ABSTRACT How does power-sharing in governments influence the control of corruption in Asia Pacific democracies? Studies find that voters can more easily hold elected officials accountable, providing them with incentives to control corruption, if levels of clarity of responsibility are sufficiently high. Most of these studies have focused on European countries, and have tended to measure power-sharing, which lowers clarity of responsibility, in terms of coalition governments. The wide variation in institutional arrangements across the democracies in the Asia Pacific region calls for a more nuanced evaluation of the conditions under which we should expect to find clarity of responsibility. Using original data on government characteristics in 19 Asia Pacific democracies from 1996 to 2019 and data on control of corruption from the World Bank, I find that higher levels of clarity of responsibility, captured by presidentialism and a higher share of decision-making power held by the head of government’s party, promote higher levels of corruption control.
政府权力分享如何影响亚太民主国家对腐败的控制?研究发现,如果责任明确程度足够高,选民可以更容易地让民选官员承担责任,为他们提供控制腐败的动力。这些研究大多集中在欧洲国家,并且倾向于衡量联合政府的权力分享,这降低了责任的明确性。亚太地区各民主国家体制安排的广泛差异要求对我们期望找到明确责任的条件进行更细致的评估。利用1996年至2019年19个亚太民主国家政府特征的原始数据和世界银行的腐败控制数据,我发现,总统制所体现的责任清晰度越高,政府政党领导人所拥有的决策权份额越高,就会促进腐败控制水平的提高。

Exploring the implementation gap: organizational autonomy and line managers’ participation in human resource decision–making 探索实施差距:组织自主性与直线经理参与人力资源决策

ABSTRACT This article explores the assumption that the level of human resource (HR) autonomy of an organisation influences line managers’ participation in HR decision-making, and it seeks to understand to what extent such a participation affects the effective implementation of HR practices. The results of an empirical study of HR policies and practices in three public hospitals in Pakistan reveal that greater level of HR autonomy of an organisation, with less pressure to comply with public personnel policies, leads to increased participation of middle managers in HR decision-making. This, in turn, helps to reduce the gap between the intended and implemented HR practices, which is important for human resource management (HRM) – organisational performance linkage. These findings contribute to ongoing discussions related to HRM in the public sector context and line management enactment of HR practices by highlighting the profound implications of the institutional context on the HR management of public hospitals. Additionally, this research proposes a bottom-up approach to HR practices, through its focus on the participation of managers in HR decision-making as a possible solution to better implementation of HR practices.
本文探讨了组织的人力资源(HR)自治水平影响直线经理参与人力资源决策的假设,并试图理解这种参与在多大程度上影响人力资源实践的有效实施。对巴基斯坦三家公立医院人力资源政策和实践的实证研究结果表明,一个组织的人力资源自治程度越高,遵守公共人事政策的压力越小,导致中层管理人员更多地参与人力资源决策。反过来,这有助于减少预期和实施的人力资源实践之间的差距,这对于人力资源管理(HRM) -组织绩效联系非常重要。这些发现通过强调机构背景对公立医院人力资源管理的深刻影响,有助于正在进行的与公共部门人力资源管理背景和人力资源实践的直线管理制定相关的讨论。此外,本研究提出了一种自下而上的人力资源实践方法,通过关注管理者参与人力资源决策,作为更好地实施人力资源实践的可能解决方案。

ABSTRACT The last two decades witnessed a significant rise in the use of behavioural insights in the design and successful implementation of public policies. This creative method of policy design and implementation, also known as “nudging”, makes use of biases in individual decision-making processes to increase the success of policy interventions. As of 2021, there are more than 200 nudge units in the world, some located in governments. This is a detailed case study of the creation and development of the behavioural public policy/nudge unit in the Turkish government, which is located in the Ministry of Trade. This unit emerged as a result of a successful policy experiment via knowledge transfer from the United Kingdom’s Behavioural Insights Team with help from the UK Embassy in Ankara. A detailed account of the creation process, organisational structure, activities, and future objectives of this unit is presented by using John Kingdon’s multiple streams model, reviewing the literature, analysing official documents, and conducting in-depth interviews. Lessons drawn from this case study can be helpful to actors from the public policy community in developing countries.
在过去的二十年中,在公共政策的设计和成功实施中,行为学见解的使用显著增加。这种创造性的政策设计和实施方法,也被称为“助推”,利用个人决策过程中的偏见来提高政策干预的成功率。截至2021年,世界上有200多个推动单位,其中一些位于政府。这是一个关于土耳其政府行为公共政策/推动单位的创建和发展的详细案例研究,该单位位于贸易部。在英国驻安卡拉大使馆的帮助下,英国行为洞察小组通过知识转移进行了成功的政策实验,该单位应运而生。通过使用John Kingdon的多流模型,回顾文献,分析官方文件,并进行深入访谈,详细介绍了该单元的创建过程,组织结构,活动和未来目标。从本案例研究中得出的经验教训可以对发展中国家公共政策界的行动者有所帮助。

