摘要：As administrations increasingly rely on interorganizational networks to organize public service provision, this article inspects the role resourcing plays in the way managers working in networks cope in the face of extreme events. Using comparative analyses of fieldwork in the context of two emergency service networks in two major cities in Germany and the US, we introduce the concept of resource transposition. This concept holds the potential to explain why and how networks might perform well...

摘要：Since the comparative turn in European integration research, analyses of the legislative process of the EU have taken inspiration from research on national political systems. While the consequences of the formal monopoly of initiative of the Commission are much analysed, it is only recently that the role of the Court in EU legislation has been further appreciated. In the literature, it is disputed how far case law constrains the EU legislator. The analysis of the 2016 proposal for a revision o...

摘要：Recent studies suggest that Uber and other tech start-ups disrupt markets through regulatory entrepreneurship. This practice describes how such companies operate outside of regulation or in legal gray areas before mobilizing their customers in support of regulatory change. Financial technology (FinTech) is sometimes called the Uber of banking, but banking reveals different political dynamics than the car-for-hire sector. Exploring the rise of online-only banks in the UK and Germany, this artic...

摘要：This article analyses how non-managerial professionals in public service organizations experience the tension between managerial and professional institutional logics and manage to minimize it through identity work. By studying how academics in ten Canadian public universities talk about their routine work activities, it is found that they interpret the institutional contradictions between these logics as threats to their identities and mitigate them by undertaking discursive strategies to aut...

摘要：The purpose of this study is to explore the characteristics of local government's reputation management in response to public protests under the dual pressure from higher-level authorities and the public. This study connects reputation management theory to the literature on local governments in the dual pressure dilemma. By comparing three cases of how local governments respond to public protests against nuclear facilities in China, we conclude that different pressures perceived by local gover...

摘要：This article examines the conditions under which the European Parliament (EP) effectively exercises its informal agenda setting powers to directly influence the content of the European Union's policy agenda through the use of 'own initiative reports' or EPOIR. We test three models of EPOIR influence (salience, linkage and ideology) utilizing a newly created dataset of all substantive references to EPOIR within Commission pre-legislative communications and legislative proposals produced between...

摘要：Policy entrepreneurs-individuals who champion a policy and engage in intense advocacy to secure it-are most frequently characterized as political elites or individuals well connected to such elites. However, an emerging literature suggests that street-level bureaucrats who deliver government services to the public can also prosecute policy entrepreneurship. There has been little investigation of how these actors differ from elite-level policy entrepreneurs who focus on agenda-setting and initi...

摘要：Transparency has been widely promoted as a tool for improving public service delivery; however, empirical evidence is inconclusive. We suggest that the influence of transparency on service provision is contingent on the nature of the service. Specifically, we argue that transparency is more likely to improve the quality of service provision when street-level discretion is high. Discretion increases information asymmetries, and, in the absence of transparency, allows officials to target public ...

摘要：This study examined the relationships between multiple dimensions of accountability and organizational performance. The data from higher education institutions in Korea were analysed using ordinary least squares multiple regressions and ordered logistic regressions. We analysed our models with the whole data and the public institutions only data to detect any sectoral differences in the relationships. The overall results show that higher accountability generates more desirable outcomes for org...
