Item Embargo A New Era for Think Tanks in Public Policy? International Trends, Australian Realities(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2008) 't Hart, Paul; Vromen, AriadneAlthough the powerful have always sought advice from the knowledgeable, it took the appeal of the policy sciences movement of the late 1940s and onward to build and consolidate a veritable industry of policy analysis and advice. 1 One of the hallmarks ofItem Embargo Being there(Palgrave Macmillan Ltd, 2007) Rhodes, Roderick; 't Hart, Paul; Noordegraaf, Mirko; P 't Hart; RAW. Rhodes; M NoordegraafItem Embargo Celebrity Politics: The Politics of the Late Modernity?(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2010) Marsh, David; 't Hart, Paul; Tindall, KarenThe academic literature on celebrity politics is rarely systematic; more often it is superficial and anecdotal. In addition, most of the literature focuses either upon classifying different types/categories of celebrity politicians and their roles in politics, or upon the question of whether the growth of celebrity politics undermines or enhances democracy. In this article we consider both of these issues more systematically and, in doing so, work towards a more coherent understanding of the mechanisms that influence modern governance and the operation of contemporary democracy.Item Embargo Conclusions: The Politics of Crisis Exploitation(Cambridge University Press, 2008) Boin, Arjen; 't Hart, Paul; McConnell, Allan; Arjen Boin; Allan McConnell; Paul 't HartItem Embargo Crisis exploitation: political and policy impacts of framing contests(Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2009) Boin, Arjen; 't Hart, Paul; McConnell, AllanWhen societies are confronted with major, disruptive emergencies, the fate of politicians and public policies hangs in the balance. Both government actors and their critics will try to escape blame for their occurrence, consolidate/strengthen their political capital, and advance/defend the policies they stand for. Crises thus generate framing contests to interpret events, their causes, and the responsibilities and lessons involved in ways that suit their political purposes and visions of future policy directions. This article dissects these processes and articulates foundations for a theory of crisis exploitation. Drawing on 15 cases of crisis-induced framing contests, we identify potentially crucial factors that may explain both the political (effects on incumbent office-holders/institutions) and policy (effects on programs) impacts of crises.Item Embargo Crisis Leadership of the Bush Presidency: Advisory Capacity and Presidential Performance in the Acute Stages of the 9/11 and Katrina Crisis(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2009) 't Hart, Paul; Tindall, Karen; Brown, ChristerItem Metadata only Dispersed Democratic Leadership(Oxford University Press, 2009) Kane, John; Patapan, Haig; 't Hart, Paul; John Kane; Haig Patapan; Paul 't HartItem Metadata only Dispersed Democratic Leadership Revisted(Oxford University Press, 2009) Kane, John; Patapan, Haig; 't Hart, Paul; John Kane; Haig Patapan; Paul 't HartItem Metadata only Dispersed Democratic Leadership: Origins, Dynamics and Implications(Oxford University Press, 2009) Kane, John; Patapan, Haig; 't Hart, Paul; John Kane; Haig Patapan; Paul 't HartItem Embargo Does Public Accountability Work? An Assessment Tool(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2008) Bovens, Mark; Schillemans, Thomas; 't Hart, PaulIn recent years, there has been a drive to strengthen existing public accountability arrangements and to design new ones. This prompts the question whether accountability arrangements actually work. In the existing literature, both accountability 'deficits' and 'overloads' are alleged to exist. However, owing to the lack of a cogent yardstick, the debate tends to be impressionistic and event-driven. In this article we develop an instrument for systematically assessing public accountability arrangements, drawing on three different normative perspectives. In the democratic perspective, accountability arrangements should effectively link government actions to the 'democratic chain of delegation'. In the constitutional perspective, it is essential that accountability arrangements prevent or uncover abuses of public authority. In the learning perspective, accountability is a tool to make governments effective in delivering on their promises. We demonstrate the use of our multicriteria assessment tool in an analysis of a new accountability arrangement: the boards of oversight of agencies.Item Embargo Dutch Eurocrats at work: getting things done in Europe(Palgrave Macmillan Ltd, 2007) Geuijen, K; 't Hart, Paul; Yesilkagit, Kutsal; P 't Hart; RAW.

Unlike previous studies, which focus on institItem Embargo How Adenauer lost power: Understanding Leadership Rivalry and Succession Conflict in Political Parites(Frank Cass & Co Ltd, 2007) 't Hart, PaulItem Metadata only Inertia or Change?

In this article, we provide a heuristic to help understand political leader responses to blame in the aftermath of crises, emphasizing the crucial role of their leadership style on the political management of Inquiries. After integrating theoretical and empirical findings on crisis management and political leadership styles, we illustrate our heuristic by applying it to the Bush administration's response to Hurrican Katrina in 2005. We conclude by offering suggestions for further research on the underdeveloped subject of the blame management challenges faced by political leaders in the wake of acute crisis episodes.
