The public interest standard is as relevant for assessing ethics in public organizations today as it ever was. Despite signs suggesting diminishing opportunities for participatory government, the soul of the public interest in a modern state can be found in the communication between citizens, clients, and bureaucrats. Using texts from contemporary political philosophy, this book explores the communicative foundations of the public interest standard.
