Design Structure and Effective Governance

*Some Open Access*

Governance provides discussion of executive politics, public policy, administration, and the organization of the state. It emphasizes peer-reviewed articles that take an international or comparative approach to public policy and administration.

(Un)principled principals, (un)principled agents: The differential effects of managerial civil service reforms on corruption in developing and OECD countries

The Journal of Organization Design is the intellectual home of organization design thinking. Drawing on a wide variety of disciplines, organization design analyzes how organizations work, and how they can work better, focusing on the choices about structures, systems, and processes that drive various organizational outcomes.
