Summary/Abstract: This special issue of Halduskultuur is devoted to the exploration of an emerging field in administrative studies, aesthetic analysis. The papers grew out of a joint conference in April 2006 of the Departments of Political Science and Aesthetics at the University of Helsinki and Halduskultuur, held for one day at the University of Helsinki and the following day at Tallinn’s Museum of Occupations. In preparation for this issue, a small network of scholars in Finland and Estonia with a common interest in aesthetics was formed the previous year to sketch out the potential scope of this approach.
