The role of the Public Administrator in Chile: Is it worth living for this occupation?
Abstract
The article presents a detailed analysis of the state of the art of public administration as an undergraduate program in the context of the Chilean university system and discusses the relevance of current gradúate profiles and the adequacy of existing curricula from a critical perspective, contrasting vocational training with the workplace, as well as other relevant variables. This provides as a basis for reflecting on the present and future of the profession, mindful of the profound changes in the state and its institutions and emerging trends and paradigms that which arise in a constantly changing world.
