  • Where power and scholarship collide

    Open AccessAmy E Smith, Norma M Riccucci et al.ARTICLEPublic Administration Review2025References: 83

    Publishing is a source of capital and power in academia, and coauthoring is a common way to publish. However, studies in public administration have not yet examined the structure of coauthorship patterns, how these patterns have evolved over time, or the extent to which these patterns are gendered. We use bibliometric data to examine coauthorship in public administration scholarship over four decades with a particular focus on gendered patterns. …

  • Workplace Incivility and Its Impact on Public Employees’ Job Search Behavior

    Open AccessDeneen M Hatmaker, Amy E Smith et al.ARTICLEPublic Personnel Management2024

    While extensive research documents that workplace incivility has negative consequences for both employees and organizations, there has been limited research on how workplace incivility experiences affect public-sector employees.

  • Reimagining race and gender in public administration and public policy

    Open AccessSanjay K Pandey, Amy E Smith et al.ARTICLEPublic Administration Review2022Cited by: 9References: 35

    Public administration scholarship on race and gender is motivated by normative concerns about social equity, and dominated by work on bureaucracy and its representativeness. Despite decades of research on race and gender in public administration, there has been limited engagement with racializing and gendering processes. Relatedly, scant attention is paid to other disciplines that center on race and gender in theorizing. The purpose of this revie…

    Open AccessElizabeth Brown, Amy Smith et al.ARTICLETheoretical Criminology2017Cited by: 1References: 13

    Challenges to mass incarceration often come from places seeking to bolster “community” sanctions and community-based alternatives to punishment. In the City of Care, local community activists challenged growing rates of juvenile incarceration and the overrepresentation of youth of color in juvenile detention by advocating for a community-based “circle of care”. These efforts resulted in the local juvenile court embracing the “least restrictive in…

  • Some Ceilings Have More Cracks

    Open AccessAmy E Smith, Karen Monaghan et al.ARTICLEThe American Review of Public…2011Cited by: 27References: 32

    In recent decades, representative bureaucracy has been a core area of interest, both in theory and in practice, in public administration. The focus on representative bureaucracy is important because the characteristics of bureaucrats influence the nature, scope, and implementation of public policies. Integrating management literature on men and women in leadership with existing work on representative bureaucracy, this study constructed a new data…

  • Then Let's Have a Dialogue

    David P Mccaffrey, Amy E Smith et al.ARTICLEJournal of Public Administration…2006Cited by: 19References: 13

    Public and private organizations deal closely with each other on regulatory issues. Newer forms of regulation rely on shared enforcement and supervisory responsibilities, regulatory negotiation, and other methods that try to get beyond remote public commands while maintaining effective public involvement. This article examines how regulators and firms deal with each other, the interdependence that forms between them in the course of their work, a…
