Organizational Design and Public Outcomes Among New Universities in Developing Countries
Many public higher education systems in countries in Asia and Africa have sought a new approach in response to their modern environments. Built in the 1950s following decolonization, they seek to overcome colonial regulations, norms, and practices to produce new public outcomes focused on communities and market forces. Drawing from in-depth case studies of seven new universities in India, we assess the role of organizational design and public val…
Who “We” are matters
Public participation in government remains far from ubiquitous despite calls for a modern administrative state defined by co-production. This research offers a new perspective on public participation by considering the relationship between organizational identity orientation (OIO) managerial views of the process and the frequency of engagement between local governments, citizens, and non-profits. Results show that in collectivistic public organiz…
Policing, Technology, and Public Values
There is a great deal of research investigating how technologies produce efficiencies for police departments. Criminal justice research often focuses on a single technology and from a single perspective—the police—noting how technologies increase efficiency and efficacy for police departments. Researchers in science and technology studies also investigate how police departments adopt and use technology, but typically focus on the tensions between…

A critical analysis of the study of gender and technology in government
Research at the intersection of feminist organizational theory and techno-science scholarship notes the importance of gender in technology design, adoption, implementation, and use within organizations and how technology in the workplace shapes and is shaped by gender. While governments are committed to advancing gender equity in the workplace, feminist theory is rarely applied to the analysis of the use, adoption, and implementation of technolog…

Nonprofit Organizations and Civil Society in the United States
LeRoux and Feeney’s Nonprofit Organizations and Civil Society in the United States makes a departure from existing nonprofit texts on the market: rather than focus on management, it focuses on nonprofit organizations and their contributions to the social, political, and economic dimensions of society. The book also covers the nexus between nonprofits and civil society. This text offers a theory-oriented undergraduate introduction to the nonprofit…

Mentor Matching
One of the few mentoring topics that has received little attention in the abundant mentoring literature is the determinants of organically formed (as opposed for formal program-based) mentoring relationships. The authors propose a Goodness of Fit model, which outlines the basic elements of the mentor—protégé match, viewing the relationship as a social exchange based on the fit among mentor and protégé preferences, endowments, and the content of k…
Mentoring and network ties
Using questionnaire data obtained from a sample of state government managers, our study examines social capital foci (network ties) of mentoring relations. Others have shown that network ties are relevant to career development and advance. We begin with the assumption that enhanced network ties are generally beneficial. We investigate variation in mentorships, which enhance network ties within the focal organization and within organizations exter…
The Rebirth of Patronage
Current trends in the U.S. political system threaten an increase in patronage and a return to the political problems of the 1800s. Modern-day patronage is strongly related to two popular efforts to reform government: the rollback of the civil service system and the privatization of government services. These reforms, aimed at reducing the negative outcomes of bureaucracy, have had the unfortunate outcome of eliminating policies designed to protec…
Toward a Useful Theory of Mentoring
In this review and critique of mentoring theory and research, the authors identify persistent problems in the development of mentoring theory. Their conceptual analysis highlights these problems with a “thought experiment” illustrating the inability of mentoring theory and research to resolve certain fundamental issues, the resolution of which is a prerequisite for the advancement of explanatory theory. They conclude with ideas about demarcating …
