摘要:The lion's share of comparative research on corruption, good governance, and quality of government (QoG) has been cross-country. However, a growing body of literature has begun to explore within-country variations observed at the subnational level regarding corruption and social trust. The existence of such variations implies that state-level institutions are not capable of telling the entire story and that quality of subnational-level institutions might be important determinants of within-cou...

It is therefore important to understand what explains the exchange of scientific information in national climate policymaking processes. This article applies exponential random graph models to network data from the Czech Republic, Finland, Ireland, and Portugal to investigate which types of organizations are favored sources of sc...

摘要:Since the 1990s, South Africa, like many other countries from the Global South, has provided extensive social assistance for the poor. The literature on these policies, however, is largely dominated by structuralist accounts, and it largely overlooks political factors. We conducted quantitative analyses regarding the South African flagship Child Support Grant (CSG) program and investigated how contentious and electoral political dynamics jointly shape the provision of this program. Based on a ...
