While much attention has been paid to the attractions and criticisms of nudge (such as liberal paternalism), this article argues that nudge is based on a rationality paradox in that it represents an approach that despite its emphasis on bounded rationality, does not reflect on its own limits to rationality. The article considers the implications of this paradox by considering mechanisms that influence government decision making and mechanisms that lead to unintended consequences in the context of policy interventions.}, language = {en} } @incollection{BachWegrich, author = {Bach, Tobias and Wegrich, Kai}, title = {Regulatory Reform, Accountability and Blame in Public Service Delivery: The Public Transport Crisis in Berlin}, series = {The Routledge Handbook to Accountability and Welfare State Reforms in Europe}, booktitle = {The Routledge Handbook to Accountability and Welfare State Reforms in Europe}, editor = {Christensen, Tom and L{\ae}greid, Per}, publisher = {Routledge}, address = {London}, isbn = {9781315612713}, doi = {10.4324/9781315612713}, publisher = {Hertie School}, pages = {14}, abstract = {Introduction Among the many promises of reforms of the 'regulatory state' type, the clarification of account - ability relations features prominently. While not always using the language of accountability, a major argument against the state as direct provider of a range of public services was that accountability relations were unclear: state providers of services such as telecommunications and transport were hybrids between commercial enterprises and public service providers that were largely self-regulatory in terms of service provision and technical safety (Lodge and Wegrich 2012). The governance of such enterprises allowed political logics to trump economic rationales, and it was unclear in how far the management of these companies should follow either a political or a managerial logic, as they had to provide 'essential public services' in an economically efficient way.}, language = {en} }
