Meet the New Es
With growing discussion and action around inequality, climate change, and a global pandemic, do the current pillars of public administration, economy, efficiency, and effectiveness, also known as the 3Es, meet the needs of the public administration? We propose that there are new pillars which better respond to 21st century problems in ways not addressed through values of efficiency, effectiveness, and economy. In this article, we will explore the…

What Does It Mean to Be a “Man” or a “Woman” in the Twenty-First Century? An Ethical Imperative for Public Administration
What is the Ethical Impact of Gender Non-Conforming Names
Names? What is in a name? This article endeavors to investigate what is in a name. Names are an important part of an individual’s identity. Names, depending on one’s culture, defines and identifies an individual. How an individual obtains a name, who names the individual, be it the father or mother of a newborn, or even grandparents, has a lifetime impact on the named individual. There are implications when naming a newborn at birth because the n…
Symposium Introduction
Invisible Populations and the # MeToo Movement
The #MeToo movement has done a great deal to address sexual abuse and violence. There is no doubt that justice may occur when the right person speaks out. However, what happens when the wrong people—that is, people of color, the working class women, and transgender people— speak out on the same issue? When these “wrong people” do speak out, they are discredited, marginalized, and silenced by being ignored. This Viewpoint essay addresses two popul…
Civil Rights, Social Equity, and Census 2020
This article examines Census 2020 relative to civil rights and social equity. Mandated by the U.S. Constitution, the Census is directly related to civil rights as Census totals are used to determine voting representation, and results impact billions of dollars of federal, state, and local funding across multiple areas including education, health care, and housing. Census undercounts impact marginalized communities, and this is a heightened concer…
An Exploratory Study of Transgender Inmate Populations in Latin America
Transgender persons disproportionately face inequities, especially in prisons. Despite these inequities, the academic literature on this topic is limited. Even more limited is the literature on transgender issues in Latin America. This exploratory study addresses these issues. First, it examines literature on transgender prisoners, emphasizing how they, already victimized by society at large, are revictimized in prisons. Second, it investigates t…
A Public Ethics Approach Focused on the Lives of Diverse LGBTQ Homeless Youth
How can an ethical-analytical framework focused on social equity help illuminate the challenges faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth of color, particularly those who are homeless? The purpose of this article is to engage in just such an analysis of the complex analytical and ethical challenges presented by homelessness among LGBTQ youth. The authors take as our point of departure the premise that trans youth…

Public Administration and the Increased Need for Cultural Competencies in the Twenty-First Century
This paper argues that public administration needs to reconsider how it conceptualizes and educates about social equity and social justice issues. The field needs to move away from an assimilationist to a different cultural model. Two significant demographic trends drive this need. First, the Census Bureau projects that by 2042 (or sooner) the United States will no longer have a majority racial/ethnic group. Second, the country's aging dominant c…

Social Class, Sexual Orientation, and Toward Proactive Social Equity Scholarship
An analysis of data from the premier public administration journals in Australia, Brazil, Canada, and the United States shows academic public administration has taken both a narrow and a conservative approach to four social equity issues, including gender, race, sexual orientation, and social class. The findings show these periodicals (a) seldom and sometimes never publish articles on the four themes; (b) confine nearly all their social equity wr…