ABSTRACT This article tests whether managers and staff evaluate artificial intelligence (AI)-based process innovations differently. Scholars have argued perceptions of innovation vary systematically as a function of an individual’s position within organisations. We test for attitudinal differences between managers and staff via an online experimental simulation fielded among working-age Taiwanese citizens employed in public sector employment (n = 600). Respondents engage in a 12-round simulation. We experimentally vary whether the respondent receives support from an AI decision support tool. We assess pre-intervention and post-intervention attitudes towards the use of AI for a suite of organisational tasks, using a difference-in-difference estimation approach to identify the causal effect of organisational position on innovation evaluation. Our findings suggest managers are more supportive of AI as a decision support tool than staff, and remain so after the simulation. Managers also increased their support of AI tools to a larger degree than staff.
本文测试了管理者和员工对基于人工智能(AI)的流程创新是否有不同的评价。学者们认为,对创新的看法随着个人在组织中的地位而系统性地变化。我们通过在线实验模拟,在公共部门工作的适龄台湾公民(n = 600)中测试管理者和员工之间的态度差异。受访者要进行12轮模拟。我们通过实验改变受访者是否从人工智能决策支持工具获得支持。我们评估了干预前和干预后对将人工智能用于一系列组织任务的态度,使用差中差估计方法来确定组织位置对创新评估的因果影响。我们的研究结果表明,管理者比员工更支持人工智能作为决策支持工具,并且在模拟之后仍然如此。管理人员对人工智能工具的支持程度也高于员工。

ABSTRACT Scholars of public administration are increasingly using experimental research to develop more robust causal inferences and greater methodological capacity. Against this backdrop, we examine the extent to which experimental research has taken hold in the Asia-Pacific region and assess regional capacity. Our review of 30 articles published by scholars based in the Asia-Pacific region in the public administration section of the Web of Science’s Journal Citation Reports finds that the regional capacity for experimental research is concentrated in a small number of institutions and strongly supplemented through international collaboration. Topics studied reflect the advent of behavioural public administration. Although progress is being made in reporting experimental designs, much work is needed in the region to bring greater transparency to scholarship. We conclude by encouraging scholars to more robustly implement and report experimental research and by outlining future directions.
公共行政学者越来越多地使用实验研究来发展更有力的因果推理和更大的方法能力。在此背景下,我们考察了实验性研究在亚太地区开展的程度,并评估了该地区的能力。我们对Web of Science的期刊引文报告(Journal Citation Reports)公共管理板块中亚太地区学者发表的30篇文章的回顾发现,该地区的实验研究能力集中在少数机构中,并通过国际合作得到有力补充。所研究的主题反映了行为公共行政的出现。尽管在报告实验设计方面正在取得进展,但该地区还需要做大量工作,以提高学术研究的透明度。最后,我们鼓励学者们更有力地实施和报告实验研究,并概述未来的发展方向。

ABSTRACT Across the developed world food insecurity has become a growing problem, including in contemporary Japan. A common response to food insecurity has been the development of food banks typically run by voluntary associations often in partnership with public agencies and private firms. Considerable ingenuity exists in the Japanese food bank sector that can inform public policymaking in addressing the problem of food insecurity. Adopting the conceptual prism offered by the co-production literature, we study three food banks: Second Harvest Nagoya, Food Bank Iwate and Food Bank Kanagawa. While the modus operandi employed by the three food banks differs considerably, a common thread underpinning their success resides in the fact that they all combine the comparative institutional advantages of their collaborating partner organisations in the local public and the private sectors.
在整个发达国家,粮食不安全已成为一个日益严重的问题,包括当代日本。对粮食不安全的一种共同反应是发展粮食银行,通常由自愿协会与公共机构和私营公司合作经营。日本食品银行部门存在着相当大的独创性,可以为解决食品不安全问题的公共政策制定提供信息。采用联合生产文献提供的概念棱镜,我们研究了三个食物银行:第二丰收名古屋,岩手食物银行和神奈川食物银行。虽然三家食物银行采用的运作方式有很大不同,但它们成功的共同点在于,它们都结合了当地公共和私营部门合作伙伴机构的相对制度优势。

What can public administration scholars learn from the economics controversies in public-private partnerships? 公共管理学者可以从公私伙伴关系中的经济学争议中学到什么?

