Abstract
The article describes conceptual framework of the ethical decision-making traditions in public sector which is significantly differs from the private sector decision-making rules.
In the nowadays policymaking process modern purpose-oriented way of thinking replaces former value-based rational thought. In times of deep uncertainty and complexity when each decision cannot rely on previous experience in order to reduce the effort and for effectiveness of decision one has to apply a moral nihilism supposed to reject moral, religious and legal codes of the humankind culture. Due to the dominance of the subjectivity in the process of making ethical decisions a distorted perception of reality and susceptibility to external manipulations are inevitable. Today it can be assumed that government leaders in the future will be required to have more advanced skills for good ethical governance.
Keywords:
