摘要:Due diligence laws respond to labor governance challenges and to a lack of public governance addressing human rights violations in Global Value Chains. Despite ongoing contestation, the German Supply Chain Due Diligence Act seeks to hold German-based firms accountable for human rights risks in their supply chains. This paper explores how an underrepresented actor, organized labor, leverages this legal mechanism for local labor conflicts within transnational production systems, considering poli...

摘要:Of the various attributes and regulatory tools related to nursing home service provision-such as ownership, transparency, oversight, and sanctions-which are seen as preferable and are most trusted? To address this question, we conducted a conjoint survey experiment on nursing home services with 1009 direct relatives of nursing home residents in Spain. Participants evaluated hypothetical nursing home profiles that varied across core service characteristics and regulatory tools: ownership, trans...

摘要:Governments across the European Union (EU) have pledged a stronger commitment to vocational education and training (VET) in response to economic structural change. But have states actually become more central to skill formation? Using mixed methods, this paper examines whether state involvement in European skill formation systems has increased over the past two decades. Applying seeded Latent Dirichlet Allocation topic modeling to 291 standardized descriptions of VET systems, the study finds t...

摘要:The importance of international shipping in economic development, as well as its intersection with international security, environmental protection and other fields of global governance, has encouraged much interest in the rule-making processes that govern the sector. While literature has often highlighted the centrality of corporate power in maritime policy processes, existing scholarship has lacked detailed accounts of how corporate power in these processes is constructed and sustained. In t...

摘要:With the development of generative Artificial Intelligence, the question of the nature of authorship in the copyright system has returned. Disillusioned with traditional answers based on the concept of copyright, we turn the tables and consider why we ask about authorship in the first place. In the following paper, we show that the real problem of machine creativity concerning copyright law is of epistemic origin (the attribution problem), why neither granting nor not granting copyright would ...

摘要:This paper invites the readers to rethink regulatory governance by examining how trust-based and rule-based governance interact. To do this, it uses analytical narratives of three fictional polities: Trustland, Regland, and Concordia. Each polity represents a stylized model of governance: Trustland is anchored in trust-based governance, Regland in rule-based governance, and Concordia evolves as an attempt for a synergy of both. The analysis reveals the deep logics, political tensions, and inst...

摘要:Compliance with government rules and guidelines is essential for effectively managing pandemic emergencies. Few studies have examined how street-level bureaucrats (SLBs)' behavioral performance shapes citizen compliance decisions. This study combines the stereotype content model (SCM) with the elaboration likelihood model (ELM) of persuasion in a large-scale randomized between-subjects survey experiment conducted in China. The study tests the hypothesis that citizens' impressions of warmth and...

摘要:We offer a systematic analysis of IMF loan conditionality on corruption and argue that the Fund's pursuit of anti-corruption measures is tempered by two political costs. First, because corruption is politically sensitive, the IMF risks destabilizing recipient governments and provoking crises. Second, these domestic risks translate into institutional costs: imposing such measures in strategically important countries (e.g., US allies or temporary UNSC members) can alienate key stakeholders. We p...

摘要:Regulatory governance and state-corporate crime studies link persistent industrial pollution to long-term regulatory-industry interactions, yet little is known about how these interactions evolve and become entrenched. This article examines two enduring cases of industrial pollution in the Netherlands-Hoogovens/Tata Steel and DuPont de Nemours/Chemours-to explore how regulatory-industry interactions shape the emergence, normalization, and persistence of pollution. Based on historical archives ...

摘要:It has become commonplace for non-democratic regimes to integrate information and communication technologies (ICTs) into their governance system. However, how citizens make use of these new digital opportunities in an authoritarian setting remains understudied. Based on an online survey in China in 2021, we find that a surprisingly large share of Chinese citizens engages with the new ICT-based participatory venues. But ICTs seem to unfold their potential only for certain groups such as tech-sa...
