Abstract

The New Deal and the Great Society established the foundations for the public policy and administration of consumption and services. The United States has entered into a new international economic, technological, and demographic order in which the public policy and administration of investment will be increasingly important. The choices confronting public administration and the nation are moral as well as political and economic: What kind of nation will be bequeathed to the future? The United States needs a new ethic of public investment. The nation's future depends upon increased investment now in people, research and technology, the environment and public infrastructure, children in need, and public systems and the public service. Public administration as theory and practice can contribute to investment in the nation.
