In an attempt to inculcate values for the Civil Services by provoking them to think and debate on ethical issues, the book deals with issues in moral philosophy in the context of Civil Services and the values it must aspire to as there are heavier responsibilities in a modernising democracy of India’s size. It examines in detail the aptitudes of civil servants and foundational values of public service in India. It probes ethical concerns, dilemma and probity issues in governance in the context of declining moral values, accountability ethics and corruption in public administration. It presents numerous case studies that take into account the ethos of transparency that is emerging, new codes of conduct and work culture of service delivery in government offices and the corporate world that are increasingly being stressed. It discusses the way to identify the right attitudes and discover problem-solving approaches when dealing with social conflicts.
