Advancing public policy to expose it: A preliminary framework for guerrilla coproduction
Who Really Represents Me? The Case of Afro-Latinx Bureaucratic Representation in New York City Public Schools
As demographic groups' heterogeneity increases, questions emerge about how elected and unelected political representatives respond to such diversity. Representative bureaucracy scholarship suggests that representatives will rely on shared values and interests with clients of their demographic group to make decisions or implement policies that improve the group's status. However, differences in immigration histories, demographic characteristics, l…
Race, Ethnicity, and Immigration: Assessing the Link between Passive and Active Representation for Foreign-Born Clients
Representative bureaucracy scholars contend that clients are likely to experience greater benefits and more positive policy outcomes from public agencies when bureaucrats share salient demographic characteristics. Despite the large body of evidence that shows a link between passive and active representation, much of the extant representative bureaucracy literature rests on an assumption of group homogeneity. However, racial groups have a great de…

Representation's Effect on Latinx College Graduation Rates
Objective College enrollments among Latinx students have increased by 12 percent in the last 14 years, but the group's overall graduation rate has only increased by 5 percent, leading researchers to reevaluate the predictors of completion for Latinx students. This study explores the relationship between Latinx graduation rates and various forms of representation. Methods Random effect modeling using institutional‐level data collected from the Int…
The Effect of the External Environment on Bureaucratic Representation: Assessing the Passive to Active Representation Link
The literature on the link between passive and active representation is well established, but there is still some debate on why and how passive representation translates into active representation in some settings and not others. Some scholars suggest the salience of the policy issue and discretion to act yields a linkage between passive and active representation, while others contend researchers are simply identifying correlates of the two conce…
Straddling identities: Identity cross-pressures on Black immigrants’ policy preferences
The rich Black Politics literature suggests that Blacks in the US think about the well-being of their racial group in political decision-making; consequently, Blacks should continue to behave similarly as long as they perceive their life chances as inextricably linked to their racial identity. We suggest that it is becoming increasingly important to examine the centrality of other identities in Black political behavior as the ethnic diversity amo…
Why Some and Not Others?” The Determinants of the Quality and Prestige of Public Graduate Research Universities
We offer the first systematic assessment of the factors thought to account for the quality and prestige of public research universities in the United States. We take account, too, of those potential causal factors identified in both contemporary and early descriptive research on these institutions. Our findings indicate that attributes of universities and their states from the first half of the twentieth century as well as some of their contempor…
