Abstract (sommario):
The Mexican Senior Civil Servants The mexican top service has the reputation of corresponding to an incompetent and politicized bureaucracy. In fact, the examination of civil servants’ careers between 1946 and 1988 reveals that the public service has changed into a professional activity that trains and specializes the civil servant as much in political tasks as in administrative ones. The long period of administrative career, professional qualification and the mobility of senior civil servants confirm that there is hence forth a System of administrative control that provides training and sufficient knowledge for exercising, with a certain degree of efficiency, a post of a high level.

Abstract (sommario):
Recent research on career mobility under communism suggests that party membership and education may have had different effects in administrative and professional careers. Using life history data from a nationally representative 1996 survey of urban Chinese adults, we subject this finding to more stringent tests and find even stronger contrasts between career paths. Only recently has college education improved a high school graduate's odds of becoming an elite administrator, while it has always been a virtual prerequisite for a professional position. On the other hand, party membership, always a prerequisite for top administrative posts, has never improved the odds of becoming an elite professional. We also find that professionals rarely become administrators, and vice versa. Differences between career paths have evolved over the decades, but they remain sharp. Thus, China has a hybrid mobility regime in which the loyalty principles of a political machine are combined with, and segregated from, the meritocratic standards of modern professions. Recent changes may reflect a return to generic state socialist practices rejected in the Mao years rather than the influence of an emerging market economy.

Żuchowski, Ireneusz. "Career of the European project manager". Problems of Economics and Law 2, n. 1 (18 giugno 2019): 1–12. http://dx.doi.org/10.5604/01.3001.0013.2555.
Abstract (sommario):
<br/><b>Goal:</b> The aim of the article is to present the nature and specificity of the professional career of European project managers. <br/><b>Material and methods:</b> The study was of qualitative character. The aim of the study was to learn about the career development and opinions of EU project managers on the evolution of their careers. During the interview three main thematic areas were covered: 1. The beginning of the EU project manager's career? 2. Career development of the EU project manager? 3. Experience to provide people planning a career in the field of EU project management? The research was carried out among 100 people, who were the project managers financed from EU funds under the financial perspective 2007-2013 and the 2014-2020 outlook. The research was carried out in the period from 01-09/2018 using the interview method. <br/><b>Results:</b> Among the respondents, 60% were people who worked in public institutions and were directed to trainings in the 1990s that were related to political transformation and they implemented reforms and aid programs realised by the World Bank and pre-accession programs preparing Poland for inclusion in structures of the European community. These people gained experience working as specialists, experts, administrative employees in projects. Gained experience and knowledge means that they continue their careers by implementing projects financed from EU funds. People who have been working on the implementation of projects of this type since the beginning of their careers accounted for 9% of respondents. Most respondents (77%) before becoming project managers participated in the implementation of 4-6 projects performing administrative tasks. On the other hand, 18% of the respondents obtained this position after the implementation of 2-3 projects and 5% of those surveyed became project managers, having no such experience. <br/><b>Conclusion:</b> The professional career of the European project manager, as the research results show, is not straightforward, and professional career in this area is often a coincidence. This is partly related to the specificity of Poland associated to the processes of political and economic transformation. The creation of such jobs has intensified as a consequence of Poland's accession to the European Union.

Abstract (sommario):
Career executives often occupy administrative positions that determine the pace and content of policy, such as those responsible for developing regulations. Yet, presidential administrations need control over these positions to achieve policy aims. This article considers the extent to which new presidential administrations marginalize career executives in key regulatory positions by transferring responsibilities to another individual and whether the mere expectation of political conflict with a new administration drives career regulators from their positions. Using unique new data on 866 career regulators that led major rulemaking efforts between 1995 and 2013, we demonstrate that turnover among career executives in key regulatory positions increases following a party change in the White House. Turnover also increases during a presidential election year, but this effect is conditioned by bureaucrats’ expectations of the election outcome. Finally, career executives are more likely to depart in response to favorable labor market conditions. Given our findings that turnover in regulatory responsibilities is driven both by presidential marginalization and strategic exit by bureaucrats, we conclude with implications for presidential efforts to control the administrative state.

