A comparison of management adaptations for joined‐up government
Despite considerable attention, helping agencies to work more effectively together is one of the most important contemporary challenges of public administration theory and practice. The New Zealand Better Public Services (BPS) Results program has been an unexpected success in this area and provides a positive case study. In 2012, the New Zealand government set targets for solving 11 important social problems where responsibility crossed agency bo…

Policy Dynamics
This article discusses policy dynamics, which involves an understanding of change. It explains some of the key concepts in systems analysis that are important for understanding dynamics. It then deals with dynamic processes that are dominated by negative feedback, followed by processes that are dominated by positive feedback. A brief description of the dynamic processes that unfold in only one direction is provided. The article concludes with a l…

Developmental Dynamics
Developmental dynamics are everywhere, from legislative coalition formation to the evolution of interorganizational cooperation to intraorganizational renewal. It is extremely hard to analyze such developmental processes. They are usually composed of multiple and interacting subprocesses; they are recursive; they are subject to external shocks; and the ability of participating actors to anticipate and then forestall their complete unfolding is hi…
Building the Policy Studies Enterprise
Policy studies has been one of the most dynamic parts of the social sciences over the past several decades. There has been substantial growth in the literature, the number of courses, the number of professionals who identify themselves with the field, and, arguably, in the impact on public sector and programs. The studies field is an eclectic one, claimed by public administrators, political scientists, economists, sociologists, psychologists, edu…
Accountability in Human Services Collaboratives--For What? and To Whom
If the hollowing out of the state means not only privatization but, more generally, the leakage of authority emanating from elected law makers, then certain administrative arrangements can be part of the hollowing out process. One such arrangement is the human services collaborative, a school-linked health and social service program. The logic of collaboration is to give more programmatic discretion, including policy discretion, to line-level pro…
Theoretical Issues in Policy Analysis
Moral Suasion and Taxpayer Compliance
Some evidence suggests that certain taxpayers might increase their “voluntary” compliance with the tax laws if presented with the right “moral appeals.” If such appeals were relatively inexpensive, compared to hiring more auditors, say, even small improvements in compliance would justify such efforts. However, would such appeals be “justified” in some philosophical, as opposed to economic or psychological, sense? The moral grounds for voluntary c…
From Practitioner Wisdom to Scholarly Knowledge and Back Again
The relationship between scholarly knowledge in public management and the conventional wisdom of capable practitioners needs to be clarified. If we accept that improving practical wisdom is the ultimate objective of scholarly studies in public management, practitioner experience can usefully serve as the starting point of such studies as well. This article uses the maxims about coping with “overhead agencies” supplied by one respected practitione…

The Dissemination of Policy Research to Policymakers
Suppose that, despite certain appearances, significant policy research results did in fact reach most of those practitioners who could and would make use of them, and in a relatively timely way. What processes might produce this result? Some conjectures are offered, along with certain political and policy implications
The Wall Socket Theory of Learning
Teachers of policy analysis lack a theory of how students actually learn. Applying “lessons” of general validity to specific circumstances is the essential skill to be mastered. It may be taught by emphasizing lessons of universal rather than conditional relevance, “coding” them so as to improve their memorability, and adjusting the codes to match the environmental cues that students are likely to encounter on the job. Because wall sockets are ev…
