ABSTRACT
To fulfill its professional responsibilities and to serve its authoritative obligations, public administration as a profession continues to evolve and to search for the most appropriate knowledge and competence. Early in the previous century, development of the administrative state within the industrial nations was a major adjustment that changed the structure and the functioning of contemporary governance. The considerable effects of governance on society have attracted wide interest in the literature, conveying diverse conceptualizations and definitions. Governance has wide-ranging effects on its people; it has major responsibilities of coping with external challenges as well as making decisions that affect the welfare and security of the society. Globalization has mainly been defined in terms of linkages, integration, interdependence, and connectedness among economies, peoples, cultures, and countries. The appeal of technological innovation, and the recent worldwide popularization of electronic tools and products, underlines the depiction of globalization as driven by recent achievements in information and communication technologies (ICT).
