Aims and scope
Administrative Theory & Praxis is a leading quarterly journal for critical, normative, or interpretive scholarship focused on various aspects of public administration theory, governance, and management. ATP, the official journal of the Public Administration Theory Network, offers a unique forum to contest or affirm public administration orthodoxies, advance alternative approaches to administrative theory and practice, and examine ethical, democratic, and social justice issues in the field. ATP welcomes manuscripts that situate public administration within broader social, economic, cultural, political, and historical contexts; introduce new theories, frameworks, and literatures; or develop challenging, thought-provoking philosophical arguments about the field. The editors encourage communication about possible manuscripts, symposia, book and media reviews, or Dialogue commentary.
