Who is considered as the pioneer of the New Public Administration ?
Answer: A
The pioneer of New Public Administration is Dwight Waldo.
New Public Administration grew out of the Minnowbrook Conference of 1968, held at Syracuse University under Waldo's sponsorship, where young scholars called for a discipline concerned with relevance, values, social equity and change. Waldo had earlier challenged the politics-administration dichotomy in The Administrative State (1948), and he is generally named as the father of the movement.
Ferrel Heady is known for comparative public administration. Christopher Hood gave the classic account of New Public Management (1991), a later and quite different movement. Since Hood is not a pioneer of New Public Administration, 'Both (A) and (C)' is also wrong.