Abstract (sommario):
In today’s politically contentious times where the role of the federal government and career federal workers is continually challenged, it is critical that we understand how the political world affects career choices among federal employees. This study proposes a theoretical framework that integrates the political environment into concepts of turnover intent among public sector employees based on research examining open systems and the administrative presidency. The framework is then explored through interviews with federal employees, former appointees, and lobbyists to understand the impacts of the broad political environment on individuals.

Abstract (sommario):
Governability : a Long-Held Aspiration and Some New Approaches. In this day and age most political-administrative systems are undergoing a severe crisis in governability. Experimental reforms have had mixed results. The future is, therefore, very uncertain following many aborted attempts at reform such as, in Mexico, the desire to establish a career civil service. There are two series of reasons, political and administrative, which explain the crisis in governability. At the political level : an absence of legitimacy, a lack of credibility and an insufficient involvement of citizens within the system ; at the administrative level : a lack of efficacy, efficiency and effectiveness within the governmental apparatus. The preferred means for overcoming this serious crisis of governability should be the quest for a truly democratic form of government.

Emery, Yves, David Giauque e Frédéric Rebmann. "The slow transformation of Swiss federal administrative elites". International Review of Administrative Sciences 80, n. 4 (26 novembre 2014): 687–708. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0020852314533452.
Abstract (sommario):
This article sets out to study the profile of Swiss administrative elites at federal level by showing how their profile has evolved in the light of what has come to be known as the wave of New Public Management (NPM), which has benefited from a very fertile ground in Switzerland. These elites correspond to a specific institutional order, in relation to specific organizational structures and workings, and have specific characteristics in terms of career paths and academic background. However, the administrative reforms that have been rolled out since the 1980s have transformed the institutional order within which executives of the federal administration evolve. This article analyses the extent to which these transformations have had an impact on the characteristics of these elites, through indicators such as academic capital, social capital, and career path within and outside the administration. The results show a slow but significant transformation in the profiles of these elites towards an increasing managerialization, reflecting that of the context in which they evolve. Points for practitioners The relationship between politics and the administration is naturally shaped by individuals but is closely dependent on the profiles of the players. They are currently undergoing a transformation in the wake of administrative reforms, and also of the changing profiles of both the political and administrative players. Gaining an insight into the slow transformation of the profiles of administrative elites therefore sheds light on the political-administrative nexus. The gradual managerialization of the administrative elite highlighted in this article also allows for a better understanding of which professional experiences, qualifications and skills are valued today within the senior civil service in Switzerland.

Baum, Jeeyang Rhee. "Breaking Authoritarian Bonds: The Political Origins of the Taiwan Administrative Procedure Act". Journal of East Asian Studies 5, n. 3 (dicembre 2005): 365–99. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s1598240800002046.
Abstract (sommario):
Taiwan recently adopted a series of administrative reform laws designed to make the bureaucracy more transparent and allow public participation in regulatory policies. Because administrative reform limits the executive's power, it is clear why legislatures would favor strict administrative procedures. But it is less clear why presidents would support them. The passage of these laws begs the question why presidents support administrative procedural reforms designed to restrict their abilities to act freely. I argue that in Taiwan, President Lee Teng-hui's control of his party deteriorated as factional disputes within his own party increased over time. Lee ultimately concluded that the Kuomintang's political survival depended on major reforms. Consequently, the status quo-oriented bureaucracy—hitherto an important source of support for Lee and his key constituencies—became an impediment. Lee supported Taiwan's Administrative Procedure Act in order to reduce the bureaucracy's capacity to impede reform. More generally, I argue that administrative procedures designed to open up the bureaucracy to the public, including previously excluded groups, can serve politicians' goal of redirecting the bureaucracy. Archival data, secondary sources, and interviews with key presidential advisers, senior career bureaucrats, and politicians support my argument.

