摘要:How do informal actors achieve rapid bureaucratic dismantlement without formal authority? Analyzing the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) initiative, this article argues that when performance-based legitimacy displaces procedural legitimacy as the dominant evaluative framework, informal actors can bypass established safeguards and reshape government institutions. Three concepts capture this process: advisory capture, legitimacy regime transition, and constrained coercion. The analysis...

摘要:Literature on value developed along two influential interpretations: public values as normative expectations about policymaking and governance and public value expressing added or lost benefits experienced through public action. Although normatively linked, these interpretations evolved as separate streams, limiting conceptual clarity and cumulative analysis. In response, this article develops value as praxis as an analytical framework that treats the relationship between public value and publ...

摘要:How people are treated in the workplace is of increasing concern, with many scholars arguing that the government, as an employer, should set the standard for equitable treatment. While attention to equity in public administration has grown in research and practice, minimal work has comparatively explored discrimination in the public and non-public sectors. Drawing on data from the 2018 European Social Survey, this study explores possible differences in how public and non-public employees perce...

摘要:Propelled by the New Public Management reforms, the infusion of market values in the public-nonprofit interface is argued to have increased nonprofit organizations' (NPOs) capacity to influence public policy through increased access to government, yet often at the cost of abandoning their critical stance toward the said government. Drawing on cross-country survey data collected from NPOs across three different welfare states (N = 779), this study examines to what extent key aspects of nonprofi...

摘要:The current movement for evidence-based policymaking advocates the use of scientific knowledge in government. However, in practice, civil servants often prioritize different types of knowledge depending on their decision-making roles and the context. Using survey responses from 259 civil servants across three US state governments and 36 semistructured interviews, we employ a mixed-method approach to understand how civil servants strategically utilize various types of knowledge to meet differen...

摘要:Taxpayers often have conflicting views on what constitutes fair taxation and how tax revenues should be allocated. We work with Vermont legislators on the policy concern of sentiment in a property tax setting, given the Vermont Supreme Court ruling around the principle of educational equality. To explore tax sentiment in a complex and highly regulated environment, we use a behavioral public administration approach for our experiment. Our findings are threefold: (1) we identify four central the...

摘要:Institutional distance shapes how private partners participate in cross-country public-private partnership (PPP) projects, yet its effects remain underexplored. Drawing on organizational institutionalism, we argue that institutional distance generates adaptation pressures that prompt private partners to engage in sustained collaborations. Such collaborations lead private partners to build relationships and connect into networks, within which positional advantages are accumulated. Using data on...
