Conflicts in Multiple Institutional Logic and Action Strategies in the Implementation of Social Policies——A Case Study of the Establishment of Public Cultural Service Demonstration Area in City T
The context of implementing social policies is often divergent and competitive.Thus,how to balance the interests and values of multiple subjects in order to promote local economic development and provide sufficient public welfare for the general population is a challenging issue for local governments.By virtue of this,the paper develops an analytical framework of multiple institutional logic,taking the process of creating a public cultural service demonstration area in City T,Hubei Province,as a case study,to examine the competition in the multiple logic and action strategies of local governments in the implementation of social policies.The research finds that the local implementation of social policies faces multiple institutional logic.The conflicts of multiple institutional logic under the institutional pressure and tension of action situations are the institutional basis for local governments to strategically implement social policies.The cognitive schemas of key actors constitute the micro foundation of policy implementation,and the continuous interaction between institutions and actors leads situational autonomy to a short-term or long-term behavioral strategy for local governments to deal with conflicts.This study opens a new perspective for understanding the implementation process of social policies by integrating more dynamic institutional environments with grassroots behavioral patterns,elucidating and revealing"why policy implementation takes such forms,"and advancing the micro foundation of research on policy implementation.
