The Conditional Impacts of Organizations and Supervisors on the Tension Between Officers and Citizens
Under what organizational conditions are police officers more likely to use lethal force against racial minority suspects in the United States? Using identity and institutional theories, we find that perceived legitimacy is likely to determine how street‐level bureaucrats and managers define their identities and influence the disproportionate killings of minorities in the United States. In sum, we show that bureaucrats, either street‐level White …
Social Media, Citizens’ Distrust in the Government, and Misinformation During a National Crisis
This study tests whether misinformation on social media undermines citizens' capability to perceive the factual public health information provided by the government during the pandemic and whether such misinformation impacts citizens' distrust in the government. The results of the survey experiment indicate that the simple presence of misinformation on a social media platform distorts citizens' perceptions of factual pandemic information, while t…
Community Policing Policies and the Use of Lethal Force
In this research, we examine whether community policing policies (CPPs), community policing training for new recruits or regular community policing training, impact who is killed by a law enforcement officer in terms of the victim's race. We seek to present one of the few empirical studies of evidence on whether community policing has the potential to address racial disparities. Using a unique dataset and multinomial logistic models, we found tha…
Mapping policy agenda in international development
This study examines the pattern of central policy agendas discussed in international development over the last three decades. It highlights the predominant countries and issues by examining the theme‐based periodicals of a leading international development agency. It analyses the visibility of countries and identifies main topics by examining the OECD Development Centre Working Papers. Findings indicate that certain topics (e.g., market, economy,…
The Effect of Perceived Organizational and Supervisory Support on Employee Engagement During Covid-19 Crises
This article examines how organizational and supervisory supports, directly and indirectly, impact employee engagement in U.S. federal agencies during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study applies two analysis models for two different sample groups: federal workers who were required to be physically present at a worksite during the pandemic and those who were not required to do so. Drawing from the sampling frame comprised of “permanently employed, n…
Advancing Public Entrepreneurship through State Government Capacity and Competitiveness
Many policymakers and administrators have directed efforts to increase foreign manufacturing investment (FMI) due to its potential to raise the employment rate, technological progress, and productivity in their regions. Despite foreign manufacturers’ significant influence on the economies of their host countries, institutional and policy uncertainty creates significant entry barriers for multinational manufacturers. Focusing solely on American st…
Measuring the effect of performance management in local economic development policy
Does performance management use in local governments actually bring about performance improvement? If so, can performance be attributed to the use of particular tools or approaches? This study examines the particular performance measurement tools and approaches being utilised within Tax Increment Finance (TIF) districts in one metropolitan area – the Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex – to ascertain whether they are positively associated with district ta…
How Ostrom's design principles apply to large-scale commons
Many conventional studies on common-pool resources (CPRs) have examined the governance of local resources such as fisheries, forests, grazing systems, irrigation systems, agriculture, water resources, and land tenure. However, a limited selection of recent studies has been interested in large-scale commons such as climate change, air pollution, and transboundary disputes. Despite Ostrom's design principles (DPs) providing a robust framework for s…
Better service delivery, more satisfied citizens? The mediating effects of local government management capacity in South Korea
Does decentralisation lead to higher citizens' satisfaction with the public services that local governments provide? Despite arguments that decentralisation improves public service delivery, studies have not successfully verified the effects of decentralisation on citizen evaluations of local government services. Given the importance of increased local empowerment in promoting desired public goods, we examine whether the hypothesised advantages o…
Welfare, innovation capacity, and economic performance
Despite years of increased federal welfare spending, it is unclear how federal financial investments in welfare areas influence state economies. Based on the theory of functional federalism, this paper examines the impact of federal welfare spending on state economic performance. Employing error correction models, this research finds that state economic growth and volatility are directly observed by the long-term impact of welfare spending. The r…
Getting Tickets for the Presidential Election in Korea
This study attempts to explain in what conditions political parties in Korea reshaped their old candidate selection method (CSM) and adopted open primaries. This study shows that open primaries were adopted by compromise between major and minor factions due to their electoral or factional benefits. Second, it shows that it was the electoral utility of open primaries, rather than the demand for party democratization, that drove the adoption of the…
The Lesson from the Modern American Federalism
Contemporary U.S. federalism particularly since the late1960s has evolved over the course of pluralism alternating exercisable governmental powers between the federal and state governments. The complexity of the power relationship has been observed in a variety of policies during the past quarter-century as has the discussion of whether or not contemporary U.S. federalism has developed in a way that increase effective public policy performance. F…
What explains immigrants’ national identity
This study explores the extent to which socio-economic factors in the U.S., and the exposure to the growing popular culture in Korea, influence Korean immigrants’ American identity. While a great number of cultural and social psychological studies have identified that socio-economic and intergroup factors have the potential to affect an immigrants’ national identity, studies have been negligent in examining the direct impact of popular culture fr…
Do White Law Enforcement Officers Target Minority Suspects
The debate over possible bias in the use of deadly force has recently been exacerbated by highly publicized killings of African American males around the country. While much research has been conducted examining police behavior, little has been done to investigate the impact of race on police behavior. This article aims to answer this question: are white police officers more likely to use lethal force on minority suspects or people of a specific …
Corporate tax policy and multinational corporations in the American states
A small, but growing, body of literature examines how corporate tax policy affects foreign firm location decisions in the United States. Yet, existing studies have not investigated how taxing choices interact in different state institutional characteristics, particularly a degree of fiscal independence of a local government in a state. The large literature on fiscal decentralization suggests that taxing and spending powers delegated to subnationa…
Do economic sanctions impair target economies
While the International Relations literature has long debated whether or not economic sanctions are an effective foreign policy tool, it neglects to empirically examine the damage sanctions impose on target economies. This study presents two theoretical explanations about the impact of sanctions on target countries’ economies, and collects extensive empirical data to test such theoretical connections in three areas: international trade; foreign d…
Red states, blue states
The alleged polarization between the so-called red (Republican) and blue (Democratic) states during the presidential elections has been examined using only voter surveys. Focusing on the recent thirteen national elections from 1964 to 2012, we examine social, political, institutional, and policy indicators of the 50 American states to (1) gauge the extent to which national election results reflect significant policy and political differences betw…
