Abstract
This dissertation explores the effectiveness of public administration in evaluating life quality and standards across different states, utilizing specifically on qualitative methodologies. The crux of this study is predicated on the principle that effective and accountable public administration plays a crucial role in delivering essential services and shaping societal well-being. Through a semi-structured interview approach, the research examines the intricate processes and decision-making mechanisms within public administration in states with varying population sizes, geographic locations, economic capabilities, and governance structures. This approach is designed to provide a nuanced understanding of the ways in which these factors may impact policy formulation and implementation. Data collection is conducted through virtual interviews with public administrators, public service users, and stakeholders, as well as document analysis. This allows for a rich, contextual exploration into the real-world experiences and perspectives of those at the forefront of public administration. Data analysis leverages thematic coding and content analysis to draw out major patterns and themes, providing insights into the successes and challenges in public administration's role in improving life quality and standards. The research aims to yield an in-depth understanding of the operational dynamics of public administration, highlighting best practices and identifying areas of improvement. This dissertation applies the theoretical perspective of Symbolic Interactionism, which posits that people act toward things, including each other, based on the meanings that these things have for them. These meanings are derived and modified through an interpretive process used by individuals in their interactions.
Through the application of Symbolic Interactionism to the field of public administration, this study proposes to explore how public administrators, service users, and stakeholders construct and interpret meanings of life quality and standards in their interactions, and how these interpretations influence the administrative practices and policies in different states.
