Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Correct option is C

This sequence reflects the historical development and theoretical evolution of public administration as a field. It begins with the Politics-Administration dichotomy, which emphasizes the separation of political decision-making from administrative execution. The Principles of Administration stage focuses on establishing a scientific basis for administrative practices, aiming for efficiency and effectiveness. Then, acknowledging Public Administration as part of Political Science highlights the field's relationship and contribution to understanding governmental operations within the political context. The transition to viewing Public Administration as Administrative Science marks a shift towards a more empirical and systematic approach to studying administrative processes and behaviors. Finally, conceptualizing Public Administration as Public Administration signifies the recognition of the field as a distinct entity with its own theories, methods, and concerns, focusing on serving public interest and managing public resources effectively.
