Ethics and accountability have become important themes for modern
government, as in most of the countries there is a severe crisis of
legitimacy. Increasingly there is a feeling that performance
management alone will not solve this crisis. Citizens also expect
from politicians and public servants ethical responsible conduct.
As to the ethics, however, there is a problem. Governance and new
public management have raised new problems which cannot be solved
by referring to the traditional bureaucratic ethics. Devolution and
decentralisation processes have enhanced the responsibility of
public servants. The increase of transparency and openness and the
service orientation of public organisations have challenged the
traditional values of discretion and equality before the rule. The
growing interaction between the public and the private sector have
raised the question of integrity. In light of these developments,
it is important to update the ethical system, or reversibly, the
traditional values of the public service can question some actual
evolutions in government.
