摘要:This article asks how the UK and Sweden regulate, prevent, or mitigate the consequences of mortgage-related household eviction and repossession. Contrary to initial expectations, the findings show a growth and diversity in both regulation and social spending in the UK intended to address this social issue; something that has not occurred in Sweden. In the UK's liberal 'regulatory welfare regime', the aim is to prevent the eviction and repossession of vulnerable borrowers who have defaulted on ...

摘要:This article examines the democratic impact of the UK coalition government's Transparency Agenda, focusing on the publication of all local government spending over 500 pound by councils in England.

摘要:Scholars' criticism of transparency in public-private partnerships (PPPs) often focuses on 'external' transparency, that is, the extent to which internal information is visible to the outside world.

In this article we analyse input, process, and output transparency from three different perspectives (institutional, cognit...

They also receive public funding and pose as a communication link between stakeholders and government. However, the use of facilitators challenges government to identify their benefits. Based on three case studies and interviews in biotechnology networks, the article opens ...

摘要:Maintaining mostly a national and EU-level focus, the transnational dimension has been overlooked in the policy instrumentation literature. Seeking to fill this gap, this article researches the factors that shape the choice and evolution of policy instruments in transnational administrations, namely above and beyond the state. In an empirical analysis of budget support, it finds that the preference of the European Commission for this development aid instrument is dependent upon transnational a...

摘要:Theory and evidence on the diffusion and antecedents of innovation in public organizations demonstrate that organizations respond to their environment and react by being more or less innovative. However, questions about the limits of responses to organizational task environments remain unexplored: in short, what is the appropriate level of environmental capacity and when does the environment become too complex or dynamic for innovation to occur? This study examines non-linear capacity, complex...
