科层视角下的政策回应性:面向基层公务员的列举实验Policy Responsiveness from a Bureaucratic Perspective: A List Experiment Targeting Grassroots Civil Servants
刘遥,韩啸,刘晨晖
摘要(Abstract):
现有政策回应性研究多聚焦高级官员,忽视了作为“一线回应主体”的基层公务员群体。通过引入建言行为,本研究将基层公务员政策回应性界定为“在政策建言中考虑公众意见的倾向”。面向3501名基层公务员的列举实验显示,近半数基层公务员选择在政策建言中考虑公众诉求,表现出政策回应性。基层公务员的建言行为发挥着将“公众语言”转换为“政策语言”的“桥梁”作用,有助于解决政策制定中的信息不对称问题。此外,本研究立足压力型体制情境,考察了自上而下的领导指示压力和自下而上的公众投诉压力对基层公务员政策回应性的影响。基于贝叶斯统计的多变量分析结果显示,领导指示压力对基层公务员政策回应性具有显著正向影响,而公众投诉压力只有在领导指示压力较低时才可能强化基层公务员政策回应性。这表明科层压力是基层公务员政策回应性的核心动力源。
