Public administration

Public Administration is, broadly speaking, the implementation of policy within a state framework. A good working definition is, "taking care of the state's, and international organizations', business by civil servants within the executive branch of government, other than public policy." Like law or medicine, but unlike economics/economy and political science/politics, public administration is the term both for the subject matter and for the academic study of the same.