Abstract (sommario):
Since Woodrow Wilson’s seminal essay "The Study of Administration,” when he called for educating administrators in administration in hopes of making government more business-like, scholars have been investigating the differences and similarities between government and business. Largely ignored was the education for administration; should it likewise be more focused on business?
Despite the development of specialized public administration degrees, the Master of Public Administration (MPA) and its equivalents, many managers trained in business schools are employed in federal government. This, alone, should make one question whether or not graduate education in public administration is truly any better or more appropriate for public sector management careers than other graduate degrees, notably the MBA.
The present study addresses the issue of degree appropriateness by comparing federal sector managers who are MPA-trained with those who are MBA-trained on ten career success indices. Data to construct the indices were collected via a mailed survey questionnaire sent to the population of federal sector managers holding the MPA or MBA from selected universities. A variety of statistical procedures in SPSS were used to analyze the data.
Analysis of the data indicates that few significant differences exist between MPA's and MBA's in career success, as measured in the short term. Possible explanations for these findings are explored. A cohort analysis and t-Test indicates that MBA's receive higher starting salaries than MPA's but MPA's surpass their MBA peers approximately twelve years after completing the master's degree. A hypothetical fourth (older) cohort of MPA's would be significantly higher paid now than MBA's.
Implications for individuals, institutions, and society, based on the findings, were discussed, along with limitations to the study and future topics of research.Ph. D.

Electronic Thesis or Diss., Sorbonne université, 2022. http://scd-proxy.univ-brest.fr/login?url=https://bibliotheque.lefebvre-dalloz.fr/isbn/9782247233502.
Abstract (sommario):
Préfet entré en politique au mitan du XIXe siècle, Charlemagne-Émile de Maupas a commencé à être redécouvert par les dix-neuviémistes il y a une trentaine d’années, dans un contexte de relecture historiographique du Second Empire. Claude Vigoureux, dans une étude pionnière, a notamment mis en lumière son rôle, en tant que préfet de police de la Seine, dans l’élaboration et l’exécution du coup d’État du 2 décembre 1851. Son parcours riche et varié, souvent réduit à cet évènement, mérite pourtant d’être appréhendé dans sa globalité, d’autant que de sa première expérience de sous-préfet à Uzès à la prestigieuse préfecture des Bouches-du-Rhône, en passant par le ministère de la Police générale, la légation de France à Naples ou le Sénat impérial, Maupas a laissé de très nombreux papiers privés qui constituent un précieux fonds pour l’historien. Notre thèse, qui s’inscrit dans la perspective d’une biographie totale, a donc pour objet d’analyser sa trajectoire administrative, politique et notabiliaire, depuis les monarchies censitaires jusqu’à la Troisième République naissante. Nous entendons en outre montrer comment ce notable à la fois singulier et idéal-typique, profondément conservateur et attaché au régime monarchique, a mobilisé ses réseaux et ses capitaux multiples pour construire sa carrièreCharlemagne-Émile de Maupas, a prefect who entered politics in the mid-nineteenth century, began to be rediscovered by historians some thirty years ago in the context of a historiographical rereading of the Second Empire. Claude Vigoureux in particular published a pioneering study shedding light on his role as Prefect of Police of the Seine and in the elaboration and execution of the coup d'état of December 2, 1851. His rich and varied career, often reduced to this event, nevertheless deserves to be understood in its entirety, especially as Maupas left numerous private papers, from his first experience as a sub-prefect in Uzès to the prestigious prefecture of Bouches-du-Rhône, via the Ministry of the General Police, the French legation in Naples and the Imperial Senate, which constitute a precious collection for the historian. Our thesis, which is written with the perspective of a total biography, therefore aims to analyze his administrative, political and notabiliary trajectory from the census monarchies to the nascent Third Republic. We also intend to show how this deeply conservative, singular and yet ideal-typical notable who was committed to the monarchical regime mobilized his networks and his capital to build his career

