This paper uses the methods of System Generalized method of moments (SYS-GMM), mediation effect and linkage effect to investigate the relationship among social organization participation, government governance and the equalization of basic public services from 2007 to 2017 in China. The empirical results show that the participation of social organizations and improvement in the government governance can promote the equalization of basic public services. The government has a greater capacity to drive the equalization of basic public services, but the density of social organizations can serve as a mediator in the equalization of basic public services. The government governance and social organization density have a strong linkage effect, but the link with social organization quality is weak. Furthermore, a linkage effect is evident in medical and health care, public education, environmental protection, and public culture but not in public science and social welfare.

This article examines the effect of corruption on the foreign direct investment (FDI) of BRICS economies, such as Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. An annual data series of BRICS for 1995–2015 is used. The empirical model is estimated by using the system generalized method of moments (SGMM). The estimated outcomes suggest that corruption impacts FDI positively and significantly when these five nations are merged as a single unit. It is because corruption yields a restrictive economic effect. Moreover, the study also revealed that when we study the countries separately, corruption has a negative and significant effect on FDI in Brazil, China and India, whereas, the relationship becomes insignificant for Russia and South Africa. Results suggest that governments should enhance their policies to control corruption. Furthermore, to attract more FDI, the government of each country should look into the motivation behind their FDI inflows and tailor their polices accordingly.

The “electronic government” movement has swept across most countries in the last decade. This movement represents a new paradigm for public services. As we know, traditional public services may be improved in many ways by the Internet. According to the literature reviewed, we found many studies were only focused on how to technically establish Web sites that allow citizens appropriate access to government information. However, few studies paid attention to the relationship management among the different e-government stakeholders. Therefore, the objective of this chapter is to integrate the relationship management among the three groups of stakeholders: the government itself, its citizens and employees. In this chapter, we will examine the literature regarding to the underlying rationale of a successful e-government. Also, an evaluation system for the usability of government Web sites that support relationship management among citizens, government employees and public services are developed and empirically tested.

The rapid economic development has severely damaged the ecological environment and affected public health. Firms are the main source of pollution; thus, corporate environmental responsibility (CER) has attracted great attention from the government, shareholders and the public. This study used both the fixed effects model and the system GMM (Generalized Method of Moments) model to examine the relationship between environmental pollution, environmental regulations and CER for 30 provinces in China, over the period 2005 to 2015. This study drew the following results: first, mandatory CER disclosure policy can significantly decrease environmental pollution. Second, an inverted U-shaped relationship exists between environmental regulations and environmental pollution. Third, environmental pollution has a positive impact on CER. Fourth, an inverted U-shaped relationship exists between environmental regulations and CER. Therefore, it is necessary to find a balance between environmental regulations affecting environmental pollution and CER so that they can effectively reduce environmental pollution and increase the enthusiasm of firms to carry out environmental responsibility activities.

This study established a relationship of innovations and employees’ job performance in the government sector and also the mediating effect of technology towards the relationship. It adopted quantitative approach where data was collected through questionnaires survey and analyzed statistically. The questionnaire survey utilized simple random sampling methods among UAE government employees. A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed randomly and 265 were returned indicates 88.3% response rate. The collected data was then used to develop and assess SEM-AMOS mediation model. The results found that all the direct relationships reported a positive effect. It also found that the innovation dimension constructs and technology mediating construct havingexplained 84% variation in employees’ job performance constructs. For indirect/mediation effect, it was found that technology does not show any mediation effect on the relationship between innovation and job performance constructs. This implies that technology does not mediate the relationship between innovation strategies and the employees’ job performance. It also implies that for an effective employees’ job performance core attention to building and managing an innovation approach is required in the UAE government sector. Thus, innovation strategies give more influence to employees’ job performance in the government sector through the distinctive capabilities of UAE ministry employees.

Service Theory

Objectives: The new public service theory is a new theory and practice mode of public administration, which provides an important theoretical platform and a new perspective for the construction of government service center. Value pluralism will inevitably make it difficult for a single value appeal to be consistent with the public value of the public. Methods: If the principle of single value supremacy is the only one, it will promote the infinite development of a certain kind of sports social organizations. Results: To improve the supply efficiency of sports public services, social sports services belong to public organizations, and their development aims to provide social sports services for all citizens, which requires a large number of human resources to participate in public sports services and management. The development of sports social organizations is influenced by economic development and the implementation of the national regional development strategy, the understanding of the government and relevant departments, and the development of sports public services. Conclusion: The choice of paths to promote the innovation mode of social services will provide better public services for improving the existing supply mode and system of public services.
