Ethnic and religious policies play a crucial role in promoting social inclusion, political stability, and sustainable development in multi-ethnic regions. In the Mekong Delta, Vietnam, increasing pressures from climate change and economic restructuring have created new challenges for the effectiveness of ethnic and religious governance. Existing studies often consider these issues individually, lacking an integrated policy framework. This study uses a quantitative research design, collecting survey data from 420 households in three representati...

Kee Hoon Chung , Hyunjung Kim
J. Policy Stud. 2026;41(1):19-39.

This study draws from national non-profit data in Israel (translated into English) and is supplemented with field research on non-profit ethnic identity to create an original dataset of nonprofit capacity. The study seeks to in...

Jeeyeon Kim
J. Policy Stud. 2026;41(1):77-96.
https://doi.org/10.52372/jps.250238
Collaboration is an interactive process that requires coordination between multiple actors. What happens to an organization’s performance when collaborating parties perceive the situation differently? Due to power asymmetries and goal diversities, participants might experience perceptual incongruence in the participation level of other stakeholders. Perceptual incongruence could affect a collaboration network’s trust-building process and problem-solving ability, ultimately harming the organization’s performance. Using the Georgia School C...
