Bernardo Zacka is a Ph.D. Candidate in Political Theory in the Department of Government at Harvard University. His research focuses on questions of moral personality, ethical decision-making, and individual responsibility in bureaucratic organizations. His dissertation explores the everyday moral life of front-line public workers, or “street-level bureaucrats,” who act as intermediaries between citizens and the state. It seeks to address the following two questions: how do bureaucracies affect the moral personalities of front-line workers? And how can these workers respond to the challenges of street-level work while remaining balanced and sensitive moral agents? He holds a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from MIT, and an A.M. in Government from Harvard. <http://bernardozacka.wordpress.com/>
