约翰·密尔的行政思想是通过论述政治制度的可选择性来论证行政制度的可选择性,行政制度是人的意志选择的结果。行政的主要原则与评判标准是行政执行的理论依据,行政人员是行政执行的主体,其选拔应通过公开考试和特殊任命结合的方式。行政运行的好坏不但关涉到行政人员的命运,也与人民群众的命运戚戚相关。通过有效地监督可以避免行政运行中的弊病,为行政的良好运行保驾护航。密尔虽提倡专家治国,但其行政思想核心是杰出人物的统治。 John Mill’s administrative thought proves the alternative of the administrative system by discussing the alternative of the political system, which is the result of human’s will choice. The main principles and criteria of administration are the theoretical basis of administrative execution. Administrators are the main body of administrative enforcement. Their selection should be through a combination of open examination and special appointment. The quality of administrative operation is not only related to the fate of the administrative staff, but also to the fate of the people and the masses. By effectively supervising, we can avoid the shortcomings in administrative operation and escort the good operation of the administration. Though advocating experts to govern the country, Mill is at the core of his administration thought of dominance.