Previous issue date: 2009Este trabalho propõe analisar o fenômeno da terceirização desenvolvido ao longo das duas últimas décadas em Bio-Manguinhos. Trata-se de um estudo de caso realizado na unidade de produção de vacinas e reagentes para diagnóstico da Fundação Oswaldo Cruz. Inicialmente foi realizado um estudo de cenário, analisando a política de gestão do trabalho desenvolvida pelo Estado brasileiro para as instituições públicas. A seguir, a análise passou a verificar a inserção da Fiocruz nessas políticas, desde a sua criação e no decorrer de vigência de diferentes formas de contratação, alternando da extrema rigidez para a total flexibilidade sempre com foco na gestão do trabalho, e, como essas políticas se refletiram no desempenho de Bio-Manguinhos. Baseado no contexto da conformação do Estado e na análise do desempenho da unidade, o trabalho critica a falta de planejamento e de prospecção dessas políticas, que favoreça a inovação de processos, produtos e procedimentos e o desempenho pleno de uma unidade de produção de insumos para a saúde, tão necessários ao atendimento das necessidades da população brasileira. Critica também, a ausência de um modelo de Estado consolidado que sirva de arcabouço à formulação dessas políticas. Devido às fortes críticas dos órgãos de controle acerca da extrapolação dos limites da terceirização praticada nas últimas duas décadas e à falta de definição clara desses marcos legais, o trabalho apresenta uma metodologia baseada nas atribuições dos cargos do plano de carreiras da Fiocruz e culmina com a apresentação de uma matriz de atribuições passíveis de serem realizadas por contratação indireta. Conclui pela necessidade de convivência de dois quadros de trabalhadores: um permanente formado por servidores, estáveis e de carreira e outro flexível, executado por contratação indireta, de caráter eventual, temporário ou de apoio às atividades relacionadas à missão de Bio-Manguinhos. O trabalho ainda sugere a aplicação da mesma metodologia às demais unidades da Fiocruz e que a instituição afirme, frente aos órgãos de controle, quais atividades que ela precisa manter no quadro de servidores permanente e quais ela quer delegar a terceiros sem contudo, ferir a legislação vigente. Por fim, constata-se que a metodologia apresentada ameniza, mas não resolve o problema, dessa forma, recomenda-se à Fiocruz buscar mecanismos que altere o modelo de gestão pelo qual está submetida a fim de viabilizar as duas formas de incorporação de mão-de-obra.

Abstract (sommario):
This book, in one convenient volume, is the first comprehensive exploration of all episodes of Xi Jinping’s (b. 1953) life history and his political career, begun at age seventeen. Part I explores Xi’s formative childhood and youth experience as well as his governance record spanning every administrative level from the village to the capital. Part II focuses on Xi’s first five-year term as general secretary (2012–2017) and as president (2013–2018). The book discusses all major issues, including Xi’s legitimacy building, consolidation of power, ideological redefinition, party rectification, anticorruption efforts, and control of dissent up until 2018. It explores reforms in the economy, social policy, the judiciary, military, and foreign relations in the same period. Xi’s political life mirrors the vicissitudes of the Maoist and reform eras and sheds light on the regime’s hopes and fears, strengths and weaknesses, and the changing zeitgeist. By adopting a multidisciplinary, comparative, and social science approach, this book unpacks and explains immensely complex phenomena, and offers fresh insights into the dynamics of governance in China, encompassing both progressive and regressive features. It synthesizes a large corpus of cutting-edge research on China, takes issue with influential theories such as the “one party, two coalitions” view of Chinese politics, and rejects conventional wisdom that views China as a “frozen and closed system” under “one-man rule.” This original contribution to scholarship explores how Xi Jinping and his team introduced an unprecedented transformation of Chinese society and politics, and initiated an activist global outreach.

Abstract (sommario):
This book interleaves the history of post-Independence archaeology in India with the life and times of Madhukar Narhar Deshpande (1920–2008), a leading Indian archaeologist who went on to become the director-general of the Archaeological Survey of India. Spanning nearly a century, this is a tale about the circumstances which brought men like Deshpande to this career path; what it was like to grow up in a family devoted to India’s freedom; the watershed moment that created a large cohort that was trained by Mortimer Wheeler, the doyen of British archaeology who headed the Archaeological Survey in the twilight years of the British Raj; the unknown conservation stories around the Gol Gumbad in Bijapur and the Qutb Minar in Delhi; the forgotten story of how the fabric of a historic Hindu shrine, the Badrinath temple, was saved; the chemistry shared by the prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, and the archaeologist, Deshpande at historic cave shrines like Ajanta and Ellora, and; the political and administrative challenges faced by director generals of archaeology. The story is told through a main character—Deshpande himself—some of whose writings have been included here. Equally, there are others who figure in the narrative as it reconstructs and recounts the story of Indian archaeology after 1947 through those lives as also through the institutional history of the Archaeological Survey and the processes that were central to the discoveries it made and the challenges it faced.

