Interlocal learning mechanisms and policy diffusion: The case of new energy vehicles finance in Chinese cities

AbstractPolicy diffusion based on learning mechanisms has fascinated political science and public administration scholars for a long time. A robust and growing body of studies have identified the existence and importance of learning mechanisms in policy diffusion. However, there are still some gaps that need to be further improved. First, scholars identify the learning mechanism mainly based on indirect evidence, such as geographical proximity and successful innovation policies adopted by other jurisdictions, which lacking direct and systematic evidence. Second, little is known about how the hierarchical power structure affects the leap from learning behavior to policy adoption. This study provides direct evidence for the promoting effect of intergovernmental learning on policy diffusion by analyzing case of Chinese local financial subsidy policies for new energy vehicles. The empirical results reveal that policy learning in the form of site visits among local governments significantly promotes the policy diffusion, but superior government policy strategy attenuates the influence of interlocal learning on policy diffusion. Also, the initiators and themes of policy learning affect the learning–diffusion linkage, portraying the conditional effects and nuanced dynamics of interlocal policy learning in eliciting policy diffusion.

DAMPAK PEMBANGUNAN INFRASTRUKTUR TERHADAP PENINGKATAN AKTIVITAS PEREKONOMIAN PASAR SENTRAL KABUPATEN SUPIORI

The Central Market of the Supiori Regency is one of the economic centres in the Supiori Regency.However, in its development, it did not turn out as expected.

Recognition of the Specialties of the Kingdom of Yogyakarta and the Practice of Asymmetric Decentralization in Indonesia

Objective: Yogyakarta Palace is a kingdom that existed before Indonesia became independent. Generally, a country can adopt a monarchy as a system of government that applies nationally. However, uniqueness emerged in recognizing the privileges of the Kingdom of Yogyakarta in Indonesia, which still has the authority to regulate its territory but is also under the auspices of the Republic of Indonesia. In response to this phenomenon, this article was created to answer questions regarding (1) a comparison of monarchical systems in the world, (2) the Validity of the Yogyakarta Palace area as a Special Region in Indonesia, and (3) DIY Government Policy Strategy in maintaining and managing the unique features of Yogyakarta. From the results of this analysis, this study aims to provide alternative recommendations for recognizing the kingdom's authority based on practices that occur in Indonesia.
 
 Method: The study uses normative juridical research methods with a conceptual and statutory approach. The theory of asymmetric decentralization is the analytical tool used to see the chain of validity of the privileges of the Yogyakarta Palace.
 
 Result: The results of the analysis show that the authority of the King of the Yogyakarta Palace to lead the Yogyakarta Special Region Province is a form of asymmetric decentralization practice that is different from the implementation of other monarchical systems in the world.
 
 Conclusion: Based on these findings, it can be concluded that a King's authority to regulate his territory does not have to be within the realm of a monarchical system of government. Recognition of the unique features of the Yogyakarta Palace in Indonesia has proven that a kingdom can exist within the territory of a Republic that practices an asymmetric decentralized system. For this reason, further research is needed that can examine unique regional management strategies to strengthen regional autonomy and fiscal independence.

However, it should be noted that the research only focused on one object, and further research is necessary to generalize the findings to a wider population

Welfare impact of improved maize varieties adoption among smallholder farmers in Amuru district of Horo Guduru Wollega, Ethiopia

Government policy strategies, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), are aimed at increasing agricultural productivity, which could contribute to improve household welfare. Hence, understanding smallholder farmers’ low and variable crop yields has been a central research and policy priority in addressing food security. Likewise, the purpose of this study was to assess the impact of adopting improved maize varieties on productivity and food insecurity in Amuru district of Horo Guduru Wollega, Ethiopia. The study utilized cross-sectional household data collected in 2020/2021 from 263 randomly selected sample households. The probit model’s findings indicate that factors that positively influenced households’ adoption of the improved maize varieties included the household head’s education level, the amount of livestock owned, access to credit, access to training, farm size, access to extension agents, and access to information from farmers associations, while factors that negatively influenced adoption included family size and market distance. The endogenous treatment effect model’s findings also showed that IMV adoptions considerably improve smallholder farmers’ welfare by lowering food insecurity and raising their average calorie intake and net crop values. Thus, it is advised that governments and other interested institutions should promote the adoption of improved maize varieties on a larger scale in order to boost maize yield and lower rural household food insecurity.
