Connectivity, control, and changing perceptions
The COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented changes and disruptions to education systems worldwide, such as replacing in-person classes with online learning. However, the repercussions of this move to online learning on university students’ perceptions of their college experience have received sparse attention from researchers. This research analyzes data from in-depth interviews with 52 students at a South Korean University that went fully onlin…
The Tax Models in Japan and Korea
Existing studies have relied on the notion of developmentalism to explain key aspects of the tax policies in Japan and Korea. However, limited efforts have been made to explore these cases from a comparative perspective based on relevant evidence. Far fewer studies have been conducted for examining the contemporary evolution of the tax policies following major reforms since the 1990s. This article seeks to fill these gaps in the research. Employi…
Capital Taxation in Japan and South Korea (1990s-2010s)
This article examines the trajectories of capital tax policies in Japan and South Korea over recent decades. Historically, the two countries present an ideal case for studying fiscal developmentalism in East Asia. Total taxation was low, although capital owners assumed higher tax burdens than workers and consumers. From the 1990s to 2010s, both countries underwent a series of market-oriented tax reforms. A large body of political economy literatu…
Tax Burdens in Japan and South Korea
Although tax policies in Japan and South Korea have notably changed over recent decades, few studies have thoroughly examined the nature of these changes. Building on the average effective tax rates developed by Mendoza et al. (1994) and OECD researchers (Carey and Tchilinguirian 2000; Carey and Rabesona 2003) and extending and revising their original data, this study analyzes the structure of tax burdens in these two countries over 1995–2015. In…
Between government unilateralism and corporatist bargaining
Studies on welfare reform in advanced European countries have identified two established paths to welfare retrenchment: government unilateralism and corporatist bargaining. This study explores a more complicated path to welfare reform, wherein governments pursue ‘non-corporatist’ bargaining by actively combining features of unilateralism and negotiation. Such a hybrid case is explained by employing an ‘insider-outsider’ framework for public polic…
Intra-union politics and wage-setting coordination in Eurozone countries
This article revisits one of the established hypotheses in the literature on European industrial relations. Focusing on the context in which wages are set via central coordination, the hypothesis explores why the wage-setting system often collapses and is replaced with sectoral or company-level bargaining. The answer revolves around the issue of wage costs, with the main claim being that the change (that is, de-coordination) occurs when employers…
Regulatory Opportunism
The variation in national regulatory responses to the recent global financial crisis has been considerable. This article explores this variation using new data on conditions in 30 different OECD countries between 2009 and 2012. Using a mixed‐method approach which employs both fuzzy‐set qualitative comparative analysis and logistic regression, we test a number of hypotheses regarding regulatory response patterns in the banking sector. Our findings…
Between Positivism and Postmodernism
A growing body of scholarship has pointed to the problems of positivist assumptions that underlie policy analysis. Scholars have noted that neither the ends nor the methods by which judgments are derived are unambiguous or value‐free. In the place of a positivist epistemology, some scholars have argued for a view of policy analysis as a rhetorical activity. In this view, the analyst becomes a participant in strategies of persuasion in‐which the r…
