Ethical Studies in the Perspective of the Philosophy of Science in Relation to the Principles of Norms and Ethics of Government Bureaucracy

This study discusses the role of ethics in the perspective of the philosophy of science and its implementation in government bureaucracy. Ethics is part of the philosophy of science, especially in the axiology dimension that discusses the value and benefits of science in life. In this study, the method used is a literature study approach. Literature study was chosen as the main method because this study aims to analyze the concept of ethics in the perspective of the philosophy of science and its application in government authority based on various academic sources. The three main dimensions in the philosophy of science, namely ontology, epistemology, and axiology, are interrelated in understanding ethics as a moral guideline for bureaucrats in carrying out their duties. In the context of government, bureaucratic ethics is the foundation for realizing good governance by upholding public interests, professionalism, and transparency in public services. Factors such as individual morality, organizational culture, and compliance with regulations have a significant influence on the implementation of ethics in bureaucracy. Therefore, the application of strong ethics in government is the key to creating a clean, fair, and reliable public service system
