Resumo

Japanese animated series Fullmetal Alchemist provides a scheme to begin organizing and discussing the often-implicit questions that have existed and continue to exist among discussions of ethics in Public Administration. Pairing this scheme with the work of Jaspers (1955, 1971) affords the opportunity for scholars and practitioners to understand, visualize, and potentially reconcile these phenomena under an established philosophical umbrella. Additionally, this pairing demonstrates a valuable pedagogical tool for both scholars and their students of administrative ethics.
