Discovering the Dark Side of Power: The Principal’s Moral Hazard in Political-Bureaucratic Relations

Principal agent (PA) is among the most prominent concepts for analyzing the relationship between politics and bureaucracy. Nonethelesss, the inherent bias of PA scholars to attribute moral hazard almost exclusively to the agent, usually referred to as “bureaucratic drift”, requires re-examination. Building on the spare literature in which moral hazard of the principal is considered, this paper provides empirical evidence for a neglected aspect of the PA concept. Three cases of German regulatory agencies responsible for drug control, financial services and rail safety are analyzed in critical situations which were largely perceived as bureaucratic failures. The analysis reveals that a good deal of these failures, ranging from negligence to suppressing crucial information, has to be attributed to the political principal. This is called the dark side of power because the intention is to shift blame or to dodge political responsibility. Turning conventional PA reasoning upside down, the conclusion is that the principal’s moral hazard should be considered more routinely as a potential explanation for political-bureaucratic interactions.     

Research on the Affordable Housing Community: Review and Prospect

The construction of affordable housing is not only housing construction,but also community cultivation. The construction of affordable housing community is one of the key indicators to determine the effectiveness of the housing policy. Based on collecting related literature in CNKI, the researcher conducts a quantitative analysis of the research literature on affordable housing in China by using Bicomb2.0. The study has found that the quantity of research results is closely related to the development of the policy. The research focuses on the housing policy, financing and post management. Community research is marginalized in the research heat maps, and research disciplines are mostly human geography, management and so on. Then the researcher reviews the four core issues in the study of affordable housing community, such as the spatial location and community segregation of affordable housing, the satisfaction and influencing factors of housing community, the neighborhood interaction and social integration of affordable housing community and public service and community governance of security housing community. Finally, the paper provides proposals for future study.

论我国未成年犯罪人社区矫正的必要性与可行性

针对未成年人犯罪的成因及特点,除了对一部分社会危害性大的未成年犯罪人实行监禁矫治而外,对那些确实有悔改表现,不再危害社会的未成年犯罪人,社会能够对其进行有效控制的实行社区矫治,这种做法不仅震慑了犯罪,同时也挽救了一大批确有悔罪表现的失足青少年,使他们重新步入社会,开始新的生活。有效地对未成年犯罪人进行社区矫治不仅具有现实意义而且具有战略意义,本文仅就实行未成年犯罪人社区矫正的必要性与可行性加以探讨。
