Public Service in the Pandemic Era: A COVID Commentary

In: Public administration review: PAR, Band 82, Heft 2, S. 354-358

Abstract

AbstractThis viewpoint reflects on basic aspects of American public health and politics that are making the COVID crisis response less effective than it might be. The performance of public service during a crisis depends as much on self‐reflectiveness and hope as on the achievement of measurable results. Anthony Fauci is offered as an exemplar of authentic public service, understood as "living within the truth."
