Welcome message from the new Editor-in-Chief

The Korean Public Administration Review (KPAR) published its inaugural issue in 1956. It has since grown into the central pillar of Korean public administration and a driving force behind the advancement of Korean social sciences, now boasting a 70-year history. To further expand the academic achievement of the KPAR, the 2025-2026 Editorial Board aims to pursue the following directions:

  • 1.Continuation of rigorous and relevant research, maintaining the journal's longstanding commitment to scientific inquiry.
  • 2.Timely analyses of emerging administrative phenomena and critical policy issues through diverse research initiatives.
  • 3.Development of indigenous administrative theories by incorporating historical, philosophical, and comparative approaches to Korean public administration.
  • 4.Promotion of diversity and inclusivity in public administration research and among researchers.

The Editorial Board feels a sense of responsibility and duty regarding the operation of KPAR, considering recent changes in public administration and the KPAR's 70th anniversary in 2016. We encourage active interest and participation from our members in the activities of the KPAR Editorial Board.
