Promises and Pitfalls of Algorithm Use by State Authorities
Algorithmic systems are increasingly used by state agencies to inform decisions about humans. They produce scores on risks of recidivism in criminal justice, indicate the probability for a job seeker to find a job in the labor market, or calculate whether an applicant should get access to a certain university program. In this contribution, we take an interdisciplinary perspective, provide a bird’s eye view of the different key decisions that are …
Exploring New Challenges for Street-Level Bureaucrats through the Implementation of ADM Systems
Die Untersuchung neuer Herausforderungen für ‚Street-Level Bureaucrats‘ durch die Implementierung von ADM-Systemen Der Einsatz von Algorithmen zur Entscheidungsfindung hat Fragen zur Qualität, Fairness und Verantwortlichkeit algorithmenbasierter Entscheidungen aufgeworfen. Die Folgen dieser Technologie können jedoch nur dann verstanden werden, wenn man das Handeln der Akteure in den Blick nimmt, die diese Technologie in ihrem Arbeitsalltag einset…
Policy formation, termination and the multiple streams framework
The Multiple Streams Framework (MSF) has developed into one of the major theoretical lenses to explain policy change. However, it has been mostly used to explain policy formation whereas studies on policy termination remain scarce. This article addresses this gap. It combines the MSF and the literature on policy termination to study both the formation and the termination of one and the same policy. We explain why an algorithm-based university adm…
Uncertainty, risk and the use of algorithms in policy decisions
Algorithms are increasingly used in different domains of public policy. They help humans to profile unemployed, support administrations to detect tax fraud and give recidivism risk scores that judges or criminal justice managers take into account when they make bail decisions. In recent years, critics have increasingly pointed to ethical challenges of these tools and emphasized problems of discrimination, opaqueness or accountability, and compute…
