This study reviews its use by public administration scholars, analyzing articles from the Web of Science database with bibliometric tools and Artificial Intelligence for lexical and semantic analysis. The analysis concluded that BSC is mainly used in local government for performan…
How has stakeholder theory served the public administration literature? In search of the intellectual structure of the field
This investigation aims to contribute to the intellectual structure of public administration stakeholder theory. There is a need for dedicated effort to understand the real contribution of the most cited references in the field. The literature review is carried out using bibliometric and lexical analyses. The main conclusion is that articles have used concepts from four theoretical bases: collaborative governance, stakeholder salience, legitimacy…
Herbert Simon's Legacy for Public Administration
Herbert Simon's pioneering developments on bounded rationality and artificial intelligence (AI) have had a profound and lasting impact on public administration. This paper systematically examines Simon's legacy, exploring how his concepts have shaped scholarship in three core areas: decision‐making, human performance, and organizational knowledge. By connecting Simon's insights into contemporary advancements in AI, we highlight several avenues fo…
Stakeholder theory in the public sector domain
Stakeholder theory has been widely studied and used in private companies because of its potential to achieve satisfactory organizational outcomes and create sustainable value among different stakeholder groups. However, the stakeholder theory principles still need to be consolidated in the public administration field. To advance this discussion, this study undertook a bibliometric analysis to collect, analyze, and synthesize the research that had…

The public administration and theoretical economics references focus on the themes of state, society, institutions, democracy, governance, and corruption. This investigation is a quantitative regression study based on multivariate panel data of 1…

Public value creation and appropriation mechanisms in public–private partnerships
Scholars have extensively investigated public value creation and appropriation concerning public services delivered strictly by the government and public–private arrangements, such as public–private partnerships (PPPs). However, such studies often focus on value for money and economic performance criteria. This study examines how public value can be created and appropriated in PPP settings and how public value mechanisms can influence these pheno…
The Myth of Mayoral Leadership in Local Government Resource Allocation
Resource allocation is paramount to local government strategic planning. There is, however, a gap in studies examining the determining factors of resource allocation decisions in the public sector. This study contributes to the public management literature by providing additional theories for explaining local government resource allocation in a very important sector in the local government context: educational services. Stakeholder theory provide…
Public management reform in Brazil (2002-2019)
Since the end of the military period ahead of the Brazilian government in 1985, Brazil has had eight presidents swinging from lefts- and right-wing political orientations. The political direction turned from the right (Sarney and Collor 1985–1992) to the centre (Fernando Henrique 1994–2002) to the left (Lula and Dilma 2003–2016), and back to the right (Bolsonaro 2019–). Despite political orientation differences, all of them made (Bolsonaro is sti…

Stakeholder influence and local government performance
Although stakeholder theory has been on the academic agenda for more than 30 years, empirical evidence is still scant about stakeholders’ influence as determinant factors of local governments’ performance. Evidence from 82 empirical studies on stakeholder influence as a source of local government effectiveness is assessed in this article. The choice of studies was based in a systematic literature review, encompassing articles published in the per…

Discurso e Poder na Formulação de Políticas Públicas Ambientais
As definições de poder de Foucault, Elias e Bourdieu, representam o ponto de partida teórico deste trabalho, na medida em que consideram o poder como algo que depende das relações estabelecidas, e que é simbólico. Assim, parte-se do pressuposto que o poder pode ser exercido pela linguagem, e neste caso, a análise crítica do discurso pode ser um método útil para se capturar as estratégias de poder dos atores em processos decisórios. Analisou-se o …
Materialism
Materialism is the philosophy that explains the nature of reality and the world – physical, social, cultural, and so on – in terms of matter. Philosophical materialism stands in opposition to the philosophy of idealism – that ideas, thought, and mind are the essential nature of reality and the world of matter is a reflection of these. The economic, political, social, and intellectual ferment of the 1700s and 1800s gave rise to several streams of …
Is Small Beautiful? Testing the Direct and Nonlinear Effects of Size on Municipal Performance
Although the relationship between managerial capacity and local government performance is well established, research into the direct effect of population size on performance has yielded mixed findings. Using data for 787 municipalities in the Brazilian state of Minas Gerais, this article examines the direct and nonlinear effects (moderating and curvilinear) of population size on municipal performance. Performance is measured in terms of property …

From Exclusion to Inclusion
A Critique of The Truly Disadvantaged
Scholars such as William J. Wilson, public policy analysts, politicians, media personalities and journalists have, in recent years, turned their attention to the pervasive and growing poverty, permanent unemployment and inequality in American society. They have noted the disproportionate occurrence of these phenomena among African Americans-especially women and children-and in the "inner city ghettos" of the former centers of industrial productio…
