  摘要：In this virtual issue, we bring together a collection of research articles that-although not usually grouped together-all illustrate the importance of citizen-state interactions. Specifically, we include articles that directly incorporate citizens' perceptions, attitudes, experiences of, or behavior related to public administration. About 10% of all JPART articles over the life of the journal so far (1991-2015) met our inclusion criteria. Of those articles, we selected seven for this virtual i...

  摘要：In recent years, performance-based accountability reforms have become widespread-particularly in the public education system-as a means of enhancing service delivery and citizens' knowledge of and engagement with government. While an ever-growing literature has considered the overall effects of these administrative systems, few have fully considered the effect these have on underlying subgroups of relevance and inequalities in responses across these groups. In this article, we examine how citi...
• Citizens' Evaluations of the Public Sector: Evidence From Two Large-Scale Experiments AI翻译

  摘要：The performance of public sector agencies constitutes a longstanding concern in both policy and academia. Recent research suggests that citizens associate the public sector with ineffectiveness and wastefulness. This article approaches this debate by examining how citizens' perception of whether an organization is public or not affects their performance assessment. The study is based on two large-scale experiments conducted among representative samples of Danish citizens. The findings show tha...
• Collaboration, Venus, and Mars: The Gender Factor in Intersectoral Relations AI翻译

  摘要：Scholarship across disciplines offers evidence that gender plays a significant role in organizational dynamics. Gender differences in preferences, attitudes, and behaviors affect employee behavior and organizational outcomes. This article extends the gender factor into the realm of interorganizational and intersectoral collaboration to examine not just whether, but also how gender affects the management of these relationships. We analyze these differences in the context of local government-non...

• Predicting Budgetary Change: The Effect of Performance Gaps AI翻译
  作者：Flink, Carla M.

  摘要：Literature on punctuated equilibrium theory (PET) explains the reasons organizations undergo incremental and punctuated policy changes. This study examines PET within the budgeting process. Alongside disproportionate information processing and institutional friction, recent innovations in PET have incorporated organizational history and theories from public administration to explain budgetary fluctuations. Part of the work merging PET with public administration has demonstrated how policy feed...
• Finding the Golden Mean: Country Size and the Performance of National Bureaucracies AI翻译
  作者：Jugl, Marlene
  作者单位：Hertie School
  摘要：This article contributes to the debate on environmental determinants of public service performance by analyzing the effect of country size (population size) on public service effectiveness. It theoretically describes and empirically tests a size-induced trade-off between economies and diseconomies of scale in national bureaucracies. The main argument is that public service performance increases with size due to economies of scale, but it decreases after the optimal country size when bureaucrac...
