• Denying public value: The role of the public sector in accounts of the development of the Internet AI翻译
  作者：Rogers, JD; Kingsley, G

  摘要：The development of the Internet has required the combined efforts of government agencies, universities, and private corporations. The system as we came to know it in the 1990s is to a great extent the result of the interaction of technical considerations and the peculiar interfaces among the public, private, and hybrid sectors. Yet the stories of the creation of the Internet by participants are largely of a system that sprung wholly from the private sector. In this study we explore the distanc...

  摘要：Interpretive politics is a contest over the framing of ideas. In the context of closed-door, elite policymaking groups, interpretive politics shapes the thinking of both group members and the wider community of stakeholders. This article identifies a temporal structure to interpretive politics in group policymaking settings and a related set of framing moves. Framing moves are actions taken by meeting participants to challenge existing policy frames and to project new ones. These moves corresp...

  摘要：Studies of moral reasoning in public administration have used James Rest's Defining Issues Test (DIT) and the Stewart-Sprinthall Management Survey (SSMS), both derived from Lawrence Kohlberg's work, to assess the moral reasoning of government managers and personnel with disparate results. For example, in previous research with public administrators the SSMS has found higher levels of law and order or maintaining norms moral reasoning than the DIT. The purposes of this article are to (1) summar...

  摘要：Scholars have been preoccupied for generations with identifying the best measure and model of organizational performance. Drawing on previous work focused on the development of multi-dimensional frameworks or models of organizational performance, this article presents our perspective on organizational performance, discussing a multidimensional model that emphasizes the importance of assessing the two primary dimensions of performance, management and program performance. We advocate for the use...
• The middle aging of new public management: Into the age of paradox? AI翻译
  作者：Hood, C; Peters, G
  作者单位：University of Oxford; Pennsylvania Commonwealth System of Higher Education (PCSHE); University of Pittsburgh
  摘要：As New Public Management enters middle age, scholarly attention has moved to some degree from descriptive mapping and a priori critiques to the analysis of surprises and paradoxes associated with recent and contemporary public service reforms. Some standard analytic lenses for examining such paradoxes, explored here, are the Mertonian tradition of analyzing unintended effects of social interventions, cultural theories of surprise, and the analysis of discontinuities and unexpected couplings in...
• Institutional isornorphism and public sector organizations AI翻译
  作者：Frumkin, P; Galaskiewicz, J
  作者单位：Harvard University; University of Arizona
  摘要：Although public sector organizations have long been seen as driving the institutionalization of business firms and nonprofit organizations, government agencies themselves have only occasionally been studied as subjects of institutional pressures. This research examines whether public sector organizations, when compared with organizations in the business and nonprofit sectors, are more or less as susceptible to mimetic, normative, and coercive pressures. Using data from the National Organizatio...
• Using multiple informants in public administration: Revisiting the managerial values and actions debate AI翻译
  作者：Walker, RM; Enticott, G
  作者单位：Cardiff University; University of Hong Kong
  摘要：Evidence is presented from a large-n longitudinal survey of multiple informants to address some of the weaknesses of the extant literature, namely the use of elite, recall, and snapshot surveys together with the direction of causality in statistical models. These weaknesses are illustrated through a first time analysis of variations in management reform values and actions in local government. The empirical results indicate that management reform values and actions are contingent and vary betwe...
