摘要：Our study contributes to the representative bureaucracy theory literature by testing the significance of majority identity, masculinity, and partisanship on responsiveness to social unrest. This study analyzes the responsiveness of police chiefs within the first week of the U.S. Capitol attack in Washington, D.C., on January 6th, 2021. Data are retrieved from social media accounts of police chiefs within local jurisdictions with at least 200,000 residents. An event history analysis is used to ...

摘要：Public agencies face diverse expectations from external actors regarding their responsiveness. However, systemic research explaining how institutional pressures arising from these expectations, particularly formal rules and informal norms, motivate public agencies to respond remains limited. By conducting a national-scale field experiment among 949 provincial-level agencies in China, this study tests the effect of regulative pressure from formal rules and normative pressure from informal norms...

摘要：While scholarship has documented how populist and authoritarian-leaning executives deform bureaucratic institutions, post-illiberal reconstruction has only begun to receive attention. This paper develops an exploratory framework distinguishing four repair strategies (neutralizing, rectifying, balancing, and democratic hardening) and two repair modes (formal-institutional and normative-capacity repair). Applying the heuristic to Poland, Brazil, and Hungary, we posit that the selection and limit...

摘要：Co-production is a complex and nuanced field of social action that operates at multiple levels of the policy cycle, closely interconnecting the roles, motivations, and outcomes of different social actors. But how co-production practices are shaped by gender is often overlooked. This article highlights the complexity of co-production practices within Indonesia's ambitious national strategy to reduce child stunting. Based on qualitative research of three local government areas implementing stunt...

摘要：The relationship between inequity and administrative burden constitutes a pivotal concern in the realm of public administration and policy, but how policy inequity (i.e., inequity in policy implementation) influences administrative burden has garnered scant attention. The present study employs data about public assistance programs in China spanning from 2015 to 2017 to examine the consequences of policy inequity on administrative burden. The empirical findings underscore that policy inequity a...

摘要：When governments adopt private-sector techniques to reform public services, a tension arises between efforts to improve administrative efficiency and to secure democratic values. While scholars acknowledge this tradeoff, the specific institutional processes through which managers resolve these competing values in practice remain a puzzle. To bridge this gap, this study presents a longitudinal case study of Lean Government initiatives, based on 2.5 years of ethnographic fieldwork in an Ohio mun...

摘要：Values are ideals of what is desirable for the individual, profession, organization, or institution. Institutional values attach to organizations because of their place in a political order, capturing broad governance concerns that extend beyond the details of management and technical administration. What institutional values do public administration scholars study, how do they study them, and how do those values relate to democracy? Our comprehensive and systematic review of the contents of p...

摘要：Digital platforms are transforming how governments deliver public services; however, many citizens still depend on third parties to access them. This article identifies and classifies these digital intermediaries drawing from a national survey in Chile-a country with high digitalization but deep digital inequality. We find two major types of intermediaries: close actors (family and peers) and hierarchical actors (politicians, bureaucrats, and community leaders). These intermediaries support ci...
