  摘要：This case study focuses on extending research knowledge about the politics of public management policymaking in Spain. The case involves legislating to change politically sensitive features of the central government and administration. The study explains such analytically significant event conditions as: an agenda-setting process that made a policy issue of the formal, structural attributes of state administration, an alternative-specification process that proceeded without complication, and a...

  摘要：When do regulatory agencies expand, following the emergence of novel technologies? This article presents a verbal model that suggests that a regulator is most likely to announce that it has statutory authority to regulate a novel technology when its reputation is at stake. This is most likely to occur when (1) new information becomes available to the regulator regarding the seriousness of the anticipated harm of a novel technology, or (2) a rival regulator attempts to formalize its regulatory ...

  摘要：Numerous policy tools could be employed in attempting to mitigate climate change through reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Direct cost imposition through the taxation of carbon content of fossil fuels has long enjoyed support from diverse policy analysts but has proven highly difficult to advance politically in the United States and many other nations. This article considers the evolving American experience in climate policy tool selection, including extended engagement by many states over th...

  作者：Corbett, Anne
  作者单位：University of London; London School Economics & Political Science
  摘要：A watershed in the politics of public management in France was crossed in 2001, when the French president and prime minister signed off a law initiated by the French Parliament to reform the planning and control of public expenditure. This legislation, the Organic Law on Laws of Finance of August 1, 2001 (generally known as the LOLF), requires public authorities to adopt performance-oriented ideas and public management approaches, and seeks to rebalance executive and parliamentary powers over ...
• Regulating Rule-Making via Impact Assessment AI翻译
  作者：Radaelli, Claudio M.
  作者单位：University of Exeter
  摘要：In their attempt to promote better regulation, governments have ended up with increasing regulation of rule-making. Regulatory impact assessment (RIA) is a manifestation of this trend. This article draws on the positive political economy hypothesis that RIA is an administrative control device. Rational politicians-positive political economy argues-design administrative requirements to solve problems of political uncertainty. This is a rather abstract hypothesis but with clearly observable impl...
• Dysfunctional Policy Transfer in National Tax Blacklists AI翻译
  作者：Sharman, J. C.
  作者单位：Griffith University; Griffith University
  摘要：Common sense and much of the policy transfer literature suggests that learning from abroad delivers better policy at lower cost. In contrast, this article argues that policy transfer in tax blacklists has been a dysfunctional process tending to replicate errors. Rather than reflecting learning, normative mimicry, or market pressures, over-committed policymakers have responded to complexity and crisis by unreflectively cutting and pasting from foreign models. Facing a short-term political imper...

The case of Estonia poses a number of puzzles, and the article seeks to explain the institutional choices in Estonia...
