to stimulate reflection on social justice and its relationship with public administration and public policy. |
