ENThe topic of administrative ethics is rather new in Lithuania. The key of this article is the concept of professional values in public service. Author analyses different theoretical aspects of public administration values. Author had several tasks: to define the concept of "value", to examine different classifications of public administration values, to present the core values of public administration. Author presents and compares the definition of "value" presented by different researchers. Some theorists use similar concepts of values, principles, standards and norms exploring the topic- of administrative ethics. Only few of them concentrate on the definition of the term. Different authors try to group similar values. More often used is the division into democratic and bureaucratic values in public service (J. Bowman, D. Pugh, R. Denhardt, J. Grubbs). Other researchers present a different classification of public service values into personal, professional, legal, democratic, organizational and public interest. In the second chapter author concentrates on the issue of professional public service values. She doesn't have the purpose to present a list of universal professional values but sets a task to identify and define the most important professional values. Serving the public interest, responsibility and accountability, disinterestedness, impartiality, openness, transparency is among the mentioned values. New pressures and challenges pose a question for theorists and practicians of the vitality and importance of the professional public service values. [From the publication]
