Its aim is to assess the extent to which these activities have been influenced by New Public Management reforms while also evidencing the fact that many other types of management have been developed overtime. Based on an analytical typology categorizing the diversity of managerial tasks and...

摘要：Cognition is an essential first step in crisis management. This article conceptualizes crisis cognition as a collective and context-dependent process. Drawing on cognitive sociology, I argue that governmental structures and culture/identity shape cognitive schemas and communicative practices essential for collective cognition. I apply this framework to compare governments' recognition of the 2015 migration crisis in Luxembourg and Germany, which showed a puzzling gap in crisis preparation. The...

摘要：This article examines the complex balancing of political loyalty and meritocratic competence in the appointment of top civil servants-a pivotal aspect of public administration that is particularly relevant in developing contexts. Focusing on the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) of Iraq, this study aims to unravel how merit and patronage converge in the appointment processes of director generals (DGs). To this end, the article develops an analytical framework that conceptualizes hybrid appoi...

摘要：The question of why electoral punishment of corrupt politicians fails to materialize continues to captivate scholars and practitioners. In this research, I draw upon implicit exchange theory to demonstrate that corrupt politicians may retain public trust if they are seen as responsive to the constituency. Analyses of survey data from 590 local business owners in two municipalities in Thailand reveal that political corruption negatively affected public trust, while political responsiveness had ...

摘要：Expert involvement in China's policy process has grown significantly since 2012, while the evolving motivations driving experts to act as policy entrepreneurs have received limited attention in the literature. This article examines how the changing political climate steers the rising involvement of experts in China's internal consultative information system. Through qualitative analysis of participatory observation and interviews, we find that the Communist Party of China's (CPC) political ref...

摘要：This study presents a dual-method approach to systematically analyze public health advisory networks during the COVID-19 pandemic across four jurisdictions: Belgium, Quebec, Sweden, and Switzerland. Using network analysis inspired by egocentric analysis and a subsystems approach adapted to public health, the research investigates network structures and their openness to new actors and ideas. The findings reveal significant variations in network configurations, with differences in density, cent...

摘要：E-government services are often heralded as a silver bullet for governments willing to engage more meaningfully with citizens. Evidence on the effectiveness of these measures for improving citizen-state relations is scarce, however. Most studies examining e-government focus on efficiency considerations; few consider potential effects on citizen-state relations. The present study analyses the effect of an information treatment about the availability of e-government services on citizen perceptio...

摘要：This study examines whether and how information asymmetry affects local governments' gaming behaviors in a decentralization reform. We contend that adequate access to local information by the principal is a prerequisite for mitigating effort substitution among agents. We examine the hypothesis based on a decentralization reform in China-the Integration of Agriculture-related Fiscal Transfer reform. We use the distance between pilot villages and the provincial capital as the measurement of loca...