Abstract (sommario):
This book offers a detailed timeline of the key events in the history of the U.S. Army, from the American Revolutionary War to today's ongoing conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. The United States Army: A Chronology, 1775 to the Present captures the full sweep of the U.S. Army's place in our nation's history. Its series of concise, yet highly informative, entries cover all important events involving American ground troops—both successes and failures, in wartime and in peace—from the American Revolutionary War to the present. In a basic chronological format anchored to specific dates, The United States Army reports on all significant military engagements—major conflicts and isolated actions—but goes well beyond the battlefield to include significant political and administrative changes affecting the military, notable events in the careers of generals and soldiers, significant military texts, the foundation of noted schools of instruction, and military minutae such as pay scales and creation of a general staff. Coverage also extends beyond the regular army to include auxiliaries from the colonial militias, to today's National Guard, Reserves, Army Aviation, and Special Forces.

Abstract (sommario):
AbstractDespite achieving the right to stand for parliament, women’s role as wife and mother was expected to largely preclude political ambitions. Parliaments resisted the presence of women, even as Hansard reporters, although out of public view they filled administrative roles in the offices of parliamentarians and ministers. Politics remained a ‘two-person career’, with wives expected to contribute unpaid political support for their husbands, as well as managing family and household. The eventual inflow of younger women into parliament in the 1990s (in Australia, after the adoption of party quotas) led to a struggle to convert a masculine institution into a family-friendly one. Babies in the chamber could no longer be treated as ‘strangers’ and parental leave and childcare were needed. Women took on prominent roles in ministers’ offices, though such positions of influence could be perilous. This chapter tracks changing perspectives on the social expectations, organisational practices and institutional norms that served to exclude women from political careers or to constrain their contribution once they had arrived in parliament.

Tahtalioğlu, Hava. "Systemic Problems of Public Personnel Management in Turkey". In Handbook of Research on Global Challenges for Improving Public Services and Government Operations, 366–79. IGI Global, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.4018/978-1-7998-4978-0.ch019.
Abstract (sommario):
Public personnel system of Turkey creates various problems, which are related with the ill-planned nature of the system, which is continuously amended and which swings between the career-based and position-based systems. Uncertainty about using career-based or position-based systems is caused by not only the variety of public personnel, but also administrative, political, and social factors. This study aims to find if Turkish personnel management system has evolved towards the career-based or the position-based system. For this aim, the author firstly provides general information on public personnel systems and the history of Turkish public personnel system. Next, the author determines whether the Turkish public personnel system is evolving towards the career-based or position-based system by analyzing the regulations on Turkish public personnel system. The author also analyzes the underlying administrative, political, and social factors behind this evolution. Finally, this study is evaluated perceptions about the type of public personnel system in Turkey.

Peters, B. Guy. "The Administrative Tradition Approach to Public Bureaucracy". In Administrative Traditions, 23–53. Oxford University Press, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780198297253.003.0002.
Abstract (sommario):
This chapter develops the model of administrative traditions that functions as the framework for the remainder of the book. The argument is that contemporary public bureaucracies are influenced significantly by their historical roots, and that many features of contemporary bureaucracy can be understood through the historically rooted administrative traditions. The model of administrative traditions developed in this chapter has a number of components. First is the nature of the state in which public administration functions. Second is whether there is an emphasis on law or management in defining the role of public servants. The third dimension is the relationship between politics and public administration, followed by the service orientation of public servants. The fifth element of the model is the nature of the career patterns of public servants. Another political dimension concerns the role of social actors in influencing the bureaucracy. Administrative traditions also are concerned with the degree of uniformity in public services throughout the country. The final dimension of the model of administrative traditions is the degree and form of accountability. This model of administrative traditions is based on the experiences of Western Europe, but also has relevance in many other settings.

