Abstract

This special issue investigates the impact of populism and democratic backsliding on street-level bureaucracy (SLB) across various countries and contexts. The cooccurrence of populism and democratic erosion significantly alters public administration, particularly affecting public sector employees responsible for policy implementation. This issue explores how populist strategies differ in their application to SLBs as compared to the Civil Service, the distinctive challenges SLBs encounter due to populism and democratic backsliding, and the pressures exacerbated during crises. By examining studies from Brazil, Mexico, Poland, Czechia, Hungary, Switzerland, and the United States, the papers highlight the interplay between political pressures and frontline service delivery. The findings underscore the necessity of understanding the relationship between democratic backsliding, populism, and SLBs, proposing a research agenda to further explore these dynamics and their implications for public administration and policy implementation.

导言 "街头官僚主义、民粹主义和民主倒退"
本特刊探讨了民粹主义和民主倒退在不同国家和背景下对基层官僚机构(SLB)的影响。民粹主义和民主侵蚀同时出现,极大地改变了公共行政,尤其影响到负责政策执行的公共部门员工。本期探讨了民粹主义战略在基层官僚机构中的应用与公务员制度有何不同,基层官僚机构因民粹主义和民主倒退而遇到的独特挑战,以及危机期间加剧的压力。通过对巴西、墨西哥、波兰、捷克、匈牙利、瑞士和美国的研究,论文强调了政治压力与一线服务提供之间的相互作用。研究结果强调了理解民主倒退、民粹主义和可持续的预算编制之间关系的必要性,提出了进一步探索这些动态及其对公共行政和政策实施影响的研究议程。
