• A Great and Revolutionary Law? The First Four Years of India's Right to Information Act AI翻译
  作者：Roberts, Alasdair
  作者单位：Suffolk University
  摘要：India's 2005 Right to Information Act (RTIA) is among dozens of national laws recently adopted similar to the U. S. Freedom of Information Act. Drawing on several large studies examining the act's implementation, the author finds that Indian citizens filed about 2 million requests for information under the RTIA during its first two and half years. However, use of the law was constrained by uneven public awareness, poor public planning, and bureaucratic indifference or outright hostility. Requi...
• A Report On Reporting: Why Peers Report Integrity and Law Violations in Public Organizations AI翻译
  作者：de Graaf, Gjalt
  作者单位：Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam
  摘要：The archives of three bureaus of integrity are analyzed in order to study the reasons for reporting integrity and law violations within public organizations. Peer reporting accounts for only a small percentage of cases; most investigations originate from routine and continuous institutional controls. What are the reasons peers choose to report or not report? A sense of justice is most important, followed by self-protection and protection of the wrongdoer. The most important reason against comi...

  摘要：Personal interactions between clients and street-level bureaucrats are significant in explaining why street-level bureaucrats behave as they do. Not all bureaucracies that apply program rules to individuals, however, engage face-to-face with their clientele. As more intake procedures are automated, such one-on-one encounters decrease. The author generates and tests hypotheses about frontline bureaucratic decision making in the Social Security Disability program, by applying bounded rationality...
• Emotions in Management and the Management of Emotions: The Impact of Emotional Intelligence and Organizational Politics on Public Sector Employees AI翻译
  作者：Vigoda-Gadot, Eran; Meisler, Gallit
  作者单位：University of Haifa; University of Haifa
  摘要：Readers are invited to a rendezvous with the meaning of the heart and emotions in public administration. Despite the growing interest in recent years in emotional intelligence within the managerial literature, too little has been written about emotional intelligence within the public sector. This is surprising in light of New Public Management voices that stress flexibility, responsiveness, and a focus on the needs and demands of citizens. The functionality of the heart in a mind-oriented bure...

  摘要：Public administration continues to face an identity crisis that turns on the question of whether the animating principles of the discipline are to be discovered in the political foundations of a given regime, or whether they are to be found in more universal and transcendent principles of scientific management. Herbert J. Storing reframed the identity crisis as a problem arising from America's constitutional system of governance. In doing so, he created an important role for public administrat...

  摘要：What are the attitudes of public managers who have had full-time private sector work experience? Public managers with private sector work experience report different perspectives when compared to their counterparts who have spent their entire careers in the public sector Though private sector work experience negatively correlates with job satisfaction, it only does so for the new switcher, whose last job was in the private sector. As careers advance, the negative impact seems to wane, leaving ...

• The Changing Nature ... and Costs ... of Election Administration AI翻译
  作者：Montjoy, Robert S.
  作者单位：University of Louisiana System; University of New Orleans
  摘要：Changes during the last decade have significantly altered the nature of election administration and driven up its costs. Interviews with practitioner representatives from the elections community reveal a number of issues that continue to influence this field. Expense data from two counties illustrate how policy changes affect election costs. Scheduled ending of federal funding threatens a perfect storm in election finance that may undermine hard-won advances from 2000 to 2010. Possible cost re...
• Public versus Private Managers: How Public and Private Managers Differ in Leadership Behavior AI翻译
  作者：Andersen, Jon Aarum
  作者单位：Inland Norway University of Applied Sciences
  摘要：This article aims to find out whether there are behavioral differences between public and private sector managers. Two groups of public managers (managers of social insurance agencies and public school principals) and a group of private managers (two samples) are investigated. Behavioral dimensions are investigated including leadership style (task, relationship, and change orientation), decision-making style (the functions of sensing, intuition, thinking, and feeling), and motivation profile (...