Pasquale, Frank. "Battle of the Experts: The Strange Career of Meta-Expertise". In The Oxford Handbook of Expertise and Democratic Politics, 345—C15N55. Oxford University Press, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oxfordhb/9780190848927.013.15.
Abstract (sommario):
Abstract Sociologists and philosophers have critically examined the interplay between democracy and expertise. This article develops a law and political economy approach to the topic, focusing on the challenge posed to traditional professions by “meta-experts” (who develop standardized algorithmic and quantitative methods to trans-substantively evaluate experts’ performance and value). Law has critical roles to play in adjudicating emerging conflicts between experts and meta-experts. First, lawmakers can confirm or contradict whatever jurisdictional claims they make over a domain. Law is therefore critical to the establishment of practical epistemic authority. Second, administrative law has long addressed the balance of legal regularity, politics, and expertise in the proper functioning of agencies. Both law and political economy pressures shape “battles of the experts,” as economists and coders challenge the authority of other professionals.

El-Merheb, Mohamad. "Ibn Jamaʿa’s Synthesis and Praxis of Shafiʿi Political Thought". In Political Thought in the Mamluk Period, 47–84. Edinburgh University Press, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.3366/edinburgh/9781474479646.003.0003.
Abstract (sommario):
Chapter 2 introduces the reader to Ibn Jamaʿa’s (639/1241–733/1333) career and political thought. It explains the development of his practicable conceptions of the rule of law and his elaboration of a new system of checks and balances to moderate the ruler’s discretionary exercise of power, which was rooted in Shafiʿi juristic reasoning and greatly benefited from the author’s administrative and judicial experience. The chapter treats Ibn Jamaʿa’s tripartite conception of political authority, which ruled out the normative need for the caliphal institution, advanced what resembled a proto-constitution that regulated all aspects of public life and empowered the administration, and proposed an advanced theory of the legitimate delegation of power to high-ranking functions of government.

Hartlapp, Miriam, e Agnes Blome. "Women’s Positional Leadership in the European Commission". In Women and Leadership in the European Union, 55–73. Oxford University Press, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780192896216.003.0004.
Abstract (sommario):
To date, more than 60 women have worked in top-level positions in the European Commission. This chapter asks when, where, and how they entered leadership positions. It uses descriptive analysis of original data to show that women’s leadership in the Commission developed late—with virtually no women at its apex in the first 35 years of integration—rising to roughly 40% of top positions by 2021. Analysis of horizontal gender divides shows that women in the Commission lead not only classically “feminine” portfolios but now frequently also economic and foreign policy portfolios. The organizational setup, appointment procedures, and personnel policy of the Commission structure an administrative and a political path to leadership in the Commission. Along these paths, individual factors like nationality and career experience play out differently, which explains the observable patterns of women’s positional leadership. We conclude that where women’s administrative and political leadership meet, there is particular potential for leadership to be turned into substantial representation of women’s interests.

Abstract (sommario):
Devendra Fadnavis, of the Bharatiya Janata Party, became the second-youngest chief minister of Maharashtra in 2014 at the age of 44. Belying expectations, he lasted a full five-year term in office governing the state renowned for its factional politics. His administrative skills were widely appreciated. He began his political career with the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP), the student wing of the BJP, and gradually worked his way up the political ladder. Fadnavis has a long association with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), where his father served as a pracharak. He attributes his poise and temperament to his upbringing in the RSS.

Abstract (sommario):
‘The diplomat’ describes the insight that Machiavelli gained during his diplomatic career. Machiavelli became second chancellor of the Florentine Republic aged 29, despite lacking previous administrative experience. He did so in part on the strength of his humanist credentials and family connections. As a diplomat, he went to the courts of France, the Holy Roman Empire, and the papal states, meeting many of the leading political figures of the age. He judged the rulers of the time to be too inflexible and excessively reliant on fortune. He also learned the value of decisiveness. Machiavelli’s own fortunes collapsed when the Florentine Republic was dissolved after the return of the Medici.

