Fear in Public Policy Compliance: Citizens' Response to Crisis‐Induced Policies
This article brings together social psychology and public policy literature in a mixed‐methods research design to explore how fear influences non‐compliance with challenging policies during crises. Building on Terror Management Theory, we argue that fear affects individual citizens' compliance tendencies. The argument is empirically explored by looking at COVID‐19 vaccination policies in Bulgaria and Sweden and surveying unvaccinated individuals.…
Linking crises: Inter-crisis learning and the European Commission’s approach to the National Recovery and Resilience Plans
The article examines potential linkages between the management of the Eurozone crisis and the EU’s economic response to the COVID-19 pandemic. It does so by focusing on the Commission and its approach to conditionality-based lending. The analysis employs the concept of inter-crisis learning to argue that the lessons the Commission drew from the Eurozone crisis informed its conditionality-related proposals for the National Recovery and Resilience …
Paths to trust: Explaining citizens' trust to experts and evidence‐informed policymaking during the Covid ‐19 pandemic
The COVID‐19 pandemic brought forward new questions about the efficient implementation of arduous public policies. Drawing evidence from the pandemic, this article argues that, during crises, policymakers will often opt for evidence‐informed policymaking, hoping for better results. In line with previous studies, we show that citizens trust more policies coming from experts rather than policymakers and elected politicians. We also add nuance to th…
Dysfunction and Pathology in Brussels: The European Commission and the Politics of Debt Restructuring
The European Union (EU) studies literature has not engaged much with instances in which the European Commission exhibited dysfunctional and pathological behaviour. The paper employs a least likely case to suggest that the Commission might adopt such behaviour even under adverse circumstances. It examines the Commission's public opposition to a private sector involvement scheme for Greece in 2011, despite member states and investors favouring such…
Regaining Trust: Evidence-Informed Policymaking during the First Phase of the Covid-19 Crisis in Greece
Analysing the handling of the pandemic's first phase in Greece, the article attempts to explain the reasons for its relative success. It suggests four main reasons: First, the predominance of evidence-informed policymaking led by strong and decisive leadership. Second, a timely and firm crisis response, driven by the prior experience of other European countries with the pandemic. Third, the public sector's digital turn and a tight scheme of intra…
