THE NEW PUBLIC ACTOR, A PHILOSOPHICAL APPROACH TO CHANGING THE PARADIGM OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION : PERSPEKTIF ADMINISTRASI PANCASILA

The change of government regime from the new order government, old order and reformation is a reflection of the citizens' dissatisfaction with the government in running the country in accordance with the consensus of the basic norms of Pancasila. Bureaucratic pathologies such as the culture of paternalism, corruption, budget swelling, and identity politics trigger public concern over state administration which tends to be further away from Pancasila values. With a literature approach, the manuscript is prepared with the basic assumption that Indonesia will become a large country that can realize the basic goals of the state only by applying the basic norms of Pancasila. The author suggests that the application of basic state norms can be carried out through basic administrative functions with the "New Public Actor" (NPA) paradigm in the state system and government bureaucracy. As a novelty of the NPA paradigm, which is based on two fundamental perspectives, the first is state administration as a science which has the function of articulating the basic norms of Pancasila and state administration as a state system is comprehensive in its function to realize the regularity of state administration in achieving the effectiveness of state goals.
