Beyond Covid‐19: Five commentaries on reimagining governance for future crises and resilience
Several Canadian and international scholars offer commentaries on the implications of the COVID‐19 pandemic for governments and public service institutions, and fruitful directions for public administration research and practice. This second suite of commentaries considers the challenges confronting governments as a result of the COVID‐19 pandemic and in the decades to come with an increasingly broad lens: the need to understand and rethink the a…

Pre‐existing condition: Taking media coverage into account when preparing for H1N1
This article examines the claim that the media exaggerated the threat of H1N1, prompting an immediate demand for limited vaccine. We compare The Australian 's and the Daily Telegraph 's coverage of H1N1 with that of The Globe and Mail , which was comparatively critical of government performance. The events of October 2009 underscore the difficulty and importance of responding to media coverage of “uncertain risks” (Renn ), risks for which there i…

Cyber-Security and Risk Management in an Interoperable World: An Examination of Governmental Action in North America
The Internet facilitates a level of interoperability that generates considerable innovation and opportunity.

Our objectives are threefold: to gain a fuller appre…

Bug reactions: Considering US government and UK government Y2K operations in light of media coverage and public opinion polls
This paper considers the manner and extent to which the media and public opinion influenced the US government's and the UK government's reaction to the Y2K computer bug. The data concerning Y2K come largely from primary and secondary government documents and newspaper articles and public opinion polls from the period as well as semi-structured interviews conducted with civil servants, representatives from the IT sector, and IT journalists. The pa…
The Emperor’s New Computers: Y2K (Re)Visited
In order to deal with the threat of Y2K (the Millennium Bug) the UK Government directed an uncreative, resource‐heavy, centralized operation with standardized reporting requirements. The project impacted almost all government systems, from the critical to the mundane. The government’s position was made worse by administrative changes that it had initiated in the 1980s and 1990s that had created a much larger network of delivery partners while at …
A Lost Opportunity: A Reappraisal of the Kennedy Administration's China Policy in 1963
This article explores US policy towards China under President Kennedy. It focuses on 1963, when it is argued a major reappraisal took place under the auspices of State Department Officers Averell Harriman, Roger Hilsman and James Thomson. It concludes that a twin-track approach was developed which gave the President a greater degree of flexibility in his dealing with the PRC and laid the basis for the policy to be followed in a second term Kenned…

Civil society is thought to contribute to consolidating democracy, but exactly how this happens is not especially well understood. This article examines the recent experiences of ‘democracy groups’ in Thailand. While acknowledging there are other factors that contribute to democratic consolidation, it finds the cumulative effect of Thailand's intermediating organizations, such as democracy groups, appears to be a redistribution of information and…
