Public Organizations–Where the Social is the Business

Publications: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingBook chapterResearchpeer-review

Abstract

This chapter reflects on the meaning of business and on its relevance to the public sector. Many people do not link public organizations with business. But business originally means to be troubled and to care enough about something to take action. For this reason, the social is the business of the public organization.
