What is the
Minnowbrook conference at first place ?
A once-in-a-generation event held every twenty years, the
Minnowbrook conference brings together the top scholars in public
administration and public management to reflect on the state of the field and
its future.
Minnowbrook I (1968), II (1988), and III (2008) are watershed
events in the intellectual development of public administration.

Conference III
- This
conference took place during September, 2008. It was organised when American economy was
downgrading and global terrorism had shown its first effect.
- It
was chaired by Rosemary O’Leary.
Global Concerns :- global terrorism,
economy and ecological imbalances etc.
Participation :- This invited
participants from other countries as well hence it was global in approach
focussing upon global challenges and problems of Public Administration.
Main Focus : - Its focus was upon structural and functional
reforms or second generation reforms.
Concept originated : - It gave rise to the concept of 3 E's
- Economy, Efficiency and Effectiveness.
It was conducted in two phases.
The first phase was a
pre-conference phase. In this conference, the young and emerging scholars of
public administration were asked to contribute a five page critique of public
administration. Almost 56 proposals were accepted and considered. In this
conference, a single formal critique of public administration was not being
able to be developed rather a dozen of areas of concern in public
administration were identified such as
1. The
Academic-Practitioner Relationship
2. Democratic
Performance Management
3. Performance
measurement
4. Globalization
and International Perspective
5. Administrative
ethics and values
6. Information
technology and management
7. Methodology
and inter-disciplinary perspective
The second phase was conducted in a
round table format. It was a get-together of senior scholars. The scholars were
divided into various groups based on their areas of concern. Simultaneously, a
number of issues relating to public administration were discussed. Finally, three
major areas of emphasis were identified.
They are
1. It
emphasized on Comparative Studies. In this conference, it was acknowledged that
because of impact of LPG and IT, no system could be meaningfully studied in
isolation. The systems across the world are interconnected.
2. It
emphasized on Action Research and Methodological Pluralism. In this conference,
there was an agreement that for the study of Public Administration to be
meaningful, it is required that the teachings in Public Administration should
include the teachings on methodologies and tools and techniques to undertake
research. It was realized that a discipline will become more and more enriched
when there will be more R&D. If the students are more equipped with the
tools and techniques, they can independently carry out their own research. This
will provide a robust foundation for the study of the discipline. It also
emphasized that the findings of the research should be subjected to Peer
Review. It also recognized the importance of Multiple Approach or Multiple
viewpoints towards the study of public administration.
3. It
came out with a redefinition of public administration. According to this
conference, public administration is considered as a socially embedded process
of relationship, dialogue and action to promote human flourishing for all
Comparing it with Minnowbrook I &
II
- Minnowbrook
conference in 1968 and 1988 discussed the need for increasing RIGOUR and
RELEVANCE in Pub Ad while preserving its DIVERSITY and UNIQUE IDENTITY.
- The first
two conferences can well be characterised as a search for identity and
legitimacy as a separate field of study.
- By the THIRD
MINNOWBROOK CONFERENCE .....the crisis of IDENTITY was no LONGER a central
FOCUS . The discipline already had itzz own journals and trained
PROFESSIONALs nd SCHOLARs.
- Rather much
discussion focussed on DIVERSITY and infact many new scholars
participating for the first time pressed for more diversity in PERSPECTIVE
and SUBJECT MATTER !! .

Sotul meu s-a intors!!! După 1 an de căsnicie ruptă, soțul meu m-a lăsat cu doi copii și viața mea a fost spulberată. Am vrut să termin, aproape m-am sinucis pentru că ne-a lăsat fără nimic. Am fost rupt emoțional în tot acest timp și viața pare fără sens. Într-o zi fidelă, în timp ce navigam pe internet, am dat peste câteva mărturii despre Dr DAWN. Unii au mărturisit că și-a adus înapoi fostul, alții au mărturisit că restaurează uterul și vindecă afecțiunile cu ierburi. Pe mine m-a interesat mai mult împăcarea cu soțul meu, pe care dr. DAWN a făcut posibilă aducerea soțului meu înapoi în 3 zile. Acum soțul meu s-a întors și de atunci trăim fericiți. Toate mulțumim Dr. DAWN. Aici, las contactul lui pentru toată lumea. Căci are orice fel de provocări,
