One of the most interesting topics from Smith’s thinking is his thesis about harmony of self-interests with public interest. According to this thesis individual acting will be helpful to whole of society. How should we understand this claim, when Smith connects it with self-love and egoism? The paper shows that understanding of this claim needs wider ethical and social background. First, Smith’s political economy is narrowly connected with his theory of moral sentiments. Second, validity of the Smith’s thesis is dependent on existence of some institutions of society, especially justice and positive law. Only these assumptions give meaningful to this thesis.

A public service is a service which is provided by government or public sector to citizens. Main definition of public service is that it is a service in the public interest. It means that everyone who provides a public service must act in public interest and no in self-interest. Nevertheless the term “public interest” is necessary for the definition of “public service”, it doesn’t have exact meaning, which is important not only in law and politics but in ethics too. In this study ethical relevance of term “public interest” in connection with ethics in public service is showed. This study analyses conversions of “public interest” in history of social-political thought which can help its understanding in contemporary philosophy and public policy. The analysis shows that the term “public interest” is very complicated, dependent on social-political conditions of state and therefore it needs ethical expertise in every situation which is connected with providing of public service.
