"...favoritism is just what it sounds like;
it's favoring a person not because he or she is doing the best job
but rather because of some extraneous feature-membership in a favored group...
Favoritism can be demonstrated in hiring, honoring, or awarding contracts.
A related idea is patronage, giving public service jobs
to those who may have helped elect the person who has the power of appointment.
...Cronyism is a more specific form of favoritism,
referring to partiality towards friends and associates.
...Cronyism occurs within a network of insiders-the "good ol' boys,"
who confer favors on one another.
...In the public sphere, favoritism, cronyism, and nepotism
also undermine the common good.
...the appearance of favoritism weakens morale in government service,
not to mention public faith in the integrity of government.
