What are the relationships between corruption, patronage, and child mortality in low- and middle-income countries? We argue that corruption and patronage affect child mortality outcomes for some causes of death, especially those that are more easily prevented or treated with affordable care. To test our hypotheses, we utilize cross-national time-series analysis of under-five child mortality in developing countries between 1996 and 2016. Our study finds that patronage and corruption increase under-five child mortality arising from easily preventable childhood diseases, but they have almost no effect on under-five child mortality caused by more complex illnesses. Our study underscores the need to examine cause-specific health outcomes rather than overall health outcomes in comparative health analysis, as the ability of governments to address specific health issues depends on the nature of the problems.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Related Articles</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Ireni-Saban, Liza. 2013. “Give Me Children or Else I Die: The Politics and Policy of Cross-Border Reproductive Care.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 41(1): 5–38. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12004.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Lagunes, Paul F. 2012. “Corruption's Challenge to Democracy: A Review of the Issues.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 40(5): 802–26. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1747-1346.2012.00384.x.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Tusalem, Rollin F. 2022. “Does Gendered Representation in National Legislatures Promote Substantive Representation and Human Development?

However, limited attention has been given to how ETS characteristics and designs differ and why. We use the concept of institutional complementarity to explore how the EU ETS and South Korea's ETS (K-ETS) adapt to complement established political economy. The EU ETS is characterized as a market with stakeholder ownership, while the K-ETS is more regulatory in nature with government leadership. The EU ETS complements a decentralized political system with liberalized energy market, and the K-ETS became compatible with the centralized majoritarian politics and a regulated electricity market. The ETSs have evolved incrementally, and they are not likely to link in the foreseeable future due to divergence. We suggest a strong focus on “how to adapt” an ETS to its own institution rather than adopting the established blueprint model in countries with a strong regulatory style of governance.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Related Articles</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Caliskan, Cantay. 2020. “The Influence of Elite Networks on Green Policy Making.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 48(6): 1104–37. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12382.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Tanaka, Yugo, Andrew Chapman, Tetsuo Tezuka, and Shigeki Sakurai. 2020. “Multiple Streams and Power Sector Policy Change: Evidence from the Feed-In Tariff Policy Process in Japan.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 48(3): 464–89. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12357.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>von Malmborg, Fredrik. 2023. “Combining the Advocacy Coalition Framework and Argumentative Discourse Analysis: The Case of the ‘Energy Efficiency First’ Principle in EU Energy and Climate Policy.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 51(2): 222–41. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12525.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51679,"journal":{"name":"Politics & Policy","volume":"51 6","pages":"1155-1173"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/polp.12566","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138615699","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on a mixture of methods—including analysis of newspaper coverage, legislative debates, and policy documents, plus interviews—this article assesses the extent to which Christian interest groups achieved different forms of policy-related influence, and its dynamics. It finds that, despite important failures, these groups nonetheless achieved various types of success, including over the policy debate, small policy shifts, and “counteractive” influence,  reflecting both the weaknesses and persisting strengths of Christianity within British society.

Using the description texts of hearings, this article assesses the compositional energy topic changes of conventional agendas, other general agendas, and unconventional agendas, including environmental and social agendas. By focusing on how economic contextual shocks, along with political factors, shape the energy agenda attention mix, this study discovers that conventional agendas related to energy topics in U.S. congressional hearings are relatively less likely to be discussed when economic conditions are adverse under Democratic legislature controls.

This article delves into the origins of the alien reference by surveying the case of the DREAMers—a small subset of immigrants brought to the United States as children. Designated as aliens in the broader immigration context, the DREAMers epitomize a problematic narrative depicting the overall “otherness” as deep-seated in America. I impose Agamben‘s image of the <i>homo sacer</i> onto the conceptualization of otherness to frame the DREAMers as alienated (exempted from the limits of the political state), waiting to enter society through formal legislation. Critically examining the narratives of policy makers in Congress, I study how political elites use language to reinforce existing power structures. In the two-decade attempt of Congress to resolve the DREAMers‘ marginalized status, they are infantilized and, hence, stigmatized anew.</p><p>Related Articles</p><p>Duman, Yoav H. 2014. “Reducing the Fog?

It argues that by virtue of the sectarian and ethnic representation of the sub-identities, the long-term interests of society are neglected. The reliance on natural resources creates a competition within the elite to seize the state's revenue for narrow interests. Finally, in such a setting, the elite attempts the monopolization of the flow of information to the public to shore up its legitimacy. The case study is Iraq since it is one of the few, if not the sole, sectarianized political system with a rentier economy. The political elite, despite an abysmal performance for nearly two decades, has been resilient and garnered more power. The continuous malpractice encompasses all the political players who agree on the governing rules by which they maintain their position within the system, and with limited circulation of the elite.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Related Articles</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Ali, Hamid E., and Shahjahan Bhuiyan. 2022. “Governance, Natural Resources Rent, and Infrastructure Development: Evidence from the Middle East and North Africa.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 50(2): 408–40. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12451.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Howie, Peter. 2018. “Policy Transfer and Diversification in Resource-Dependent Economies: Lessons for Kazakhstan from Alberta.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 46(1): 110–40. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12239.</p>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Khodr, Hiba. 2014. “A Preliminary Comparative Study of Policy Making in Two GCC Countries—Qatar and Kuwait: Processes, Politics, and Participants.” <i>Politics &amp; Policy</i> 42(2): 271–310. https://doi.org/10.1111/polp.12068.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51679,"journal":{"name":"Politics & Policy","volume":"51 6","pages":"1136-1154"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2023-10-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135569982","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}