ABSTRACT Public-Private Partnership (PPP) is the label often applied to long-term contractual arrangements when the private sector provides management and operating services for public infrastructure and puts private finance at risk. Political and economic logics have long been applied when analysing the success of such infrastructure delivery mechanisms. Mixed empirical performance results has been a recurring theme. Decades of PPP implementation experience has improved our knowledge of the political and policy “logic” of PPP success, but public administration scholars know less about the logic of the economist, about how economic thinking has evolved and its effects on PPP evaluation. This article explores discussions and debates analysing the economics of PPPs. It challenges the PPP economic efficiency argument, not from the perspective of public administration or public policy (which now repeat well-rehearsed arguments) but from the perspective of economics itself. The article argues overall that there are strongly competing economics logics relevant to PPPs, and that public administration scholars need to be more aware of these internal economics controversies and debates rather than assuming that economics is a settled homogenous discipline. Furthermore, it argues that this heterogeneity of economic logics is a central reason why PPP performance debates continue to be unresolved.
公私伙伴关系(public - private Partnership, PPP)是指私营部门为公共基础设施提供管理和运营服务,并使私人融资面临风险的长期合同安排。在分析此类基础设施交付机制的成功与否时,长期以来一直采用政治和经济逻辑。混合的实证绩效结果一直是一个反复出现的主题。几十年的PPP实施经验提高了我们对PPP成功的政治和政策“逻辑”的认识,但公共管理学者对经济学家的逻辑、经济思维的演变及其对PPP评估的影响所知甚少。本文探讨了分析ppp经济的讨论和辩论。它从经济学本身的角度,而不是从公共行政或公共政策的角度,对购买力平价经济效率的论点提出了挑战。文章总体上认为,与ppp相关的经济学逻辑存在激烈的竞争,公共行政学者需要更多地意识到这些内部的经济学争议和辩论,而不是假设经济学是一门固定的同质学科。此外,本文认为,这种经济逻辑的异质性是购买力平价绩效争论仍未解决的主要原因。

ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic has imposed changes on governments across the world. Scholars responded to this crisis with a wide range of comparative studies and theoretical alternatives that addressed “big questions” of public administration. To summarise what we now know about governments, citizens, and civil society as a result of this pandemic, we conduct a systematic review of 188 articles using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. While the range of topics addressed was broad, we began our review by narrowing our focus ex-ante to studies that addressed three “big questions” of public administration: (1) What are the instruments of collective action?; (2) How shall tensions between national and subnational governments be resolved?; and (3) How can processes of societal learning be improved? Two additional “big questions” later emerged from the review process itself: (4) How can public trust in governments be fostered? and (5) Do public services enhance social equity? Answers to each of these questions are reviewed in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
2019冠状病毒病大流行给世界各国政府带来了变革。学者们以广泛的比较研究和理论替代来应对这场危机,这些研究解决了公共行政的“大问题”。为了总结我们现在对这次大流行对政府、公民和民间社会的了解,我们使用系统评价和荟萃分析(PRISMA)指南的首选报告项目对188篇文章进行了系统评价。虽然讨论的主题范围很广,但我们在开始审查时,先将重点缩小到涉及公共行政三个“大问题”的研究上:(1)集体行动的工具是什么?(2)如何解决中央政府与地方政府之间的紧张关系?(3)如何改进社会学习过程?审查过程本身后来又出现了另外两个“大问题”:(4)如何培养公众对政府的信任?(5)公共服务是否促进了社会公平?本文将在2019冠状病毒病大流行的背景下对这些问题的答案进行审查。

Scholars responded to this crisis with a wide range of comparative studies and theoretical alternatives that addressed “big questions” of public administration. To summarise what we now know about governments, citizens, and civil society as a result of this pandemic, we conduct a systematic review of 188 articles using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. While the range of topics addressed was broad, we began our review by narrowing our focus ex-ante to studies that addressed three “big questions” of public administration: (1) What are the instruments of collective action?; (2) How shall tensions between national and subnational governments be resolved?; and (3) How can processes of societal learning be improved? Two additional “big questions” later emerged from the review process itself: (4) How can public trust in governments be fostered? and (5) Do public services enhance social equity? Answers to each of these questions are reviewed in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.","PeriodicalId":43945,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Public Administration","volume":"125 1 1","pages":"131 - 168"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89333390","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ABSTRACT What happens when the qualities that have served the administrative state - thoughtful, careful, deliberative actions - meet the demands of a world that is connected and increasingly operating in real time? Public administration systems must increasingly consider pace as a factor of success going forward.
当服务于行政国家的品质——深思熟虑、谨慎、审慎的行为——满足一个相互联系、日益实时运作的世界的需求时,会发生什么?公共行政系统必须越来越多地把速度视为今后取得成功的一个因素。
