Civic Honor Standards

Civic Honor Standards explores how to cultivate ethical behavior within civic institutions, crucial for maintaining public trust and effective governance. The book argues that ethical governance extends beyond individual morality, deeply intertwining with institutional design. For instance, robust ethical standards are essential for building public trust, much like a strong foundation supports a building.

The book begins by tracing the historical evolution of civic governance, analyzing shifts in societal expectations and the impact of globalization. It then progresses to strategies for promoting ethical behavior, such as codes of conduct and whistleblower protections, before examining real-world case studies.

A key contribution is the development of an Ethical Governance Index, enabling quantitative comparison of ethical performance across institutions. This academic work takes a practical, solutions-oriented approach, offering recommendations for policymakers and public administrators. It emphasizes that ethical governance is vital for a thriving society, making it valuable for anyone seeking to improve public service and strengthen the bonds between citizens and their government, promoting accountability, transparency, and integrity.
