Corporatisation in Local Government: Context, Evidence and Perspectives from 19 Countries
This book provides a comparison of municipally corporations at Europe, explaining and analysing what these municipally corporations look like.
Valuation of sector‐switching and politicization in the governance of corporatized public services
Corporatization has great potential for public service provision, but governments face severe challenges in recruiting executive directors (EDs) with relevant human capital. Debates arise about the roles of sector‐switching and politicization in public corporation governance, but a critical research gap exists. ED pay (EDP) is a crucial governance factor and signifies the valuation of ED human capital. This study links debates on sector‐switching…
Understanding vertical pay dispersion in the public sector: The role of publicness for manager-to-worker pay ratios and interdisciplinary agenda for future research
This study introduces vertical pay dispersion, a prevailing equity issue in discussions of organizations and society, to public management research. Bridging tournament and equity theory with the publicness debate, the study analyses the role of publicness dimensions —ownership, funding, and control— for manager-to-worker pay ratios of state-owned enterprises (SOEs). The results show that, for a unique five-year data set, ownership publicness par…

Personnel governance of corporatized public services: Effects of executive resources and corporation forms on turnover
Corporatization has potentials for public service provision but also induces far‐reaching governance challenges. Appointing executives for public corporations is a powerful personnel governance mechanism for public authorities to manage public service provision and resource dependencies. However, the theoretical understanding of executive turnover is limited. Drawing on resource dependence theory and embedding publicness fit perspectives, Cox reg…
Understanding self‐regulation for political control and policymaking: Effects of governance mechanisms on accountability
Self‐regulation has become a crucial governance mechanism for policymaking and political control. Although governments have increasingly implemented self‐regulation, its effects are under‐researched. International policymakers highlight the role of self‐regulation in extending accountability and political control of state‐owned enterprises (SOEs). A key accountability area—attracting widespread public interest—is the level of executive directors'…
Does performance-related pay and public service motivation research treat state-owned enterprises like a neglected Cinderella? A systematic literature review and agenda for future research on performa…
Studies of the performance effects of performance-related pay (PRP) and other-regarding motivations such as public service motivation (PSM) show that organizational goals and ownership structure play a crucial role, but these determinants are under-researched. In narrowing this gap, state-owned enterprises (SOEs) are relevant research objects. However, this systematic literature review categorizing different types of public sector organization re…
Employer Branding and Recruitment: Social Media Field Experiments Targeting Future Public Employees
Public sector recruitment is an urgent and prevailing challenge in both research and practice. Public employer branding is an important subject in the theoretical debate , but the mechanisms behind how certain signals of public employers affect individuals' interest in a job are under‐researched. By bridging signaling theory , social identity theory , and personnel economics , this study analyzes the effects of signals in advertisements related t…
Clearing the fog for an overall view on state-owned enterprises: Quality of aggregate holdings reporting by public administrations in 12 countries
In the context of current debates on sustainable public service provision, austerity, debts and cutback management, the governance and management of and in state-owned enterprises is a crucial issue. An aggregate holdings report is an important tool for public administrations to provide accountability and the necessary overall view on the institutional service provision structures of core administration and state-owned enterprises. On the basis o…
Improving public accountability by aligning reporting to organizational changes in public service provision - an empirical Internet study of all Austrian, German and Swiss towns and states from an age…
Consolidation of public sector budgets, fulfilment of fiscal policy requirements and reforms in the provision of public services have made cooperation increasingly important on the international stage. From the perspective of agency theory, this has led to greater information asymmetries and has altered reporting requirements. However, representative empirical studies concerning the provision of information on the Internet on the types of coopera…
