and priorities for the public sector in Europe
The public sector in our society has
over the past two decades undergone substantial changes, as has the academic
field studying Public Administration (PA). In the next twenty years major
shifts are further expected to occur in the way futures are anticipated and different
cultures are integrated. Practice will be handled in a relevant way, and more
disciplines will be engaging in the field of Public Administration.
