摘要：This study explores the role of representative bureaucracy in buffering the impact of adverse policy environments on immigrants' access to public benefits. Specifically, we examine whether and to what extent a more representative government workforce influences immigrant families' participation in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and moderates the impact of unfavorable immigrant policy climates. Analyzing data on 49 states from 2006 to 2016, we find that a government workfo...

摘要：Addressing wicked problems like climate change requires collaborative efforts from public, private, and third-sector organizations (TSOs), making a co-productive approach especially promising. However, traditional co-production research often overlooks the contributions of TSOs and the voices of marginalized populations. This study addresses these gaps by exploring the role of TSOs as intermediaries in co-producing climate actions by empowering vulnerable communities. Through a case study of a...

摘要：Powerful business interests threaten to capture policy design. From a quiet politics perspective, businesses are especially influential in policy design under conditions of low political salience. From a bureaucratic politics perspective, bureaucratic power based on specialist expertise is also strongest in low-salience contexts and enables them to withstand business influence. Under what conditions does bureaucratic power or business power prevail in policy design under low political salience...

摘要：A public encounter is a direct, focused interaction between unelected public officials and private individuals with the goal of enacting a distribution of benefits or obligations. Administrative responsibility concerns an official's normative obligations for acting within a legally defined role. Does the public perceive notionally responsible action in a public encounter as actually responsible? Our mixed-method approach to this question begins by theoretically connecting two practical problem...

摘要：The persistent influence of historical bureaucratic institutions on various contemporary socio-economic outcomes is well documented, yet the extent to which these institutions shape current citizen-state interactions remains underexplored. This study focuses on the persistent effect of a cultural factor shaped by a historical meritocratic institution (ancient China's imperial examination) on citizen compliance with social distancing policies during the first wave of COVID-19 in China. Based on...

摘要：Experts play a central role in national and international policy-making. Despite their expanding influence, there is little systematic information about who gives expert advice and their demographic composition. This study contributes to addressing this empirical gap by applying a benchmark-based approach developed for studying political representation to examine the descriptive representation of experts formally involved in Swedish policy processes. Using detailed administrative data on the e...

摘要：Deployment of digital surveillance technologies has enabled governments to acquire detailed, precise, synoptic, and-in settings where capacity and resource constraints had historically impeded state information-gathering efforts-previously inaccessible knowledge about populations. This article introduces a new typology of government digital surveillance and multiple sets of data that provide extensive evidence-the most comprehensive and systematic to date-of the deployment of digital surveilla...

摘要：Denigrating public servants has been a key feature of populists movements that seek to prioritize the individual and common people over establishment elites. In Canada, mainstream conservative party leaders claim Canada is broken and openly advocate for getting rid of the gatekeepers, for example, while right-wing populists often promote the dangers of the deep state. Despite these developments, we do not know whether and how populist attitudes relate to citizens' trust in the public service. ...
