  • Governing the Local Digital Transformation

    Open Access•Sabine Kuhlmann, Justine Marienfeldt et al.•ARTICLE•Public Administration•2026

    This study compares governance structures, policy formulation and implementation of administrative digitalization at the local level in three countries with different administrative traditions: France, Germany and the United Kingdom. A new analytical framework is developed that allows for a systematic comparison of administrative digitalization in different national contexts. To this end, we draw on concepts from comparative public administration…

  • Serving a greater purpose

    Open Access•Justine Marienfeldt•ARTICLE•Public Management Review•2025

    Against the background of digitalized service delivery and the rise of automated decision-making and artificial intelligence, this paper analyses public servants' perceptions. It examines meaningfulness, the perceived added value for employees, citizen-clients, and society. Based on a survey of 1,753 public servants in German vehicle registration, building permit, and tax authorities and a Fuzzy-Set Qualitative Comparative Analysis, results show …

  • Unpacking Approaches to Digitalization Strategy

    Open Access•Jakob Kühler, Tobias Polzer et al.•ARTICLE•Public Administration•2025•Cited by: 2•References: 14

    According to existing strategic management literature certain sets of alignments between the content and key elements of strategy enhance organizational performance. While local governments are increasingly adopting strategic approaches to manage digitalization, research that examines such alignments in strategy for digital change is scarce. To introduce such a relational perspective, we develop a framework for analyzing digitalization strategy. …

  • Changing tasks and changing public servants? The digitalisation and automation of public administrative work

    Open Access•Philipp Gräfe, Justine Marienfeldt et al.•ARTICLE•Information Polity•2024•References: 17

    Due to digitalisation, automation, and the use of artificial intelligence in policy implementation, public administrations are adapting their workflows and organisational structures. We explore the impact of the digital transformation on the nature of tasks as well as the subsequent (potentially) changing demand for competences and job profiles in public executive agencies, based on a comparative case study and semi-structured interviews with ove…

  • Does digital government hollow out the essence of street‐level bureaucracy? A systematic literature review of how digital tools' foster curtailment, enablement and continuation of street‐level decisio…

    Open Access•Justine Marienfeldt•ARTICLE•Social Policy and Administration•2024•Cited by: 18•References: 5

    The growing use of digital tools in policy implementation has altered the work of street‐level bureaucrats who are granted substantial discretionary power in decision‐making. Digital tools can constrain discretionary power, like the curtailment thesis proposed, or serve as action resources, like the enablement thesis suggested. This article assesses empirical evidence of the impact of digital tools on street‐level work and decision‐making in serv…
