This paper intends to show both that a reform of the WTO is severely needed in order to establish a fairer international trade
order but also that it is possible. The first section of this paper analyzes the functioning and the most controversial rules
of the organization. The second and third sections intend to look for current opportunities of reforming the WTO by analyzing
the main existing critical responses to the institution’s deficiencies—namely coalitions of southern Nation-States and global
civil society movements—and their potential to achieve some change. It is concluded that these two key group actors, while
playing different roles, do have common goals on selected issues of international trade and if so, their combined negotiating
power is considerably increased for achieving a progress in the direction of a positive reform of the WTO for the developing
world.

Contrary to the popular assumptions among international donor agencies, preceding studies have questioned the causal relations
between decentralization, participation and pro-poor policy outcomes. This article introduces two cases of decentralized city
governments in the Philippines: one employs radical forms of civil participation, while the other introduces modest ones,
but both of them have been successfully launching pro-poor policies. Through referring these contrasting cases to a “participatory
governance” model and a “governance with trusts” model, the paper argues that the approach to local governance is not linear.

The ability of public organizations to invest in emerging technologies is dependent upon the degree to which they can effectively
manage the risks of being a lead-user in a political environment. However, little is known about the dimensions and implications
of the different forms of risk faced by innovative public organizations as well as the strategies employed to manage them.
This paper addresses these issues by studying how one public agency implements a program of replacing its transportation fleet
with alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs).

In this overview of governance mechanisms developed within open source software (OSS) circles, three types of governance are
studied: ‘spontaneous’ governance, internal governance, and governance towards outside parties. Moreover, two main ways in
which lessons from OSS can be applied elsewhere are explored: peer production of products other than software, and embedding
‘peer-produced’ products and peer processes into existing institutions (‘coupling’).

Increasing globalization is driving an increase in diversity and interaction. A more mobile and international workforce frequently
requires that individuals try to understand the norms of their “new” society. This paper provides a preliminary exploration
of the types of issues and concerns raised by expatriates working in a new foreign environment. In particular, the paper uses
a hybrid survey/interview methodology to identify specific issues raised by expatriates working in Kazakhstan, Central Asia.

Globalization involves risks and opportunities for the Arab world. Realistic knowledge of these possibilities is essential
for adaptation of governance and reform of public administration to deal more effectively with the unfolding processes of
globalization. To be participants rather than mere subjects, the Arab states have to recognize opportunities and limit potential
negative consequences. Success requires good governance and professional public management. Public administration in the Arab
world has to transform traditional methods of command and control and nepotism into a more collaborative management that relies
on institutional capabilities and practicing managerial values of accountability, performance evaluation, transparency, and
ethics.

We investigate the role played by a firm’s corporate governance framework in the decision to voluntarily disclose forward-looking
information in the published financial reports of Australian companies in 2000 and 2002. With respect to the year 2000, the
corporate governance category, audit quality, consisting of the presence and independence of the audit committee, its meeting frequency, the use of a big 6 auditor and
the auditor’s independence, is positively associated with the disclosure of forward-looking information. The corporate governance
category, board committees, consisting of the appointment and independence of a compensation committee and the creation of a nomination committee, and
the overall efficacy of the corporate governance system are also positively associated with the disclosure of forward-looking information. However, corporate disclosure does not
seem to be driven by the same factors in 2002 since in that year none of the governance categories is significantly associated
with the firm’s decision to publish forward-looking information in financial reports.

Is the German system of corporate governance converging towards the Anglo-American model? 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
This paper analyses whether the German corporate governance is converging towards Anglo-American practices. We summarise the
extant empirical evidence on the various governance mechanisms that economic theory suggests ensure efficiency and describe
recent legal developments. We find no clear signs of convergence in form, i.e. the main distinctive features of the German system have remained largely unaltered. However, changes occurred over
the last decade (specially in the legal framework) suggest a certain convergence in function, i.e. some governance mechanisms have effectively incorporated aims and/or goals generally associated with the Anglo-American
model.

We use time-series cross-section analysis to provide empirical validation for the existence of a specific American ethos and
a specific European ethos with respect to economic policy. In our innovation, economic policy is proxied by “economic freedom”
from the Fraser Institute database and constitutional “political institutions” are proxied by variables from the Database
of Political Institutions (from the World Bank). Our results suggest that, once we control for political and institutional
differences, the United States and Europe still pursue different economic policies.

While many studies deal with comparative public sector reform, the fundamental question of whether and to what extent states
are actually able to abolish parts of their administrative structure remains untackled. Despite some efforts to solve this
puzzle, the topic remains underestimated. This article identifies the main conceptual and theoretical problems associated
with existent research on the termination of public organizations. Furthermore, the article systemizes various causal factors
of termination into two broad dimensions: “organizational stickiness” and “political incentives.” Taken together, these constitute
a typology, which is able to guide future empirical investigation of the termination of public organizations.

