Jean Charles Bonnin

In my opinion, I think that the best on my field is Jean Charles Bonnin. He was a French specialist on public administration in the beginnings of the XIX century. He was one of the first men who defined exactly what the public administration is and he established the principles of how a public administrator must be.
Bonnin had a clear vision about the public administration on his time.He established the principles of the public administration in opposition to the practices that where development in the period of the Absolute Monarchy. He thought that the employees of the monarchy government were proud, indifferent to the public happiness, unconcerned of their obligation and that they commit a lot of abuses and humiliations.
He is the best because he formulated the bases of the public administration profession. In his book “Principes d` administration publique” (Principles of the public administration), we can observe important basics principles like: The merit principle, the competence principle and the idea of an employed career. All of these principles watch over to create a better public administrator.

My career

I’ m studying the major of Public administration, because is a profession who have an important place in the society, and a extended labour field. Also, I like it because, I love the city where my department take place. The professionals of my area contribute to society because they are in charge of solve social needs, join technical expert with political decisions, and contribute to make a better government.
A professional of Public Administration, needs to develop a variety of tools for his future: needs to know about law , dominate management techniques, understand economical process, and analyze political events.
My favourite subject is History of the Institutions of Chile, because we have to: analyze the historical events from a new scientific perspective, understand oldest political decisions, and realize how institutions influence society. Is a very difficult subject, me and my partners have to read a lot, study for weekly tests, and do some “ayudantía” homework. How ever still been very interesting.
