The work of SPA's David Rosenbloom, Distinguished Professor of Public Administration, will be the focus of a panel at the upcoming Public Management Research Conference. Rosenbloom's scholarship will be explored in a session, "Defining Public Administration in Japan and Singapore: An Application of Rosenbloom's Three-Perspective Model," presented by Naomi Aoki, National University of Singapore, and Jed Kee, George Washington University.
