In search of a public administration paradigm : is there anything to be learned from islamic public administration? - New York : Marcel Dekker, 1998
The intent of this work is to investigate and explore an alternative paradigm in public administration as the next millennium approaches. It provides an analysis of basic premises and principles of Islamic public administration through delineating the meta-values of Islam. These values dominate the philosophical underpinning of the paradigm and provide direction for the functioning of public institutions. This study also examines the practicality and feasibility of Islamic public administration (IPA) and its contribution to the present public administration discipline. It concludes with an evaluation of the viability of IPA as a future model in developmental public administration, especially in countries with a predominately Islamic culture.
