Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: International Review of Administrative Sciences Description: 86(2), Jun, 2020: p.295-315.Subject(s): Politically embedded knowledge regime, Revolving door, Social networks, Think tanks In: International Review of Administrative SciencesSummary: This article conceptualizes a “politically embedded knowledge regime” in which political power is deeply embedded in administrative and personal networks between bureaucratic decision-makers and their professional consultants. To demonstrate the features of the politically embedded knowledge regime, I evaluate the effects of the revolving door on Chinese think tanks. I empirically find that the revolving door has a negligible contribution to the influence and revenue of think tanks in China. Moreover, the revolving door has significantly negatively effects on the personal social network building of think-tankers. Heterogeneous analysis and propensity score matching are conducted to present the robustness of regression results. – Reproduced
