Abstract: | This article reports on the results of an empirical survey conducted among a group of Turkish governors and district governors. This study tries to identify variations in values, particularly about public service ethics, by focusing on the transformation of value preferences of Turkish governors and district governors. The results reveal a traditional and more or less consistent value pattern for Turkish governors and district governors. The results do not support the often-assumed hypothesis that traditional public service values are devaluated or degraded by the emergence of businesslike values. |
