China has steadily improved in public goods and state capacity according to the BGI data from 2000 and 2019, especially in terms of economic public goods and fiscal capacity due to its rapid GDP growth under an investment-led growth model. However, China's democratic accountability has worsened, presenting an uncommon case of improved governance performance. Now China's economy stands at a crossroads amid the precedent-breaking leadership of Xi Jinping. Will China disprove the 'autocratic fallacy,' whereby a dominant state setting priorities and making decisions for a society is sufficient? To what extent can China improve public goods provision and expand state capacity while limiting voice processes? This article examines key policies and strategies of China's governance performance over the past two decades. It also identifies future challenges underlying China's party-dominated and whole-of-nation approach to governance and its investment-led and export-oriented development model.}, language = {en} } @article{Yang, author = {Yang, Yuqing}, title = {India: Developmental challenges faced by a dual economy}, series = {Global Policy}, volume = {14}, journal = {Global Policy}, number = {Suppl. 4}, issn = {1758-5880}, doi = {10.1111/1758-5899.13272}, pages = {104 -- 112}, abstract = {With a population of over 1.4 billion surpassing China's in 2023, India has now become the world's most populous country. Despite its robust IT and service sectors propelling it to become the fifth-largest economy, India still grapples with low GDP per capita and significant poverty. The paradoxical nature of India's development necessitates a closer examination of its governance. Over 90\% of the Indian population works outside the purview of formal democratic institutions and capital-intensive economic sectors. Challenges arise from the need to sustain a large poor population with limited resources while catering to the formal sector that generates more than half of its GDP. India's governance exhibits a deep mismatch between its institutional design, politics and developmental needs. This article explores the duality of informal and formal sectors underlying challenges in Indian governance by way of the Berggruen Governance Index.}, language = {en} } @article{Ghalehdar, author = {Ghalehdar, Payam}, title = {The purpose of military force and the Obama doctrine: no fighting for face}, series = {International Relations}, journal = {International Relations}, issn = {0047-1178}, doi = {10.1177/00471178231151907}, abstract = {The scholarly debate about the Obama doctrine has focused on the extent of military force in Obama's foreign policy. Offering both a novel definition of presidential doctrines and a reinterpretation of the Obama doctrine, this article shifts the focus from the extent to the purpose of force. More specifically, it claims that the Obama doctrine is better described as a general unwillingness to fight for a reputation for resolve. Unlike most of his predecessors, Obama did not consider the US military as a tool for projecting firmness. Instead, his decisions concerning the use of force were dominated by material considerations, be it in limited or expansive military operations. To illustrate Obama's refusal to fight for face, the article examines three prominent decision points during the Obama presidency - the 2009 surge in Afghanistan, the 2011 intervention in Libya, and Obama's reaction to the Syrian regime's use of chemical weapons in 2013.}, language = {en} } @techreport{WoodElbasyouny, type = {Working Paper}, author = {Wood, Tamara and Elbasyouny, Ahmed}, title = {Analysing group refugee recognition in African states' law and practice}, edition = {No. 11}, doi = {10.48462/opus4-5577}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:kobv:b1570-opus4-55771}, pages = {34}, language = {en} } @article{RavensSiebererDevineNappetal., author = {Ravens-Sieberer, Ulrike and Devine, Janine and Napp, Ann-Kathrin and Kaman, Anne and Saftig, Lynn and Gilbert, Martha and Reiß, Franziska and L{\"o}ffler, Constanze and Simon, Anja Miriam and Hurrelmann, Klaus and Walper, Sabine and Schlack, Robert and H{\"o}lling, Heike and Wieler, Lothar Heinz and Erhart, Michael}, title = {Three years into the pandemic: results of the longitudinal German COPSY study on youth mental health and health-related quality of life}, series = {Frontiers in Public Health}, volume = {11}, journal = {Frontiers in Public Health}, issn = {2296-2565}, doi = {10.3389/fpubh.2023.1129073}, abstract = {Purpose For the past three years, the German longitudinal COPSY (COVID-19 and PSYchological Health) study has monitored changes in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and the mental health of children and adolescents during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods A nationwide, population-based survey was conducted in May-June 2020 (W1), December 2020-January 2021 (W2), September-October 2021 (W3), February 2022 (W4), and