Abstract (sommario):
Following his ordination, Olivares embarked on a teaching and administrative career within the Claretian order. After teaching back at Del Amo Seminary, Olivares soon rose up through the administration of his order. Within a few short years in the mid-1960s he was selected as treasurer of the order. As treasurer and as a good company man, Olivares administered a multi-million dollar fund which he invested in Wall Street. To entice him to invest with particular investment companies, Olivares was wined and dined by Wall Street. He grew to enjoy this role and seemed oblivious to the political upheavals of the 1960s including the Chicano Movement.

Abstract (sommario):
Both the Christian empire of Charlemagne and the subsequently hugely influential imperial ideology of the early Middle Ages were rooted in the Roman past. This chapter addresses the reality of the early medieval empire and the ways in which it was represented by contemporaries for posterity. It examines the career of Pippin III, the first king of the Carolingian dynasty, and the expansion of the Carolingian Empire under his illustrious son Charlemagne, by both design and chance, to embrace most of western Europe. This vast realm was governed by an elaborate and efficient political and administrative system in which both lay and ecclesiastical magnates played a crucial role. This system of governance was maintained even within the smaller political units of the later ninth, tenth, and eleventh centuries. The Latin Christian culture initially promoted by Charlemagne, moreover, is the most enduring legacy of the medieval empire to the Western world.

В статье рассматривается карьера ремесленника-портного Ральфа Холланда, стремившегося продвинуться на самую вершину политического Олимпа Лондона. Показано, что он использовал все доступные в той ситуации методы борьбы за пост мэра, который открывал дополнительные возможности для коммерческого успеха – и личного, и ремесленной гильдии портных. Фактически Ральф Холланд возглавил оппозицию власти, переросшую в волнения 1441–1443 гг. Однако купеческая олигархия английской столицы, используя административный ресурс, не позволила представителю ремесленной среды занять должность мэра. The article examines the career of the artisan-tailor Ralph Holland, who sought to advance to the very top of the political Olympus in London. It is shown that he used all the methods available in that situation to fight for the post of mayor, which opened up additional opportunities for commercial success – both personal and craft tailors' guild. In fact, Ralph Holland led the opposition to power, which grew into unrest in 1441–1443. However, the merchant oligarchy of the English capital, using administrative resources, did not allow a representative of the craft environment to take the post of mayor.

Abstract (sommario):
The Swiss labour market will shrink without immigration. But even with high immigrationnfigures, it will not be possible to maintain the previous growth of the labour market. Employers need to adapt to this situation. This study compiles and arranges different measures for dealing with the labour shortage, with the aim of showing different approaches to deal with the situation. The measures are arranged following the formula: Number of person-hours x efficiency = output The increase in the number of person-hours includes, on the one hand, measures to make employers more attractive. These are relative competitive advantages in the labour market. In a survey, 1,000 employees from German-speaking Switzerland were asked about their satisfaction with different aspects of their work and these areas of satisfaction were compared with their overall satisfaction, loyalty toward their employer and intentions of quitting their jobs. It showed that development opportunities (both personal and in terms of their career) and the appreciation by an employer who matches one’s values are the most important employer attributes for employees, but it is precisely the development opportunities that are often not offered to a satisfactory extent. The increase in the number of person-hours comprises, on the other hand, measures to expand labour market participation, which means that more person-hours are worked in the market. There are many options for this. Where remote working has become the norm, there are not many obstacles to offshoring work abroad. In addition, pensioners are open to working on a project-by-project basis and, if need be, could be recruited via “gig-economy” style platforms for individual tasks. A corporate platform could lower the hurdle for pensioners who worked for that company (in terms of psychology and also the bureaucracy) and create a broad but casual recruitment pool. Furthermore, career and pension advice could encourage women to increase their working hours or at least to not to give up their jobs completely despite high childcare costs. Political measures could also be introduced to lower the latter. It is probable that the labour market of the future will have to cope with fewer people, despite all efforts to increase person-hours. The formula suggests another factor: the increase in efficiency. Automation of work processes is one example of an efficiency measure. In a survey of managers, half of the respondents thought that about 20% of the work could already be automated today. However, there was a lack of competencies (also a consequence of the labour shortage), of a technology-savvy culture and of confidence that quality can be maintained. In addition, respondents to the employee survey also perceive about 20% of the work they do as unnecessary (excessive emails, meetings, administrative tasks, etc.). This is partly attributed to too much in-house bureaucracy and too many managers – which is the occupational group that has grown the most in the swiss labor market since 1991. The connection between wages and value generation seems to be restricted both within companies and in society as a whole. The labour shortage is often also caused by an allocation problem. Even measures to increase efficiency do not necessarily lead to less need for staff. Rather, the consequence of increased efficiency is often an almost automatic expansion GDI Gottlieb Duttweiler Institute 5 of output. In order to cope with the labour shortage, it is necessary to deal with output carefully and to reflect on where output should be expanded, capped or even reduced so that any reduction in output is done in a controlled manner. Especially in the context of an increasing relevance of sustainability, there are services and products in all companies that need to be questioned and the elimination of which would promote the credibility of sustainability strategies and thus also increase the chance that the corporate values match those of young employees. Perhaps other legal forms are necessary in order to avoid the pressures for growth which are linked with a shareholder structure. Alternative models are possible.

