• A NEW POLITICS OF GOVERNANCE OR AN OLD POLITICS OF CENTRALLOCAL RELATIONS? LABOUR'S REFORM OF SOCIAL HOUSING TENANCIES IN ENGLAND AI翻译
  作者：Laffin, Martin
  作者单位：University of London; Queen Mary University London
  摘要：This article questions the orthoxody that government has been eclipsed by governance and uses the reform of English social housing tenancies as a critical test of governance theory. The preconditions for governance exist in social housing as its delivery has been largely removed from local authorities and disaggregated into a multiplicity of non-profit housing associations. Yet, contrary to the implications of governance theory, central policymakers have maintained their ascendancy over centra...
• DROWNING THE DEADWEIGHT IN THE RHETORIC OF ECONOMISM: WHAT SPORT POLICY, FREE SWIMMING, AND EMA TELL US ABOUT PUBLIC SERVICES AFTER THE CRASH AI翻译

  摘要：In light of the Coalition government's plans to consider new and radical approaches to public service provision', this paper discusses the decision making process within central government and argues central government's response to the crisis reflects ongoing trends in Whitehall. The paper explores these trends using sport policy, Free Swimming and the Educational Maintenance Allowance. These funding decisions show the continued power of the Treasury within Whitehall and the extension of the ...
• GENDER, GREEDY INSTITUTIONS, AND THE DEPARTMENTAL COURT AI翻译

  摘要：This article seeks to identify, map and understand the ways in which the everyday beliefs and practices of British central government departments embed social constructions of masculinity and femininity. It draws on observational fieldwork and repeat interviews conducted between 2002 and 2004 to analyse the everyday practices of departmental courts. We argue these courts have gendered practices and are greedy institutions'. We unpack their practices of hierarchy, civility, rationality, gendere...
• REGULATORY OPPORTUNISM: CROSS-NATIONAL PATTERNS IN NATIONAL BANKING REGULATORY RESPONSES FOLLOWING THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS AI翻译
  作者：Young, Kevin L.; Park, Sung Ho

  摘要：The variation in national regulatory responses to the recent global financial crisis has been considerable. This article explores this variation using new data on conditions in 30 different OECD countries between 2009 and 2012. Using a mixed-method approach which employs both fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis and logistic regression, we test a number of hypotheses regarding regulatory response patterns in the banking sector. Our findings suggest that while state intervention during th...
• REPRESENTATIVE BUREAUCRACY, GENDER, AND POLICING: THE CASE OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ARRESTS IN ENGLAND AI翻译
  作者：Andrews, Rhys; Miller, Karen Johnston
  作者单位：Cardiff University; Glasgow Caledonian University
  摘要：Drawing on theories of representative bureaucracy, we examine whether increased representation of women in police forces in England leads to a higher rate of domestic violence arrests. To do so, we use panel regression techniques to analyze the links between gender representation and variations in the arrest of domestic abuse perpetrators when controlling for a range of other relevant variables, including the relative prosperity of the local population and the size of the police force. Our sta...

  摘要：This study explores how English local governments managed high levels of worker migration from Eastern Europe in the wake of the enlargement of the European Union in 2004. Theories of local government capacity suggest that strong central administration and vibrant community organizational life can increase the likelihood that public service performance will be maintained despite sudden shifts in the external environment. We explore the interactive effects of immigration and administrative and ...

• THE (GOLDEN) AGE OF THE WELFARE STATE: INTERROGATING A CONVENTIONAL WISDOM AI翻译
  作者：Wincott, Daniel
  作者单位：Cardiff University
  摘要：The idea of a (golden) age pervades most academic analysis and debate about the welfare state. This article interrogates this largely unquestioned epochal image of welfare history which is, in effect, a shared conventional wisdom. That vast and often disputatious scholarly literatures should share a conventional epochal axiom is remarkable. So is the absence of academic debate focused on this idea, which is both pervasive and vague. Perhaps paradoxically, our easy recognition of the (golden) a...

• RESIGNED BUT SATISFIED: THE NEGATIVE IMPACT OF PUBLIC SERVICE MOTIVATION AND RED TAPE ON WORK SATISFACTION AI翻译
  作者：Giauque, David; Ritz, Adrian; Varone, Frederic; Anderfuhren-Biget, Simon

  摘要：This article examines the relationship between red tape, Public Service Motivation (PSM) and a particular work outcome labelled resigned satisfaction. Using data from a national survey of over 3754 public servants working at the municipal level in Switzerland, this study shows the importance of looking more closely at the concept of work satisfaction and, furthermore, of thoroughly investigating the impact of the different PSM dimensions on work outcomes. Unsurprisingly, research findings show...
