Abstract
- The article looks at Master of Public Administration (MPA) programs in Mexico and identifies four basic themes that compose Mexican public administration. Public service, justice, transparency, and good governance are all found in MPA programs in Mexico. The paper begins with an examination of public administration in Mexico and suggests that Mexico is currently undergoing its own progressive era. It looks at the administrative reforms and corruption in Mexico and their impact on various functions of government. MPA program curricula in Mexico are assessed to examine course offerings as they contribute to the reform movement. We introduce our study by highlighting key issues in the country of Mexico and then proceed to discuss their absence in some MPA programs. Finally, our findings show the various course offerings and regional differences in MPA program curricula. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
