Realizing a blockchain solution without blockchain? Blockchain, solutionism, and trust Regul. Gov. (IF 3.203) Pub Date : 2023-09-15 Gert Meyers, Esther Keymolen
Blockchain is employed as a technology holding a solutionist promise, while at the same time, it is hard for the promissory blockchain applications to become realized. Not only is the blockchain protocol itself not foolproof, but when we move from “blockchain in general” to “blockchain in particular,” we see that new governance structures and ways of collaborating need to be developed to make blockchain

Judges on the Benchmark: Developing a Sentencing Feedback System Justice Quarterly (IF 3.985) Pub Date : 2023-09-07 Viet Nguyen, Greg Ridgeway
Abstract Judges receive limited information on how their sentencing practices contribute to inter-judge sentencing disparities which can undermine equity and the perceptions of legitimacy. We use doubly robust, internal benchmarking to measure the effect of each judge on sentencing outcomes relative to a set of cases that are handled by the judge’s peers and that are statistically similar on all observable

Increasing Liberalization: A Time Series Analysis of the Public’s Mood toward Drugs Justice Quarterly (IF 3.985) Pub Date : 2023-09-06 Benjamin Thomas Kuettel
Abstract Previous research suggests that American drug sentiment is becoming more liberal. However, the absence of a reliable and valid over time measure limits our understanding of changes in drug attitudes. This project utilizes the dyad ratios algorithm and 298 administrations of 66 unique survey indicators to develop a measure of public mood toward drugs from 1969 to 2021. I find that drug mood

Rethinking complementarity: The co-evolution of public and private governance in corporate climate disclosure Regul. Gov. (IF 3.203) Pub Date : 2023-08-21 Christian Elliott, Amy Janzwood, Steven Bernstein, Matthew Hoffmann
In its 20 years of operation, the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) has been enormously successful as a private governor of corporate climate risk disclosure. Despite an influx of potentially competitive government-led disclosure initiatives and interventions, the use of CDP's platform has nonetheless accelerated. To explain this outcome, we argue that public interventions augment the value of private

The Residue of Imprisonment: Prisoner Reentry and Carceral Gang Spillover Justice Quarterly (IF 3.985) Pub Date : 2023-08-17 David C. Pyrooz
Abstract What happens to the gang ties of people when they leave prison and return to the community? There is much speculation but little empirical research concerning carceral gang spillover, which refers to the reproduction of prison gang associations, identities, politics, and structures in communities. This study examined continuity and change in gang embeddedness in a representative sample of

Abstract Although the typical end goal of an online grooming event is to lure a minor into performing sexual activity (either online or offline), no previous study has examined the relevance of targets’ sexual knowledge on the progression of these events. To address this gap, we deployed two honeypot chatbots which simulated young female users in a sample of twenty-three online chatrooms, over a period

Fines and other financial sanctions are frequently imposed by criminal justice systems around the world. Yet they also raise grave concerns about economic discrimination. Unless they are perfectly scaled to defendants’ financial circumstances, they will penalize poor persons far more than rich ones—and poor defendants’ inability to pay can lead to further penalties like imprisonment or additional financial

Police Stops and Subsequent Delinquency and Arrest: Race and Gender Differences Justice Quarterly (IF 3.985) Pub Date : 2023-07-20 Abigail Novak, Shelby Gilbreath
Abstract Research suggests police stops are associated with delinquency and arrest in adolescence, but limited research has examined the extent to which these associations vary by intersectional identities. The labeling and life-course perspectives argue police stops may increase later delinquency/arrest and that these relationships may vary according to when an individual is first stopped. Critical

This article addresses a key political question regarding the relationship between states and their citizens: how harsh are judicial systems in their punishment of those who deviate from the law? Punitiveness is a fraught concept in the existing literature and robust measurement methods maximizing conceptual complexity are lacking. Here I develop a functional approach to punitiveness through a revised

Abstract There has been an increased focus on the factors that influence gang continuity given the short- and long-term consequences associated with gang membership. Despite this, Asian gangs—notably the Hmong—have rarely been at the center of these academic inquiries. This is especially troubling given that their cultural and historical profile provides a unique vantage point for assessing how culture

Scholars employ two main measures of the executive constraints embedded in European Union laws: one is based on the variation in the use of different types of restrictions, and the second is based on the frequency of such use. They reflect two alternative conceptualizations of bureaucratic control. We label them, respectively, as the “toolbox perspective” and the “design perspective”. We illustrate

Jurisdictional overlap: The juxtaposition of institutional independence and collaboration in police wrongdoing investigations Regul. Gov. (IF 3.203) Pub Date : 2023-06-22 Jihyun Kwon
Introducing multiple layers of “independent” structures has become a go-to strategy for public agent oversight. The question remains whether such decentralized, overlapping structural arrangements of oversight reduce regulatory uncertainty and produce better policy outcomes. Using the case study of Ontario, Canada, I examine the consequences of institutional layering for the specific and broader goal

Statistical profiling algorithms claiming to predict which jobseekers are at risk of becoming long-term unemployed are spread unevenly across countries. However, the pathways and histories of these tools are understudied. Because the profiling path in France is a winding one, it is fruitful to study the production of profiling acceptability within the Public Employment Service (PES), and upstream of

OBJECTIVE Responding to the concern about racial/ethnic disparities (R/ED) in the use of risk assessment instruments (RAIs) in justice systems, previous research has overwhelmingly tested the extent to which RAI scores consistently predict recidivism across race and ethnicity (predictive bias). However, little is known about R/ED in the association between RAI measures and court dispositions (disparate
