  摘要：Using four consecutive International City/County Management Association alternative service delivery arrangement surveys, this study explores the determinants of service shedding by local government in the United States. Our findings indicate that service shedding is fairly common, with almost 70% of jurisdictions experiencing at least one termination between 1992 and 1997. With regards to why jurisdictions shed services, we find that prior delivery mode is very influential. Specifically, serv...
• The Emergence of Collaborations AI翻译

  摘要：In the literature on collaborative governance, it is often assumed that collaborative capacity (i.e., the ability of actors to coordinate their activities around public issues in a collaborative fashion) is primarily generated during the collaborative process itself. In this article, we show that collaborative capacity can already emerge before the start of collaborations, in the form of a common ground and the bridging position that some actors attain through their involvement in different pr...

  摘要：This article investigates the roles and impacts of public involvement in public- private partnerships (PPPs). Our findings contribute to the literature on public-private collaborations by demonstrating the ways that the facilitation of deliberative activities can provide administrative benefits to PPPs. The results suggest that although public involvement can improve support from citizens and political leaders for PPPs and improve the tailoring of project designs to local conditions, the proce...

• A Systems Theory Approach to Innovation Implementation: Why Organizational Location Matters AI翻译
  作者：Moldogaziev, Tima T.; Resh, William G.

  摘要：In this study, we evaluate the success of adopted innovations in public organizations as a function of the relative source of innovation vis-a-vis the organizational environment. We argue that the source of innovation will be varyingly associated with subsequent perceptions of implementation success depending on locational characteristics of the source and the innovation's outcome locus. Neither top-down nor bottom-up arguments of implementation offer a complete picture of perceived implementa...
• Disentangling the Causal Mechanisms of Representative Bureaucracy: Evidence From Assignment of Students to Gifted Programs AI翻译

  摘要：Scholars have suggested that the benefits of representative bureaucracy arise from bureaucrats acting in the interests of clients who share their characteristics, increased diversity encouraging even nonminority bureaucrats work to further the interests of minority clients, and/or the actions of clients that are more responsive to bureaucrats that share their characteristics. Despite decades of research, the literature has been unable to empirically disentangle these mechanisms, primarily beca...
• Agency Structure and the Distribution of Federal Spending AI翻译
  作者：Anderson, Sarah E.; Potoski, Matthew
  作者单位：University of California System; University of California Santa Barbara
  摘要：Agency structure can shape agency independence in two ways. First, it can insulate agencies from policy demands from political overseers in Congress and the executive branch. Second, agency structure can shape the range of available options from which agencies can select policy. In this article, we present a novel empirical approach that evaluates both types of effects by modeling the mean and variance of agencies' policy decisions. Analyses of US distributive program spending across 10 congre...
