Special Issue on 

Public Administration and Politics


Public Administration and Politics examines the interaction between governance structures, administrative practices, and political processes in shaping public policy and societal development. It covers a wide range of topics including institutional design, policy implementation, bureaucratic accountability, leadership, public sector reforms, democratic governance, and the role of political institutions in addressing social, economic, and environmental challenges. The issue also explores contemporary debates such as transparency, citizen participation, digital governance, and the impact of globalization on public administration. By integrating theoretical perspectives with empirical research, this special issue aims to provide deeper insights into how administrative systems and political dynamics work together to promote effective, inclusive, and responsive governance in diverse contexts.
