The behavioral effects of social norms on pre-merger overspending .
Vis sammendrag
There is strong support for the proposition that amalgamation reforms lead to common pool problems and incentivize local government units to overspend, or hoard, before the amalgamation is implemented. Variance in hoarding is poorly understood, though, and the existing literature offers limited help in understanding why some local governments do not hoard at all in the pre-amalgamation period, and why the hoarders do not hoard more than they do. The paper demonstrates that the rational logic to deplete the common pool is conditioned by a logic of appropriateness. Two hypotheses are tested with data from a survey experiment encompassing more than 3000 Norwegian local government councilors in the midst of nationally induced amalgamation considerations. Both hypotheses receive support: The propensity to hoard is higher when it is possible to use savings to finance the hoarding than when it is necessary to borrow money. The propensity to hoard is also higher when the others in the amalgam hoard than when they do not. The conclusion is that incentives to hoard in a pre-merger situation vary with different levels of social obligations vis-à-vis the amalgam.

Knowledge, wicked problems and multi-level government: Learning in the shadow of complexity.
Vis sammendrag
The growing political science literature on wicked policy problems and multi-level government typically studies challenges related to coordination and democratic accountability. Without disputing the importance of these phenomena, this paper argues that the wicked issues literature should pay more attention to the learning aspect of policymaking: knowledge production, knowledge dissemination, and experience-based policy learning. And vice versa: The literature on learning in organizations and policy subsystems should pay more attention to learning in wicked problem processes. The limited dialogue between these literatures is surprising given that the need for information and learning must be assumed to extraordinarily high in awkwardly structured policy subsystems and issues with wicked characteristics. This paper discusses how prerequisites of ideal learning are challenged by characteristics of wicked problems and multi-level governance: the absence of shared problem frames within the policy subsystem, underdeveloped means-ends understandings,
few common interests, lack of commitment to policy goals and improvement, and limits on opportunities for information exchange and reflection. Based on the theoretical exposition the paper formulates expectations about learning processes within three policy sectors in Norway – settlement of
refugees, regional research policy, and urban development policy.

Temaet for dette paperet er hva som kjennetegner evalueringspraksis i statsforvaltningen, og hvordan statlig evalueringspraksis har utviklet seg med vekt på de siste fem årene. På grunnlag av data om over 500 evalueringsprosjekter kartlegger vi evalueringsaktivitet etter politikkområde, analyserer type evaluering innenfor disse og gir en oversikt over utviklingstrekkene.
