The perceived power of clients, administrative burden and take-up of social benefits
This work offers a new theoretical contribution that advances our understanding of the take-up of social rights. According to standard theoretical models, the decision of clients whether to collect the social benefits to which they are entitled is influenced by the policy design and administrative levels. Our argument is that the clients are not only affected by, but also have potential influence on policy design and the extent of the administrat…
The unexpected impact of geographic access on take-up of social benefits
Among the factors identified to account for non-take-up of social benefits, there has been limited research on 'process costs', particularly regarding the impact of geographic access. Using Israeli data on field office openings from 1993 to 2021, this paper investigates the impact of geographic access on the take-up of the five largest social security programs in Israel. Based on staggered openings and closings of social security field offices, w…
A Fast Track to Social Rights? Passported Benefits and Administrative Burden
Passported benefits are additional benefits provided to individual or households based on a previous eligibility to a 'primary' social security benefit. Although passported benefits should be easier to claim, in reality the claiming process is often cumbersome and results in low take-up. Drawing on an Israeli case study, we offer a conceptual framework to categorize and analyse the varieties of passported benefits along five dimensions: the eligi…
Revealed political favoritism
Budget institutions and government effectiveness
Purpose Do budget institutions play a role in explaining why government effectiveness is higher in some advanced countries than in others? Design/methodology/approach Employing an original panel data set that covers four years (1991, 2003, 2007 and 2012), we find that budget centralization is associated with lower government effectiveness in OECD countries after accounting for a list of control variables, such as gross domestic product (GDP) per …
Representative bureaucracy and impartial policing
Representative bureaucracy theory expects minority bureaucrats to advance the interests of minority citizens. Yet, little attention has been given to the variation in the acceptability, incentives and risks of representation across bureaucratic domains. Analysis of over two million police vehicle stops from four different US departments reveals that African American police officers do not treat African Americans preferentially, yet they mitigate …
Biased Policy and Political Behavior
Unlike the previous literature on mass policy feedback, the present study argues that a negative message embodied in public policy may foster or dampen political participation depending on social group affiliation. The policy change we use to examine the effect of biased policy (a perceived negative message) on political behavior is the removal of elected mayors that were replaced by an appointed committee in a large number of Arab and Jewish mun…
Does campaign spending affect electoral outcomes
Fiscal Rules and the Composition of Government Expenditures in OECD Countries
Since the 1990s many OECD countries have adopted fiscal rules. After the adoption of these rules, the ratio of social transfers to government consumption substantially declined, and it recovered following the global economic crisis. Using a sample of 22 OECD countries, we found a negative effect of fiscal rules on the ratio of social transfers to government consumption. This finding implies that fiscal rules are effective, but not necessarily bin…
