Each crisis is dreadful in its own special way, and so is the COVID-19 pandemic. Beyond its lethal nature and truly global spread, one of its characteristics lies within the detachment of cause and effect. The cause, i.e. SARS-CoV-2, can clearly be attributed to health issues, though the COVID-19 pandemic challenges entire public administration (PA) systems well beyond the health sector. Both the lockdown as executed and the first careful exit-steps in their entire complexity increase scope and scale of PA’s tasks and responsibilities, challenging not only health authorities, but all parts of the administrative system, from security administration to public service delivery, with the entire world remaining in very turbulent water. Thus, the question arises how the PA should react to ensure high performance in times of crisis. Our findings underpin the relevance of trust in public administration (or “the government” in general), notably in times of crisis: the higher trust levels are, the more likely compliance of citizens and successful networking with non-state actors is. Even in the absence of many trust generating factors, trust levels are increasing in the current COVID-19 pandemic.
The methodology of experiments has been slow to garner a following in public administration (PA), a scientific discipline that exhibits a high degree of methodological conservatism over time (Perry 2012). Our re-view takes stock of the experimental research agenda so far. Examining all articles that appeared between 1990 and 2013 in the fifteen most cited journals in the field of ‘Public Administration’, we analyze the range of experimental PA research with regards to their coverage of ex-perimental methods and research designs applied, but also with a view to their contribution to the development of an experimental research agenda. Based on the finding that PA not only experiences a general dearth of experimental research, but also a limited scope with regard to the variety of experimental designs and research questions tackled, we assess the potential benefits from that methodological advancement and outline approaches for prospective research.
Fluchtmigration ist eine der aktuellen Herausforderungen für die Staaten der Europäischen Union (EU). Angesichts der bestehenden Disparitäten in Bezug auf Aufnahme und Unterstützung der Migrantinnen und Migranten stellt sich jedoch zunehmend die Frage nach einem Umverteilungsmechanismus innerhalb der EU. Der vorliegende Beitrag entwirft einen Mechanismus, welcher die Aufnahme von Angehörigen aus Drittstaaten an Auszahlungen aus den Europäischen Fonds knüpft und somit sowohl zu einer gerechteren Verteilung von Finanzmitteln wie auch einer passgenaueren Verteilung von Migranten führen kann, indem die Bedürfnisse beider Seiten Berücksichtigung finden.
