This lecture seeks to place South Africa and its institutions of higher learning, in the fields of public management and administration, in the context of global competition and national development. As the country is undergoing structural changes in its political economy and also in its system of governing as well as governance, a major responsibility is placed on scholars of public management and administration to advance the public sector and the country through relevant pedagogical approaches and effective research
