While many observers have traced problems with existing global governance architectures to deal with contemporary problems to the lack of appropriate treaties at the international level, recent work on regime fragmentation and the interplay between regimes suggests that a lack of a central and integrated international regime may be overcome through improved multi-level governance efforts. Much can be learned in this area from sectoral experiences in areas such as water and forestry as well as non-resource areas such as migration where such strong regimes have failed to develop.","PeriodicalId":35027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Policy","volume":"14 1","pages":"303-319"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41572534","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there is still a rising need for informal social protection, which are provided through community, religious institutions and non-governmental organisations. The aim of the paper is to analyse the role of non-governmental organisations and religious groups in providing social aid to vulnerable groups in Mauritius. We first undertake focus group discussions with eight cultural and religious institutions and second we use data from a survey carried out with 30 non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to analyse the different social security schemes provided. Our results show that informal social protection is very much present in the Mauritian society and while religious groups in general are more inclined to aid the socially excluded population pertaining to their respective religious belief or community group, while non-governmental organisations tend to help the vulnerable groups in general.","PeriodicalId":35027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Policy","volume":"14 1","pages":"391-407"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41348818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By using the smart specialisation concept in its documents, plans, and regional fieldwork, the European Union (EU) is attempting to be perceived as a growth-efficient organisation. This analysis illustrated that smart specialisation is not reserved for the use of the EU only. Rather, the organisation for economic cooperation and development, World Bank, and international monetary fund have also, albeit to a lesser degree, used the same concept, thereby demonstrating the power of smart specialisation as a slogan. Smart specialisation seems to be the slogan at the EU level; however, several regions in the EU have followed the principles of the smart specialisation process and have transformed the slogan into more powerful regional brands. Although it is possible to interpret smart specialisation as a slogan, it is also a process in which the EU is the rule maker and gatekeeper for funding innovations and investments in the region.","PeriodicalId":35027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Policy","volume":"14 1","pages":"320-342"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJPP.2018.096665","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47837019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The key research question is: What were the underlying vulnerabilities prior to the crisis and how did regulation help moderate these weaknesses? Following a case study approach, events before, during and after the crisis are recounted. Industry data coupled with practitioner insight were used to clarify the causes of the crisis and the key regulatory actions taken to help get the microfinance industry back on its feet. A lack of regulatory oversight and political opportunism lead to the tragic events in Andhra Pradesh. Subsequent regulations introduced by the Reserve Bank of India, including caps on the size and number of loans to an individual, and restrictions on loan use resulted in greater outreach by the lenders and better portfolio performances. The successful reforms implemented by the Indian regulators may serve as an example for other countries interested in using microfinance to combat poverty.","PeriodicalId":35027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Policy","volume":"14 1","pages":"360"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49502915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of them is to analyse the effects of exchange rate changes on a country's inpayments and outpayments at the bilateral level. One study that did this between Singapore and her 13 largest partners did not find any significant effects of exchange rate changes on Singapore's inpayments from and outpayments to Malaysia, the largest trading partner. Suspecting that such findings could suffer from aggregation bias, we disaggregate the trade flows between the two countries by commodity and investigate the sensitivity of the inpayments of 156 Singapore export industries which engage in 98% of exports to Malaysia, and the outpayments of 133 import industries which conduct 96.7% of imports from Malaysia. Application of the bounds testing approach to each and every industry's model revealed that most industries respond to exchange rate changes in the short run. In the long run, however, only the inpayments of 62 industries and outpayments of 52 industries are affected.","PeriodicalId":35027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Policy","volume":"14 1","pages":"165-205"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/IJPP.2018.091946","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43241035","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hierarchical multivariate linear modelling technique is used in this study. The units of analyses were provinces of Turkey (at level two) and years (at level one). The relationship between terrorism threat (operationalised as ideological incidents reported to the police) and police performance (operationalised as crime clearance rate) is assessed. Socio-economic development, population size, and the size of minority population are controlled. This paper concludes that there is a significant relationship between terrorism threat and police performance within the provinces of Turkey. However, this relationship is contextualised by the size of the minority population within the provinces. More specifically, as the size of the minority population increases, the negative effect of terrorism threat on police performance strengthens. Police performance is operationalised as crime clearance rates. Moreover, only the more serious crimes are included in the calculation of crime clearance rates. Other operationalisations of police performance might yield different results. The level of terrorism threat needs to be considered while assessing police performance.","PeriodicalId":35027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Policy","volume":"14 1","pages":"258-274"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46837811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The structure of Chinese exports has fundamentally changed in the last decade or so, largely due to the involvement of foreign firms in assembly of imported parts and components into final products for re-exports. This phenomenon has attracted several names, including vertical specialisation, outsourcing, intra-product specialisation, global production network and international production sharing. This type of trade now accounts for about one-third of total Chinese exports, which has significant welfare implications as well as implications for public policy, particular for industry assistance and skill upgrading in China..","PeriodicalId":35027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Policy","volume":"14 1","pages":"224-234"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46824565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When the international community provides funds, the policy maker free rides by not funding additionally. We determine which factors impact how the policy maker allocates funding between disease prevention and treatment. If the policy maker provides funds substantially, the international community free rides by funding less. We quantify how more allocation of funds by the policy maker to disease prevention causes lower disease contraction probability and higher probability that a person remains sick or dies, and how the international community's funding impacts these two probabilities. We derive seven assertions from the properties of the model and test against empirical African data. The results show consistency between the theoretical model and empirical estimates.","PeriodicalId":35027,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Public Policy","volume":"14 1","pages":"275-301"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46709714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
