This study explores how key stakeholders of the government that is responsible for PPP development, including the upper-tier government, the public, and business partner, can exert political influences through institutional ways over the fate of PPP projects. It argues that political pressures from the upper-tier government and the public, together with political relationship between the government and its business partner, determine whether the government would terminate its PPPs ahead of schedule. Empirically, this study investigates toll road PPP experiences in China. A qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) of 57 toll projects suggests the complexity of causal effect of political factors. In total, the factors of political pressures and political relationship form three pathways to PPP early termination.","PeriodicalId":47571,"journal":{"name":"Public Performance & Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-05-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81661363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, room remains for understanding how these institutions—usually run by senior professional administrative staff—function in the face of political instability. To explore this issue, we focus on the role of Deputy Directors-General for Strategy (DDS) and their forum, a new institution intentionally established by the Israeli cabinet in order to strengthen policy capacity and collaboration in strategic planning processes across ministries. We argue that political instability, defined as the frequent turnover of politicians and politically appointed high-level bureaucrats who head governmental ministries, implies that the permanent senior professional staff plays a larger role in terms of strategic planning and policy capacity. Using textual analysis and 19 in-depth interviews with Deputy Directors-General for Strategy and other senior officials, we analyze how they deal with political instability with regard to the government’s ability to function, as well as the strategies they use to do so.","PeriodicalId":47571,"journal":{"name":"Public Performance & Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46099711","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the increasing importance of the local government’s role in intergovernmental relations, the perspective of local bureaucrats has received relatively less attention, particularly outside the U.S. To better understand intergovernmental tensions from the local agents’ side, we explore several characteristics at the local level that may impact local bureaucrats’ decision making, including local bureaucrats’ perception of discretion, their commitment to the organization, and their career backgrounds. Our analysis of original data from survey experiments with over 2,200 local civil servants in Korea shows that such characteristics indeed play a role in distinguishing local bureaucrats’ perceptions of intergovernmental tensions. Our study has clear implications for public management literature and practice: local bureaucrats’ individual characteristics matter in intergovernmental relations and affect how the central government’s policies are implemented in local agencies.","PeriodicalId":47571,"journal":{"name":"Public Performance & Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47069222","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, traditional theories have proposed different hypotheses about the effectiveness of TELs, and empirical studies have not been able to reach a consistent conclusion. In this article, we employ a meta-analysis to synthesize existing empirical evidence and explore why different studies find different results on the effect of TELs on state and local budgets. Our meta-analysis results show that TELs are associated with small but significant decreases in both state and local revenue and expenditure. The findings from a subsequent meta-regression analysis add to the TEL literature by showing that the design features of TELs, types of revenue, and level of government can all contribute to the observed variations in the effect of TELs on state and local budgets. The conclusion of this study sheds light on the long-standing debate over the impact of TELs and suggests useful ways for policymakers to improve their TEL designs and policies.","PeriodicalId":47571,"journal":{"name":"Public Performance & Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42161962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The advantages of accrual accounting in the public sector are well documented from the theoretical perspective. However, empirical findings are relatively rare and primarily rely on either normative arguments or storytelling narratives drawn from case studies. Our paper intends to fill this void by combining archival and survey data from higher education institutions. We investigate whether and to what extent universities with accrual accounting enhance fiscal performance. Based on the results of Mahalanobis distance matching and regression with matched pairs, accrual accounting regimes have a small but positive impact on reducing the debt ratio of such institutions. This paper has the potential to provide information regarding the intended effects of accrual accounting on public organizations.","PeriodicalId":47571,"journal":{"name":"Public Performance & Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49326123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the short term, disasters may disrupt debt financing. The disaster shocks may increase the costs of debt if they hurt revenue bases or decrease the costs of debt if generating “constructive destruction” to the local economy. Using a panel of U.S. County governments between 1999 and 2019, we find that weather-related disasters decrease the likelihood of issuing general obligation bonds and increase the probability of issuing revenue bonds and short-term bonds in the subsequent 6 months. Conditional on borrowing, disasters increase the bond yields for short-term bonds. Thus, natural disasters may disrupt the timing of local government long-term borrowing but do not necessarily destroy public finances.","PeriodicalId":47571,"journal":{"name":"Public Performance & Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45964650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We utilize Korean GPE data related to qualitative/quantitative and financial/non-financial performance indicators that the government uses to evaluate public organizations. The GPE does not cover every important environmental activity in which public organizations may engage; the EP measure can incorporate results from all environmental activities, even those excluded from the GPE. Our investigation revealed that the EP of public organizations varied according to their GPE performance gaps. Low GPE performers favored GPE-included environmental activities over GPE-excluded environmental activities, but high GPE performers engaged in environmental activities were excluded from the GPE. A negativity bias occurs when public organizations adjust their environmental activities in response to GPE performance gaps. For environmental activities excluded from the GPE, low GPE performers avoided them more than high GPE performers engaged in them. These findings indicate the importance of a well-designed organizational performance evaluation for balanced engagement in environmental initiatives.

However, whether public organizations utilize these opportunities to improve their practices has scant coverage in the government contracting literature. We adapt insights from the organizational learning literature, develop an argument on the learning logic in government contracting, and examine manager perceptions of learning outcomes and whether intra- and inter-organizational and contextual conditions shape the learning outcomes. The argument is assessed against survey data reporting on the municipal park and road managers’ contracting experiences in Scandinavia. The findings show that government contracting in the context of the study is associated with positive learning outcomes and indicates possible tradeoffs between conventional cost-driven and learning strategies. The implications contribute to discussions about the role and benefits of government contracting beyond cost savings in the post-NPM reform era.","PeriodicalId":47571,"journal":{"name":"Public Performance & Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42308400","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to explore how agency managers perceive institutional pressures and how these pressures shape their network behaviors for interagency collaboration. Specifically, this research focuses on structural holes, which refer to network positions that connect otherwise-disconnected agencies. Drawing on the literature of public management, citizen participation, and social networks, this research develops a theoretical model of an agency’s network position and proposes hypotheses. This research tested two hypotheses using network and survey data collected from agency managers in the Seoul Metropolitan Government in 2009. The results of the study showed that agencies under greater performance pressure tended to locate themselves in interagency networks with structural holes, while agencies facing greater citizen participation demands tended to embed themselves in interagency networks with fewer structural holes. This implies that performance pressure drives city agencies to seek competitive structural positions in interagency networks, while citizen participation demands lead agencies to locate in dense interagency networks.","PeriodicalId":47571,"journal":{"name":"Public Performance & Management Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48617925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
