Institutionalism: Intergovernmental Exchange, Administration-Centered Behavior, And Policy Outcomes In Urban Agencies, Herman L. Boschken Oct 1998

Institutionalism: Intergovernmental Exchange, Administration-Centered Behavior, And Policy Outcomes In Urban Agencies, Herman L. Boschken

Herman L. Boschken

This article inquires about the sufficiency of institutional exchange theory in explaining the impacts of intergovernmental power structure on agency policy making. Based on rational behavior, transactional exchange, and game playing, this so called new institutionalism points to the degree of autonomy held by an agency in its collaboration with other government jurisdictions as a principal determinant of a patterned bias in agency policy outcomes. The author first summarizes theory arguments and derives hypotheses about agency outcomes that are skewed to favor some interests over others. He then reports results of a multiple regression analysis of a sample of forty-two …

Productivity Growth And Public Sector Employment, Kong Weng Ho, Hian Teck Hoon Oct 1998

Productivity Growth And Public Sector Employment, Kong Weng Ho, Hian Teck Hoon

Research Collection School Of Economics

Our model endogenizes the share of public sector employment in a neoclassical growth model. Under the assumptions that public sector production is labor intensive and the elasticity of substitution between capital and labor is less than one, the public share of employment is shown to decline with a rise in capital per effective worker. Our theory predicts that periods of high productivity growth are associated with a rising trend of the public share of employment. This prediction conforms well with U.S. experience from 1950–1995.

The Rise And Fall Of The Hk Economy, Lok Sang Ho Jul 1998

The Rise And Fall Of The Hk Economy, Lok Sang Ho

CAPS Working Paper Series

In this Chapter, I want to make a simple hypothesis. Hong Kong under the SAR Government had departed from the long-held recipe of success. The economic decline witnessed till the time of writing was the direct and immediate result of misguided government intervention, particularly in the property market. The nine-point rescue package announced on June 221998, however, showed that the SAR government might have learnt the lesson. In the absence of a full-hearted reversion to the old wisdom of positive nonintervention, however, the Hong Kong economy would continue to decline, and Hong Kong would lose its importance in the global …
