The document discusses the evolution of the concept of development administration from the 1960s to present. It began as a way to apply public administration principles to achieving development goals in developing countries. Development administration aims to guide government action toward development objectives and ensure administrative innovation. It focuses on providing key inputs like skilled manpower, finances, infrastructure, information, citizen participation, and legitimate power to drive development. There is no consensus model as administrative needs vary between cultures and stages of development. The field of development administration rose in popularity post-WWII but declined as other development paradigms emerged.
