Does public participation in supranational policymaking enhance the European Commission’s legislative agenda-setting success
Under what conditions does public participation in supranational policymaking help the European Commission strengthen its legislative agenda-setting power and minimise the change of legislative proposals by European legislators? We answer by explaining how public participation shapes the EC’s agenda-setting power through strengthening (weakening) the input, output, and process legitimacy of legislative proposals. We argue that key features of pub…
Responsive to What? Explaining the Information Quality of Public Comments on Bureaucratic Policymaking Using a Text‐as‐Data Approach
What drives the quality of information that public comments on bureaucratic policymaking provide? We address this question along a text‐as‐data approach, develop and validate four measures capturing the multidimensional concept of information quality, and apply it to an original dataset covering more than 20,000 public comments across 1036 policy acts issued by the European Commission between 2016 and 2021. We argue that the interplay of informat…
Blessing or curse? A critical review of the paradoxical consequences of direct public funding for political parties
Direct public funding (DPF) is a crucial resource for political parties in many of the world’s democracies. While research into the consequences of DPF has grown in prominence since the turn of the century, few efforts have been made to synthesize its findings. This article takes the first steps in doing so. Viewing DPF as an independent variable, we assess the impacts that party subsidization has on electoral competition, party organizations, pa…
Mapping the policy space of public consultations
Public consultations strengthen the informational advantage and policy legitimacy of bureaucracies by allowing them to collect and aggregate information on stakeholder preferences. How well consultations perform this function depends on the dimensional structure and complexity of the policy spaces describing them. Building on the research on spatial models of politics, we derive a set of expectations about the dimensional structure and policy con…
Do political finance reforms really reduce corruption? A replication study
In their 2021 article published in the British Journal of Political Science, Calla Hummel, John Gerring, and Thomas Burt (henceforth Hummel et al.) examine the relationship between political finance reforms and corruption, concluding that state funding of political parties reduces corruption by diminishing reliance on private financing. Our replication study challenges this conclusion based on data accuracy and operationalization issues of their …
Rethinking public funding of parties and corruption
Does the provision of state subsidies to political parties reduce their involvement in corruption? Existing research provides inconclusive evidence on this relationship, perhaps because cross‐national studies on public funding and corruption are often limited by regulation‐based indexes of political financing and by very general corruption measures. In this study, we use focused measures for both phenomena to investigate whether more generous pub…
Understanding patterns of stakeholder participation in public commenting on bureaucratic policymaking
What explains the levels and diversity of stakeholder participation in public commenting on bureaucratic policymaking? We examine a novel dataset on a stakeholder engagement mechanism recently introduced by the European Commission containing information about 1258 events organized between 2016 and 2019. We highlight the importance of administrative acts' characteristics and acknowledge the role of policy area type. Acts corresponding to early pol…
Direct public funding of political parties
This article presents an original dataset of direct public funding (DPF) of political parties across 27 post-communist regimes from the outset of transition until 2020. It represents the first systematic, and detailed account of the actual level of DPF provided to parties outside established democracies in terms of geographical and temporal coverage. The dataset has a panel format and includes information on DPF per registered voter and cast ball…
