We argue that the refugee crisis can be considered as an administrative crisis that challenged organisational legitimacy. Various novel coordination actors and arenas were set up in order to enhance governance capacity. Yet, all of them have been selected from a well-known pool of administrative arrangements. As a consequence, those novel coordination arrangements did not replace but rather complement pre-existing patterns of executive coordination. Hence, the recent refugee crisis exemplifies how bureaucracies effectively adapt to changes in their surroundings via limited and temporary adjustments that coexist with existing organisational arrangements. Thus, the observed changes in coordination structures contribute to repairing organisational legitimacy by increasing governance capacity.}, language = {en} } @article{JannFleischer2011, author = {Jann, Werner and Fleischer, Julia}, title = {Shefting discourses, steady learning and sedimentation : the German reform trajectory in the long run}, isbn = {978-0-415-55721-4}, year = {2011}, language = {en} } @article{Fleischer2009, author = {Fleischer, Julia}, title = {Power resources of parliamentary executives : policy advice in the UK and Germany}, issn = {0140-2382}, doi = {10.1080/01402380802509941}, year = {2009}, language = {en} } @article{KraemerWallraf2013, author = {Kr{\"a}mer, Raimund and Wallraf, Wolfram}, title = {Juan Jose Linz : Nachruf}, year = {2013}, language = {de} } @article{Wallraf2020, author = {Wallraf, Wolfram}, title = {Strategische Autonomie Europas}, series = {WeltTrends das außenpolitische Journal}, volume = {28}, journal = {WeltTrends das außenpolitische Journal}, number = {159}, publisher = {WeltTrends}, address = {Potsdam}, issn = {0944-8101}, pages = {50 -- 53}, year = {2020}, language = {de} } @article{VerwiebeWolfSeewann2019, author = {Verwiebe, Roland and Wolf, Margarita and Seewann, Lena}, title = {Werte, Wertebildung und ihre interdisziplin{\"a}re Deutung}, series = {Werte und Wertebildung aus interdisziplin{\"a}rer Perspektive}, journal = {Werte und Wertebildung aus interdisziplin{\"a}rer Perspektive}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-658-21975-8}, pages = {285 -- 307}, year = {2019}, language = {de} } @article{VerwiebeSeewann2019, author = {Verwiebe, Roland and Seewann, Lena}, title = {Werte und Wertebildung in der Einwanderungsgesellschaft}, series = {Werte und Wertebildung aus interdisziplin{\"a}rer Perspektive}, journal = {Werte und Wertebildung aus interdisziplin{\"a}rer Perspektive}, publisher = {Springer}, address = {Wiesbaden}, isbn = {978-3-658-21975-8}, pages = {239 -- 264}, year = {2019}, language = {de} } @article{RamakrishnanKalkuhlAhmadetal.2020, author = {Ramakrishnan, Anjali and Kalkuhl, Matthias and Ahmad, Sohail and Creutzig, Felix}, title = {Keeping up with the Patels}, series = {Energy research \& social science}, volume = {70}, journal = {Energy research \& social science}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {2214-6296}, doi = {10.1016/j.erss.2020.101742}, pages = {12}, year = {2020}, abstract = {End-users base their consumption decisions not only on available budget and direct use value, but also on their social environment. The underlying social dynamics are particularly important in the case of consumer goods that implicate high future energy demand and are, hence, also key for climate mitigation. This paper investigates the impact of social factors, with a focus on 'status perceptions', on car and appliance ownerships by urban India households. Using two rounds of the household-level data from the India Human Development Survey (IHDS, 2005 and 2012), we test for the impact of social factors in addition to economic, demographic, locational, and housing on ownership levels. Starting with factor analysis to categorise appliances by their latent characteristics, we then apply the bivariate ordered probit model to identify drivers of consumption among the urban households. We find that while income and household demographics are predominant drivers of car and appliance uptake, the household's perception of status, instrumented by a variable measuring expenditure on conspicuous consumption, emerges as a key social dimension influencing the uptake. The results indicate how households identify themselves in society influences their corresponding car and appliance consumption. A deeper understanding of status-based consumption is, therefore, essential to designing better demand-side solutions to low carbon consumption.}, language = {en} } @article{DapprichCockshott2023, author = {Dapprich, Jan Philipp and Cockshott, William Paul}, title = {Input-output planning and information}, series = {Journal of Economic Behavior \& Organization}, journal = {Journal of Economic Behavior \& Organization}, number = {205}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0167-2681}, doi = {10.1016/j.jebo.2022.10.043}, pages = {412 -- 422}, year = {2023}, abstract = {In this paper, we show how socialist planning can be based on input-output data. We argue that the information required for this can be obtained by a central planning agency and thus dismiss Hayek's information argument against socialism. We further show how economic planning can be made responsive to consumer demand through a feedback control mechanism. Output targets of products would be adjusted in response to observed consumer demand or based on predictions about future demand. Planners can use machine learning to make more accurate forecasts. The valuation of goods plays an important role in the feedback control mechanism. The values of goods can either be measured by the labour time necessary for their production (labour values) or through shadow prices based on linear programming.}, language = {en} } @article{Hartmann2016, author = {Hartmann, Eddie}, title = {Symbolic Boundaries and Collective Violence.

Methodologically the article addresses these puzzling problems in favor of a relational sociology that argues against both micro- and macro-reductionist accounts, while theoretically it proposes a twofold reorientation: first, it makes a plea for the so called cognitive turn in social theory; second, it proposes following praxeological accounts of social action that focus on the dynamic interpenetration of cognition and socio-cultural practices. The argument is that symbolic boundaries constitute the "missing link" that allows for overcoming the micro-macro gap in violence research: Symbolic boundaries can cause people's participation in collective violence by providing the essential relational resources for violent action and by triggering the cognitive/affective mechanisms necessary for social actors to become drawn into mobilization processes that can cause their engaging in coordinated attacks on sites across the boundary. The article offers a new theoretical argument by drawing on knowledge from violence research, social action theory and cognitive science allowing for a non-reductionist theory of action that explains how and why people engage in collective violence.}, language = {en} }