September-October 2022 (W5). In total, n = 2,471 children and adolescents aged 7-17 years (n = 1,673 aged 11-17 years with self-reports) were assessed using internationally established and validated measures of HRQoL (KIDSCREEN-10), mental health problems (SDQ), anxiety (SCARED), depressive symptoms (CES-DC, PHQ-2), psychosomatic complaints (HBSC-SCL), and fear about the future (DFS-K). Findings were compared to prepandemic population-based data. Results While the prevalence of low HRQoL increased from 15\% prepandemic to 48\% at W2, it improved to 27\% at W5. Similarly, overall mental health problems rose from 18\% prepandemic to W1 through W2 (30-31\%), and since then slowly declined (W3: 27\%, W4: 29\%, W5: 23\%). Anxiety doubled from 15\% prepandemic to 30\% in W2 and declined to 25\% (W5) since then. Depressive symptoms increased from 15\%/10\% (CES-DC/PHQ-2) prepandemic to 24\%/15\% in W2, and slowly decreased to 14\%/9\% in W5. Psychosomatic complaints are across all waves still on the rise. 32-44\% of the youth expressed fears related to other current crises. Conclusion Mental health of the youth improved in year 3 of the pandemic, but is still lower than before the pandemic.}, language = {en} } @article{ClaassenMairBidet, author = {Claassen, Casper Hendrik and Mair, Johanna and Bidet, Eric}, title = {Social Enterprises Within the Public Sector's Purview: A Taxonomy-Based Study on South Korea}, series = {VOLUNTAS: International Journal of Voluntary and Nonprofit Organizations}, journal = {VOLUNTAS: International Journal of Voluntary and Nonprofit Organizations}, issn = {0957-8765}, doi = {10.1007/s11266-023-00622-7}, abstract = {This study applies a hierarchical clustering approach to identify social enterprise models that have appeared in a setting of public sector-led incubation. Within such a context, a high degree of conformity ought to be apparent due to the coercive isomorphic pressures associated with public sector patronage. We nominate South Korea for our analysis, given that the rising number of social enterprises in the country is closely related to a regulatory intervention. Based on an analysis of 468 social enterprises, we find, contrary to expectations, that distinct clusters of government-certified social enterprises have emerged, namely social utility niche, job outsourcing, market opportunity, and integrated balanced models. We typologize these models according to their strategic orientation, mission focus, and institutional alignment. In doing so, we contribute to social enterprise research by illustrating how organizational pluralism may manifest when the growth of a population of social enterprises is directly linked to public sector intervention and regulation.}, language = {en} } @incollection{Wegrich, author = {Wegrich, Kai}, title = {Public sector innovation: which season of public sector reform?}, series = {Handbook of Public Administration Reform}, booktitle = {Handbook of Public Administration Reform}, editor = {Goldfinch, Shaun Francis}, publisher = {Edward Elgar}, isbn = {978 1 80037 673 1}, publisher = {Hertie School}, pages = {131 -- 145}, language = {en} } @techreport{RevillardCornoFernandezetal., type = {Working Paper}, author = {Revillard, Anne and Corno, Lucia and Fernandez, Jos{\´e} Luis and Mason, Danielle and Umbach, Gaby and Bodenstein, Thilo and Cartwright, Andrew and Melenciuc, Ioana-Roxana and Wegrich, Kai and Stone, Diane}, title = {Developing policy evaluation in an academic setting: assets and challenges}, series = {D{\´e}bat du LIEPP}, journal = {D{\´e}bat du LIEPP}, number = {n°7}, pages = {24}, abstract = {Based on a seminar organized by LIEPP and CIVICA which took place at Sciences Po in June 2022, this publication brings together ten academic researchers from seven different CIVICA universities (Bocconi, CEU, EUI, Hertie School, LSE, Sciences Po, SNSPA), who are involved in various forms of policy evaluation. These contributions from Austria, France, Germany, Hungary, Italy, Romania, and the United Kingdom, reflect on the assets and challenges of developing policy evaluation in an academic setting. The seminar was organized as part of CIVICA's research focus on "Democracy in the 21st century", but through the crosscutting nature of program evaluation, it is also of interest to CIVICA's three others research streams (on societies in transition, data, and Europe revisited). The aim of this debate is thus to better understand the specificities, assets and challenges of developing evaluation from within an academic setting, in view of eventually reflecting on possible ways to collectively reinforce this practice within CIVICA, and use CIVICA as a leverage to reinforce this practice. This debate is organized around two topics, developing academic evaluative research, and the role of academic institutions in outreach and training in evaluation. Contributions are based on presentations of the experiences of each CIVICA partner.}, language = {en} }
