Abstract

This paper aims to elaborate the crises occurring in the science of public administration based on signifcant conceptions of scholars. Public administration’s initial emergence as a novel scientifc discipline sparked a theoretical-conceptual debate specifcally in the domain of epistemology. For the sake of systematical order, this paper is divided into three phases of crisis based on the dynamics of the theoretical-conceptual development of public administration, namely: (1) identity crisis; (2) paradigm crisis; and (3) intellectual crisis. The illustration of each crisis phase is aimed at conveying conception points of scientists which facilitates in reading the narrative of shifts and theoretical-conceptual contents including their inherent values. For this reason, a search or walkthrough of relevant literature is necessary to observe the development of thoughts in public administration.The study result shows that the differing ideas and argumentations which had occurred throughout every discussion on public administration have had implications on the heterogeneity of the public administration feld. The various shifts of locus-focus and paradigm in public administration is seen as a systematic atempt in fnding its true self as a scientifc discipline. The efforts of public administration in separating itself from the shadows of political science was also observed, although being capable of truly separating itself is considered as extremely difcult, bearing in mind that the focus and locus of public administration is very much affected by constantly developing social political influences. In addition to that, various shifts of locus and focus seems to have empirical implications particularly in the scientifc scope of public administration.

Abstract

This article explains the role of social assistants in community empowerment. Social assistants are needed as part of the direct and indirect determinants of the success of implementing community empowerment programs. The community becomes empowered by the assistance provided by social assistants so that the community can rise and achieve social welfare. To understand the role of the social assistant, a qualitative approach was used in this study. The study results show that the role of social assistants in community empowerment is good by being a facilitator, broker, mediator, defender, and protector. However, the role of the assistant in the field also plays a role as a liaison, motivator, researcher, mobilizer, advocate, evaluator, and mentor. The role played has not been maximized to empower the community due to social assistants carrying out their role difficulties in monitoring movements by the need for social welfare services, lack of cooperation and a sense of care between community leaders, and comprehensive coverage of work areas.
