摘要

先前的研究记录了经济收缩时期国家对高等教育的资助减少的模式(即，平衡轮现象)。本定性案例研究考察了加利福尼亚州和德克萨斯州的政策制定者在2019冠状病毒病大流行开始时，在政策制定者面临经济衰退的情况下，如何做出为高等教育提供资金的决定。数据包括28次对主要国家行为者的采访和69份文件。该分析扩展了先前对国家决策者如何做出影响高等教育的预算决策的理解，探讨了他们如何认为某些目标人群值得或不值得国家支持。这项研究还揭示了决策者对高等教育的看法与其资助决策之间的微妙关系。

“One of the Weakest Budget Players in the State”: State Funding of Higher Education at the Onset of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Prior studies have documented the pattern of decreased state funding for higher education in periods of economic contraction (i.e., the balance wheel phenomenon). This qualitative case study examines how policymakers in California and Texas made decisions about funding higher education at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, when policymakers faced an economic downturn. Data comprise 28 interviews with key state actors and 69 documents. The analysis expands prior understandings of how state policymakers make budgeting decisions that affect higher education by exploring how they perceive certain target populations as deserving or undeserving of state support. The study also sheds light on the tenuous relationship between policymakers’ views of higher education and their funding decisions.

期刊介绍： Educational Evaluation and Policy Analysis (EEPA) publishes manuscripts of theoretical or practical interest to those engaged in educational evaluation or policy analysis, including economic, demographic, financial, and political analyses of education policies, and significant meta-analyses or syntheses that address issues of current concern. The journal seeks high-quality research on how reforms and interventions affect educational outcomes; research on how multiple educational policy and reform initiatives support or conflict with each other; and research that informs pending changes in educational policy at the federal, state, and local levels, demonstrating an effect on early childhood through early adulthood.