Abstract (sommario):
This report is part of a larger cross-country comparative project and constitutes an account and analysis of the measures comprising the Norwegian national response to the COVID-19 pandemic during the year of 2020. This time period is interesting in that mitigation efforts were predominantly of a non-medical nature. Mass vaccinations were in Norway conducted in early 2021. With one of the lowest mortality rates in Europe and relatively lower economic repercussions compared to its Nordic neighbours, the Norwegian case stands unique (OECD, 2021: Eurostat 2021; Statista, 2022). This report presents a summary of Norwegian response to the COVID-19 pandemic by taking into account its governance, political administration and societal context. In doing so, it highlights the key features of the Nordic governance model and the mitigation measures that attributed to its success, as well as some facets of Norway’s under-preparedness. Norway’s relative isolation in Northern Europe coupled with low population density gave it a geographical advantage in ensuring a slower spread of the virus. However, the spread of infection was also uneven, which meant that infection rates were concentrated more in some areas than in others. On the fiscal front, the affluence of Norway is linked to its petroleum industry and the related Norwegian Sovereign Wealth Fund. Both were affected by the pandemic, reflected through a reduction in the country’s annual GDP (SSB, 2022). The Nordic model of extensive welfare services, economic measures, a strong healthcare system with goals of equity and a high trust society, indeed ensured a strong shield against the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Yet, the consequences of the pandemic were uneven with unemployment especially high among those with low education and/or in low-income professions, as well as among immigrants (NOU, 2022:5). The social and psychological effects were also uneven, with children and elderly being left particularly vulnerable (Christensen, 2021). Further, the pandemic also at times led to unprecedented pressure on some intensive care units (OECD, 2021). Central to handling the COVID-19 pandemic in Norway were the three national executive authorities: the Ministry of Health and Care services, the National directorate of health and the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. With regard to political-administrative functions, the principle of subsidiarity (decentralisation) and responsibility meant that local governments had a high degree of autonomy in implementing infection control measures. Risk communication was thus also relatively decentralised, depending on the local outbreak situations. While decentralisation likely gave flexibility, ability to improvise in a crisis and utilise the municipalities’ knowledge of local contexts, it also brought forward challenges of coordination between the national and municipal level. Lack of training, infection control and protection equipment thereby prevailed in several municipalities. Although in effect for limited periods of time, the Corona Act, which allowed for fairly severe restrictions, received mixed responses in the public sphere. Critical perceptions towards the Corona Act were not seen as a surprise, considering that Norwegian society has traditionally relied on its ‘dugnadskultur’ – a culture of voluntary contributions in the spirit of solidarity. Government representatives at the frontline of communication were also open about the degree of uncertainty coupled with considerable potential for great societal damage. Overall, the mitigation policy in Norway was successful in keeping the overall infection rates and mortality low, albeit with a few societal and political-administrative challenges. The case of Norway is thus indeed exemplary with regard to its effective mitigation measures and strong government support to mitigate the impact of those measures. However, it also goes to show how a country with good crisis preparedness systems, governance and a comprehensive welfare system was also left somewhat underprepared by the devastating consequences of the pandemic.