The movement for a new public management (NPM) holds that citizens will put aside partisan and ideological differences to
support more efficient service delivery. Focusing on hospital privatization, a multi-national sample is utilized to investigate
this assertion. Generalized hierarchical linear modeling (GHLM) is employed as the method of statistical analysis. The findings
with regard to privatizing hospitals reveal that citizens develop their policy position by reference to a combination of symbolic
political variables, service demand, self-interest, information levels, and political efficacy. The results cast doubt on
the assertion that partisan differences will be set aside as citizens consider privatization reforms.

The present study intended to explore role of intra-organizational coordination in policy implementation in urban Bangladesh.
In doing so, an attempt was also made to investigate why and how problems of intra-organizational coordination take place
in policy implementation. The study was basically based on empirical data gathered during 2003–2004. The available data substantiated
that intra-organizational coordination is an important factor for policy implementation. Problems of coordination within organization
in urban Bangladesh take place owing to lack of institutionalized rules and regulation and problematic financial management.
Once coordination within organization is problematic, policy implementation is hampered which resulted in delay in project
completion, increase of cost and unsatisfactory public service delivery.

A vignette study of 567 client acceptance decisions by 67 Dutch auditors showed that the prospect of acquiring additional
assignments significantly increases the likelihood that auditing partners accept an audit assignment from a new client, thereby
violating a rule of the auditing profession. Audit firm strategy was found to moderate the effect of the acquisition of additional
assignments: partners working in audit firms emphasizing a professional orientation are less likely to accept such risky assignments,
whereas a commercial orientation of audit firms was found to exacerbate the effect of acquiring additional services. Contrary
to expectations, punishment severity for professional mistakes increases the likelihood of client acceptance.

Robert Mark Silverman 《Public Organization Review》2009,9(3):235-246
This article compares how local public administrators and executive directors of community-based housing organizations (CBHO)
perceive nonprofit funding decisions. The article’s findings suggest that both groups shared perceptions about the scope of
affordable housing and factors influencing its funding. Yet, important differences existed. Public administrators were ambivalent
about nonprofit capacity and affordable housing outcomes. They also underestimated the importance of networks, partnerships,
and minority leadership. Professionals in the nonprofit sector underestimated fair housing concerns and overestimated the
importance of promoting homeownership. These insights improve our understanding of the connection between funding patterns,
public-nonprofit sector relations, local governance, and administrative structures.

Managerial dominance and audit committee independence in Spanish corporate governance 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Emiliano Ruiz-Barbadillo Estíbaliz Biedma-López Nieves Gómez-Aguilar 《Journal of Management and Governance》2007,11(4):311-352
The purpose of this paper is to analyse whether the independence of audit committees is affected by the degree of control
exerted by managers over the board of directors. Results from a sample of 75 listed Spanish companies show that the majority
of firms that voluntarily adopted an audit committee between 1998 and 2001, made an effort to guarantee their independence
from management. The degree of independence is shown to be determined by the proportion of inside directors on the board,
the same person holding both the CEO and board chairperson positions, and the level of management ownership. These findings
may have political implications because existing regulations do not limit the presence of inside directors on audit committees.
The presence of inside directors may compromise effectiveness, turning audit committees into instruments of management to
provide the appearance of monitoring.

Much of the discussion of state steering of service delivery networks to encourage collaboration at the local level has been
theoretical. This study builds on this analysis systematically to assess the relationship between meta-governance tools of
central government steering and the extent of local collaboration, using the case of homelessness services in England. Contrary
to the pessimist expectations of some contemporary theory, central government funding tools and facilitating the transfer
of best practice encourages collaboration. However, simple information provision and authority based tools are only partially
effective, risking tokenistic compliance. Authority tools are more effective when combined with other tools.

Corporate governance codes extensively appeal to ethical standards of conduct. Rather than being articulated alongside economic
axioms, ethical and moral precepts are intertwined within neo-classical economic argumentation across corporate governance
standards. This paper explores the fusion between ethics and modern economic rationality and reflects on the scientisation
of economics and ethics in academic discourse. The argument is then made that the enlistment of ethics within the epistemologically
privileged posture of economics characterises corporate governance codes. The UK Combined Corporate Governance Code of 2006
is analysed to draw out the paper’s contention.

(Belgium). The empirical basis is provided by broad surveys of public sector organizations carried out in 2002–2004. Three
hypotheses on these relationships are formulated and examined, indicating different patterns. The reinforcement hypothesis,
stating a negative relationship does not get any support. On the other hand, the compensation hypothesis, stating a positive
relationship gets some support. In general, however, the indifference hypothesis, stating low or no correlations seems to
be the most adequate. The hypotheses are also linked to prevalent administrative doctrines, and the empirical findings indicate
how relevant they are.
