摘要

摘要对多层次避免指责策略的研究通常假设:(1)政府更喜欢将责任转移到其他层次;(2)正式责任的不明确分配使对单个行为者的指责分配变得复杂。考虑到这些策略的时间位置——在预期中或作为对不良事件的反应——文章测试了这些假设。文章以墨西哥城的空气质量政策为例,利用因果过程追踪来建立导致预期战略及其展开的机制。如果相关政策工具的责任分配明确,主要政治行为者分享权力,那么来自不同党派的政府层面就会采取联合预期战略,以避免危机并保持稳定。机制崩溃导致反应行为和政策变化。重新分配权力的环境变化可能会破坏安排的稳定,导致被动的指责游戏,促进政策变化。

From anticipatory strategies to reactive blame games in multi-level settings: the role of structure and politics in stability and policy change
Abstract Studies of multi-level blame avoidance strategies generally assume that (1) governments prefer to shift responsibility to other levels and (2) an unclear distribution of formal responsibilities complicates blame allocation to a single actor. Considering the temporal location of such strategies – in anticipation or as a reaction to adverse events – the article tests these assumptions. Drawing on the case of air quality policy in Mexico City, the article uses causal process tracing to develop the mechanism leading to an anticipatory strategy and its unfolding. If the distribution of responsibilities on connected policy instruments is clear and major political actors share power, then government levels from different parties engage in a joint anticipatory strategy to avoid crisis and keep stability. The mechanism breakdown leads to reactive behaviour and policy change. Contextual changes redistributing power can destabilise the arrangements, leading to reactive blame games, fostering policy change.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Public Policy applies social science theories and concepts to significant political, economic and social issues and to the ways in which public policies are made. Its articles deal with topics of concern to public policy scholars in America, Europe, Japan and other advanced industrial nations. The journal often publishes articles that cut across disciplines, such as environmental issues, international political economy, regulatory policy and European Union processes. Its peer reviewers come from up to a dozen social science disciplines and countries across three continents, thus ensuring both analytic rigour and accuracy in reference to national and policy context.
