ABSTRACT Research on policy accumulation established the hypothesis about a creeping divergence between implementation burdens and capacity. This paper revisits this using improved measures of burden. Using official data administration enforcement costs, it finds that does raise stress within German Statutory Pension Insurance, analyzed as least‐likely case to do so. finding supports “implementation‐gap hypothesis.” More generally, however, serves “prove concept” how adopt an epidemiological perspective research. is characterized by systematically capturing changing prevalence administrative organizations. It enables future research deal with growth more effectively raising awareness for whether where burden capacity diverges strongly, helping identify “best practice” cases able cope successfully.

Democratic governments produce more policies than they can effectively implement. Yet, this gap between the number of requiring implementation and administrative capacities available to do so is not same in all democracies but varies across countries sectors. We argue that variation depends on coupling sectoral bureaucracies charge policy formulation those implementation. consider these patterns vertical policy-process integration an important feature bureaucratic quality. The policymaking level involved (top-down integration) easier policy-implementing finds it feed its concerns into (bottom-up integration), smaller so-called “burden-capacity gap.” demonstrate effect through empirical analysis 21 OECD over a period 40 years areas social environmental policies.

This study examines the relationship between complexity of EU directives and their successful implementation at national level. Moving beyond state‐of‐the‐art, we propose a comprehensive framework considering structural, linguistic, relational dimensions policy complexity. We argue that entails higher transaction costs, hindering effective implementation. Using novel dataset covering roughly 1000 from 1994 to 2022, find strong evidence negatively impacting performance. Moreover, states with administrative capacity are better able process high efficiently Eurosceptic member attract fewer infringement proceedings in highly complex environments than Europhile states. could alternatively point strategic enforcement behavior Commission or bureaucracies less political masters might wish for.

Abstract Research on policy implementation traditionally has focused understanding the success or failure of individual policies within specific contexts. Little attention been given to challenges that emerge from cumulative growth portfolios over time. This paper is addressing this research gap by examining phenomenon organizational triage, which occurs when organizations face overload and are forced make trade‐off decisions between different in their portfolios. We investigate empirical patterns triage across 16 social environmental agencies five European countries (Denmark, Germany, Ireland, Italy, UK). show variation can be explained combination three central factors: blame‐shifting opportunities, mobilization external resources, commitment compensate for authorities.

Continuity of Midwife Care (CoMC) significantly improves maternal and neonatal outcomes, including reducing mortality. However, global implementation remains limited, hindered by various barriers facilitators across healthcare settings. This review reviews synthesizes existing evidence on to CoMC using the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) as an analytical tool. Following Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology, a was conducted. Comprehensive searches Embase, Medline, CINAHL, grey literature identified published between 2013 2024 that addressed implementation. Data were categorized CFIR 2.0 domains: innovation characteristics, outer setting, inner characteristics individuals, processes. Six met inclusion criteria. Barriers systemic included hierarchical power dynamics, limited midwife autonomy, workforce shortages, inadequate policy support. Facilitators more context-specific, influenced infrastructure resources. Key supportive leadership, collaborative care models, national guidelines promoting CoMC. are deeply embedded in systems, while highly dependent local contexts. Bridging evidence-practice gap requires applying science methodologies, such CFIR, inform intervention strategies. Collaboration countries with similar systems can foster knowledge-sharing adaptation successful models. These findings offer actionable insights policymakers professionals advance integration globally.
