  摘要：This article argues that administrative burden-that is, an individual's experience of policy implementation as onerous-is an important consideration for administrators and influences their views on policy and governance options. The authors test this proposition in the policy area of election administration using a mixed-method assessment of local election officials. They find that the perceived administrative burden of policies is associated with a preference to shift responsibilities to othe...

  摘要：Networks play an important role in collaboration, but previous work has not examined the different roles of elected and appointed officials in these networks. This article investigates local economic development policy networks to address (1) the extent to which the structure of relationships reflects the efforts of actors to efficiently collect and process information or to enhance credible commitment; (2) the extent to which differences in incentives and risk aversion lead to differences in ...

  摘要：Survey research is a common tool for assessing public opinions, perceptions, attitudes, and behaviors for analyses in many social science disciplines. Yet there is little knowledge regarding how specific elements of survey research methodology are applied in practice in public administration. This article examines five mainstream public administration journals over an eight-year period regarding current methodological practice, organized around the total survey error framework. The findings sh...

• A Framework for Assessing Power in Collaborative Governance Processes AI翻译
  作者：Purdy, Jill M.
  作者单位：University of Washington; University of Washington Tacoma; University of Washington; University of Washington Tacoma
  摘要：The growing use of collaborative methods of governance raises concerns about the relative power of participants in such processes and the potential for exclusion or domination of some parties. This research offers a framework for assessing power that considers authority, resources, and discursive legitimacy as sources of power and considers the participants, the process design, and the content of collaborative governance processes as arenas for power use. A case study of a collaborative govern...
• Social Equities and Inequities in Practice: Street-Level Workers as Agents and Pragmatists AI翻译
  作者：Maynard-Moody, Steven; Musheno, Michael
  作者单位：University of Kansas; University of Kansas; University of California System; University of California Berkeley
  摘要：Street-level workers' judgments, decisions, and actions touch on questions of social equity, a dominant theme of H. George Frederickson's deep contributions to public administration scholarship. Based on empirical work, the authors question the dominant implementation-control-discretion narrative and suggest an alternative framing based on the concepts of agency and pragmatic improvisation. Street-level workers are often conservers of institutional norms and practices, but their work surfaces ...

  作者单位：University of Kansas; University of Illinois System; University of Illinois Chicago; University of Illinois Chicago Hospital
  摘要：Widespread government contracting for nonprofit social service delivery has resulted in extensive reliance on networks of service providers, which involve complicated accountability dynamics. The literature has tended to emphasize formal aspects of accountability in contract relationships, focusing on the specification of contract terms, performance measures, reporting relationships, and stipulated consequences. Far less attention has been focused on the interorganizational and interpersonal b...
