摘要：Are voters particularly biased against women holding village leadership positions? We initially theorize that traditional ceremonial roles drive anti-woman bias for rural village leadership positions. Our results partially align with expectations. While we find that voters in rural areas are more biased against women as village leaders than for other positions, our results and follow-up interviews suggest a different mechanism. We find that women face heightened voter bias because village lead...

摘要：While research on subnational lobbying has advanced considerably in recent years, much less is known about the role of lower levels in the context of multilevel lobbying. In a multilevel system, interest groups can pursue different routes for influence-seeking. These include a domestic subnational route to seek amendments on a bill by lobbying regional governments, and a subnational-Brussels route, based on regions' influence on EU policymaking. Investigating the case of Germany, we analyze ob...

摘要：In the mid-2000s, the Single Market Program and European Monetary Union lost momentum, as public services advocates increasingly succeeded in tempering attempts to liberalize public utilities through legislative amendments and Court of Justice rulings. After the 2008 crisis, however, the EU's shift to a new economic governance (NEG) regime provided EU executives with a new tool to advance their objectives. Unlike EU directives, country-specific NEG prescriptions require neither the approval of...

摘要：International Organizations formulate and disseminate principles of good governance for issues such as urban water governance. These principles are formulated in universal and general terms, for example, more transparency or participation, and are intended to enhance governance effectiveness. Yet, the relationship between such principles and governance effectiveness is not linear. Different combinations of principles affect governance effectiveness differently, depending on the context. It rai...

摘要：In responding to crises, governments often need to enact restrictions on the freedoms of citizens that might be perceived as intrusive and unfair. Yet, government interventions need to retain legitimacy in the eyes of citizens. We study the perceived legitimacy of pandemic crisis interventions with a focus on the effects of multi-level governance and region-specific interventions. Such territorially-differentiated measures are often appropriate for effective crisis responses, but they raise co...

摘要：Individuals form perceptions about the degree of administrative burdens associated with public agencies and programs, even without being (potential) policy clients themselves (e.g., a wealthy person's view of administrative burdens experienced by welfare program applicants) or without referring to a specific instance (e.g., perceptions of bureaucratic hurdles in the federal government overall). This study develops and validates a scale of perceived administrative burden that is applicable beyo...

摘要：In recent years, an increasing body of research has examined the influence of populism on public bureaucracies and their responses to this phenomenon. This study seeks to add to this literature by examining how high-level Israeli bureaucrats navigate populist pressures. Based on 32 in-depth interviews with current and former senior officials, our findings reveal that bureaucrats are very aware of populist leaders' attempts to exploit bureaucratic institutions to consolidate power, thereby weak...

摘要：The widely accepted view that algorithmic accessibility and accountability enhance the perceived trustworthiness of automated decision-making has not yet been fully validated. This study fills this research gap by conducting two survey experiments using real-world scenarios. We examine participants' trust preferences when exposed to varying levels of algorithmic accessibility and accountability, under different degrees of decision risks. Our findings highlight that algorithmic accountability e...
