- ‘Hyper-active Governance’ (269 pages) took eight years of research, including: 1) Complex process tracing (three agencies) over three years analysing 288 media reports; database of 11,000 stakeholder submissions, and 186 agency publications, and four months fieldwork (35 semi-structured elite interviews); 2) Quantitative and qualitative datasets produced over three years, encompassing: 31 interest groups; 31 medical agencies; 12 water management agencies; 52 emergency response agencies; 120 central banks, and 26 election administration agencies; 3) Theorising implications of these data creatively using a theoretical framework (social acceleration theory) completely new to delegated governance. This complex analytical task took two years.
