Erratum: Guest editorial: Understanding how to react to crises: public management and administration amidst stability, adaptation and transformation

Abstract

It has come to the attention of the publisher that the editorial by Spacek D and Weiss J (2026), “Guest editorial: Understanding how to react to crises: public management and administration amidst stability, adaptation and transformation,” International Journal of Public Sector Management, Vol. 39 No. 1 pp. 1-6, doi: https://doi.org/10.1108/IJPSM-01-2026-536, had errors introduced into the text. “Another approach to how networks deal with polycrises, or, as they put it, with transboundary crises, is identified by von Zahn et al. (2026) in their contribution: Sharing is caring: effective local crisis management through practice sharing a case study from Germany.” should read “Another approach to how networks deal with polycrises or, as they put it, with transboundary crises, is identified by von Zahn et al. (2026) in their contribution Sharing is caring: effective local crisis management through practice sharing – a case study from Germany.” And “The article Spending and strategic reviews: how do crises matter? By Lindquist and Shepherd (2026), a conceptual map is developed of whether the effects of crises on government budgets and future spending are systematically evaluated, whether the results of these reviews are transformed into policies and whether these policies are successfully implemented.” should read, “The article Spending and strategic reviews: how do crises matter? by Lindquist and Shepherd (2026) develops a conceptual map of whether the effects of crises on government budgets and future spending are systematically evaluated, whether the results of these reviews are transformed into policies and whether these policies are successfully implemented.”This error was introduced during the publication process, for which the publisher apologises.
