La volontà di affermare il ruolo dell’etica nelle scelte delle amministrazioni pubbliche nasce dall’esigenza di conciliare il complesso dei valori interni che orientano i comportamenti di tali organizzazioni con le regole e i relativi sovrastanti principi diffusamente presenti nel contesto di riferimento. Al fine di specificare meglio il concetto di etica applicata al comportamento delle stesse, il lavoro è stato sviluppato, utilizzando la lente metodologica dell’Approccio Sistemico Vitale. La ricerca empirica, effettuata attraverso un’indagine campionaria, si è soffermata sulla diffusione e attuazione del Codice etico, previsto dal Dipartimento della Funzione pubblica.
The attempt to emphasise the role of ethics in the decisions of public administration is born of a need to reconcile the complex internal values that guide the actions of those organisations with the rules and governing principles frequently present in this context. The aim is to better specify the ethical concepts to the behaviour of the organisations. The work has been developed using the methodology of the Vital Systems Approach. Empirical research in a sample inquiry focused on the diffusion and implementation of the Ethical Code, promulgated by the Department of Public Administration.
