both within and outside the organisation must also be considered. Components
of the local community, the society that is being served, partners, allies, associates,
contractors, providers and colleagues in public administration are all part of these
external interest groups. Where international organisations are present in foreign
countries or activities are being set up, the local population is an interest group.
Governmental actors, local authorities (key leaders), heads of international agencies,
non-governmental organisations and allies make up a varied and dynamic map of
interest groups. They constitute a social context with which interaction and mutual
cooperation is necessary for a comprehensive situational awareness that will allow for
the development of ethical and responsible conduct.
THE NEW CHALLENGES IN DEFENCE AND SECURITY
INSTITUTIONS
The Armed Forces Royal Decrees are the principal moral reference point where
military values, virtues and duties76 come together.
There are more traditional values such as exemplarity, patriotism, the spirit of
service, courage, loyalty, comradeship, sacrifice and honour that have resisted the test
of time. Other values such as respect, discipline, professional excellence and initiative
adapt, modernise and evolve in line with society and technological progress, at times
changing their form and ways of implementation.
Upholding a correct ethical interpretation of the values specific to institutions is
important as it allows them to be internalised and implemented correctly. A coherent
ethical development avoids confusion between values and counter-values, that
can sometimes be very close, such as comradeship with corporatism, loyalty with
submission, discipline with abuse of authority or courage with recklessness.
People in command and management positions who fully take on their responsibilities
as leaders have to take decisions on a constant basis and at times have less information
available to them than would be desirable and only have direct access to limited information.
Ethical conduct is adopted based on the interpretation of facts and circumstances with a
subsequent appraisal consistent with criteria and principles based on rules and laws. An
approach based on the theories of ethical leadership and management models, based on
the implementation of social responsibility77, can bring about the implementation of new
procedures that increase the amount of information available, and promote participation,
commitment and involvement of members of institutions.
