The Good Commissioner Case Solution
Found at the center of a woods, totally inaccessible to transport, and far from police headquarters, it becomes clear the property acquisition is designed simply to make someone wealthy at the expense of the district. The actual needs of the district- invest in employment plans, prevent malaria, enhance literacy, to supply safe drinking water, and wean local youth away from secessionist militancy -are slighted.
The administrator determines to delay the acquisition, even while recognizing his systems to help the district, at risk, and the attempt may set his career. The case recounts his escalating strategies, from bureaucratic trickery to willful destruction and deceit of a government record. It provides a vehicle for discussing the ethical responsibilities of public officials faced with systemic corruption-and potential strategies for coping with it. HKS Case Amount 1615.0
