摘要：This paper sets out an archival account of events leading up to the mass agencification of the British civil service by the Thatcher administration (1979-1990). This account holds lessons for contemporary understandings of the ideological roots and institutional structures of corporatization. When Thatcher came to power in 1979, she wanted to make government efficient through the adoption of business-like practices. We show that this project was grounded in her Methodist upbringing and the eme...

摘要：How should we understand proliferating government bailouts of financial firms in successive crises since the 1970s and the rise of neoliberal norms opposing such discretionary public assistance? We argue that the relationship between bailouts and neoliberalism is one of mutually reinforcing coexistence. First, a new bailout coalition including much of the middle class has emerged in many countries over the past century, pushing governments to deliver extensive bailouts in crises. Second, many ...

摘要：Recent years have seen a dramatic growth in the study of frictions that individuals experience, especially in their interactions with the public sector, creating both the potential for new research opportunities and conceptual confusion. We seek to head off the latter by providing, in one place, a definition, description of the development, and comparison of four dominant conceptions of frictions: ordeal mechanisms, red tape, administrative burden, and sludge. In particular, we discuss the fou...

摘要：The representative bureaucracy literature focuses on how passive representation translates into substantive benefits for the represented individuals. Although scholars have found substantial empirical support for representation based on gender, most studies have examined the United States, a country with high levels of democracy and gender equality compared to much of the rest of the world. This article first investigates whether the effects of gender representation differ across countries usi...

摘要：Dramaturgical perspectives have been used successfully in the past by crisis management researchers. However, previous contributions have been limited because they have been actor-centered, which has meant that they have tended to ignore the critical role that an audience can play in the drama of a crisis. This article therefore presents a third act in which dramaturgical perspectives are used to deliver an actor-and-audience centered analysis of crisis management. This third act is built arou...

摘要：Transnational issues in public administration are charged with coordination problems between public and private actors. This is especially true for nascent issue fields. The mitigation of global cyber risks represents one such emerging issue. International organizations have encouraged the development of cybersecurity strategies as an integral part of national security regimes and to strengthen the global security environment. Cyber capacity building (CCB) efforts respond to these calls and di...

摘要：Many representative bureaucracy studies examine outcomes in the context of passive and active representation, but relatively few have investigated the effects of passive representation on outcomes for the organization as a whole. To address this gap, we analyze data from a national law enforcement survey in the United States on formal citizen complaints regarding allegations of excessive use of physical force. This measure aligns with a three-dimensional accountability framework consisting of ...
