Abstract

The Eurozone and migration crises exposed severe gaps in the administrative capacity of the EU. This fine volume offers an insightful interdisciplinary and comparative analysis of how EU Agencies were strengthened in response. —Frank Schimmelfennig, ETH Zürich, Switzerland The proliferation, design and accountability of EU agencies is the focus of a vibrant academic debate. The editors have assembled a timely and stellar volume, which widens the research agenda on EU agencies. —Berthold Rittberger, Ludwig Maximilian Universität München, Germany In the literature on the crises that have beset the EU, the role of agencies has often been overlooked. This volume fills that gap, but it also does a lot more. Combining insights from legal scholars and political scientists, it contributes to important and topical debates about the role of agencies in EU governance. —Hussein Kassim, Professor of Politics, University of East Anglia, UK, and ESRC Senior Fellow ‘The UK in a Changing Europe’ This book provides a wealth of empirical material to understand key aspects of EU governance including its plurality of actors and policy making modes and its functioning during crisis management. Authored by legal scholars and political scientists, it presents new research and insights on the role of EU agencies in the context of the Euro and migration crises. Specifically, the contributions assess why the crises have led to the creation of new EU agencies and what roles these agencies have performed since their inception; how the crisis, notably the migration crisis, has impacted on existing EU agencies; how EU agencies have shaped the policies during and after the crises; and, how the crisis has affected the accountability of EU agencies. This book is essential in understanding the intricacies of EU crisis management and the specific role of EU agencies therein, as well as EU governance more broadly. Johannes Pollak is Professor of International Relations and European Politics at Webster Vienna Private University, Austria, as well as senior research fellow at the Vienna Institute for Advanced Studies. Peter Slominski is an assistant professor at the Department of Political Science/Centre for European Integration Research (eif) at the University of Vienna, Austria. .

Abstract

As the US faced its lowest levels of reported trust in government, the COVID-19 crisis revealed the essential service that various federal agencies provide as sources of information. This Element explores variations in trust across various levels of government and government agencies based on a nationally-representative survey conducted in March of 2020. First, it examines trust in agencies including the Department of Health and Human Services, state health departments, and local health care providers. This includes variation across key characteristics including party identification, age, and race. Second, the Element explores the evolution of trust in health-related organizations throughout 2020 as the pandemic continued. The Element concludes with a discussion of the implications for agency-specific assessments of trust and their importance as we address historically low levels of trust in government. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Abstract

""Thai politics is driven by actors and actions of paradox such as anti-election movements for accountability or independent, partisan organizations. This lucidly written book uncovers the 'military-led civil affairs' that earn the armed forces the omnipotent role in Thai society. It enriches our understanding of the Thai military in both empirical and theoretical ways. Empirically, the book illuminates how the soldiers have been intensively involved in supposedly civic activities ranging from forest land management to poverty reduction. Such long-lasting and extensive involvement means the mi.
