6 multiple choice 4 points
in the public sector, ____, rather than partisan loyalty, family connections, or political influence, is the basis for getting a job.
money
merit
authority
hierarchy

Explanation:

The question asks for the basis of public sector jobs that replaces partisan loyalty, family connections, or political influence. "Merit" refers to hiring based on qualifications and competence, which is the standard in public sectors to ensure fairness and efficiency. Other options like money (bribery), authority (power dynamics), or hierarchy (organizational structure) do not fit the description of job allocation criteria based on worthiness.

Answer:

merit
