As mentioned in the proposal for the first project phase, research in the second phase focuses on the effects of different coordination patterns in multilevel administration, defined as substance, scope and effectiveness of policy making. Our empirical research on patterns of multilevel administration has revealed that regardless of formal powers and available modes of coordination, administrations tend to coordinate their policies by cooperation and persuasion. Therefore, structures of communication between national and international administrations constitute an essential condition to explain policy outcomes. These structures can be asymmetric and selective, thus expressing real patterns of power and influence. These patterns and their effects will be identified for selected cases that represent important coordination patterns in their respective contexts. Power and influence will be determined by network analysis of data gained by questionnaires, while we intend to capture the consequences of administrative coordination by interviews addressed to experts in administrations of IO and by a qualitative content analysis of publicly available documents. We will systematically evaluate our findings through Qualitative Comparative Analysis (QCA). Guided by the framework of the research group, the project will further elaborate the concept of administrative governance for multilevel administration and aims primarily at nodality as a fundamental concept to understand coordination between national and international administration.

如项目第一阶段的提案所述，第二阶段的研究重点是不同协调模式在多层次行政管理中的影响，即决策的实质、范围和效力。我们对多级行政模式的实证研究表明，无论正式权力和现有的协调模式如何，行政部门都倾向于通过合作和说服来协调政策。因此，国家和国际行政部门之间的沟通结构是解释政策结果的一个必要条件。这些结构可以是不对称的和有选择性的，从而表现出权力和影响力的真实的模式。这些模式及其影响将在代表各自背景下重要协调模式的选定案例中加以确定。权力和影响力将通过对问卷调查获得的数据进行网络分析来确定，而我们打算通过对IO管理部门专家的访谈和对公开文件的定性内容分析来捕获行政协调的后果。我们将通过定性比较分析（QCA）系统地评估我们的研究结果。在研究小组框架的指导下，该项目将进一步阐述多级行政管理的行政治理概念，主要目的是将共同性作为理解国家和国际行政之间协调的基本概念。
