Institutiоns аnd Sоciety (PAD6109): Pick оne option from the four questions below. There аre few exаmples of pure public goods. Military defense is sometimes offered as an example of one, but even for this example what does status as a public good tell us about how much a nation spends on military defense and how it spends it? Thus, there are questions about the strengths and weaknesses of the concept of public goods and other explanations for public provision. Choose a government program or service and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of public provision vs. alternative delivery of the service.Your answer should address the following: How do the concepts of market failure explain why government delivers the service? Are these concepts useful in explaining how much government provides, and how it provides it? What alternative concepts and models can be brought in to help explain what market failure concepts fail to explain? How might you combine aspects of the market failures approach and institutional theories to analyze and explain provision of goods and services? Based on your discussion in response to c) above, develop a testable hypothesis about government provision of a good or service. Specify the dependent variable or outcome of interest. What measures would be required to test the hypothesis? Describe the design of an empirical test of the hypothesis. How does society hold institutions accountable? What are the formal and informal mechanisms to hold institutions accountable? What are the internal and external mechanisms that hold institutions accountable? Which are most effective/least effective? Critically describe the accountability mechanisms in theoretical and practical terms and any challenges in developing and operating these mechanisms. Explain how “uncertainty” is related to the formation, operation, and outcomes of institutions from the perspective of two different theoretical frameworks covered in Institutions and Society. Develop a testable hypothesis about uncertainty related to the formation, operation, and/or outcomes of institutions. Specify the dependent variable or outcome of interest. What measures would be required to test the hypothesis? Describe the design of an empirical test of the hypothesis. How is institutional theory as applied to public management and institutional theory as applied to the study of public policy similar? How are they different? What do you see as important theoretical contributions that the field of public policy and the field of public management have each made to the theory and understanding of institutions generally? Provide examples of specific scholars, their contributions and how they have shaped and influenced the study of institutions.
Lоgics оf Inquiry (PAD 6707) Pick оne of the three options While cаusаlity hаd always been an important concern in scientific research, it has received renewed attention in public administration research recently. What is causality and why is it important for public administration research? What does ensuring causality mean in quantitative and qualitative studies? More specifically, do quantitative and qualitative studies have similar or different logics, methods, and barriers in enduring causality? Some say that the rise of big data and computational social science will downplay the importance of causal thinking. Do you agree? Why or why not? The use of mixed methods in PA research has become more widely used. Define a research question you could study on COVID-19 that would relate to policy or public management. Discuss how you would use a mixed-method approach to study this question, and what strengths and weaknesses the quantitative and qualitative approaches each bring to the research question. Would you choose to start with a qualitative approach and then use quantitative methods, or the other way around, beginning with a quantitative approach and then using qualitative methods. Why would you choose the order you are choosing, and how might it impact your study? Experimental design has been emphasized by many public administration researchers recently. What are the strengths and weaknesses of experimental designs? Given the historical development of public administration as a discipline in the U.S., how would you evaluate the increasing attention to experimental studies? In your opinion, what big problems (or even crises) does American public administration face? How do experimental studies fit into our efforts in resolving the problems (crises)?
