摘要：Strengthening the role of evidence in policy-making is increasingly seen as crucial for the quality and legitimacy of public policies. Both among practitioners and scholars, there is a growing awareness that evidence-informed policy-making not only depends on the rigor and relevance of the research, science communication or features of policy-makers. It also depends on how expertise arrangements in public organizations are organized. Yet, we currently lack a solid understanding of how organiza...

摘要：Local government capacity gaps are primary barriers to implementing climate adaptation and disaster resilience projects. While over 85% of US municipalities have fewer than 10,000 people, the extent to which capacity restricts adaptation in rural governments is not understood. This research addresses that gap by developing a national Rural Capacity Index using indicators that highlight challenges disproportionately faced by rural places. When results are mapped, the Midwest stands out for lack...

摘要：Based on archival data, this study utilizes the theoretical framework of policy transfer to conduct a case analysis of the history of PACH's transnational dissemination of its unique networking ideas, institutional models, and practices in the mid-20th century. The findings indicate that during the two stages before and after World War II, PACH's transnational transfer activities demonstrated different features in terms of motives, actors, content, routes, degrees, constraints, and facilitatin...

摘要：When algorithmic decision-making systems fail to function as intended, they become conduits for administrative error and risk producing arbitrary determinations through the very technologies meant to prevent them. Analysis of 71 federal and state court dockets contesting algorithm-based determinations in disability, unemployment, and nutrition assistance programs shows how this risk manifests in practice. Findings show that deviations from legally prescribed outcomes occur when the translation...

摘要：Representative bureaucracy theory posits that policy outcomes made by bureaucrats will reflect the interests of groups with whom they share social identities. However, the question remains whether each bureaucrat consistently acts on behalf of its constituents across a series of street-level interactions. Considering the sequential nature of state-citizen encounters, this study incorporates both social identity theory and identity theory into representative bureaucracy and examines whether Bla...

摘要：A growing body of experimental public administration research examines how structural arrangements in public services, such as delegating service delivery to public or private actors, shape citizens' blame attributions for service failures. However, the mechanisms underlying these attributions are less well understood. This article investigates two mechanisms, focusing on the mediating roles of citizens' perceptions of politicians' causal responsibility (perceived control over service delivery...

摘要：As climate governance gains urgency, green budgeting has emerged as a vital policy tool to align fiscal systems with environmental goals. Yet, institutional and leadership factors shaping its success remain underexplored. This study examines how issue ownership and ministerial leadership jointly influence green budgeting outcomes in South Korea. Using fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis of 13 central government bodies implementing green budgeting in 2023, we identify four pathways to hi...
