DOI: 10.1002/bies.201900173

Abstract: Theories of the genetics underlying punctuated equilibrium (PE) have been vague to date. Here the developmental gene hypothesis is proposed, which states that: 1) developmental regulatory (DevReg) genes are responsible for the orchestration of metazoan… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/pab.2024.31

Abstract: Abstract Despite its many extensions and implications, we argue that punctuated equilibrium itself has two core, empirical claims: (1) stasis dominates within fossil species; and (2) morphological change is concentrated in pulses that occur associated… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Political Analysis"

DOI: 10.1017/pan.2021.25

Abstract: Punctuated Equilibrium Theory posits that policy-making is generally characterized by long periods of stability that are interrupted by short periods of fundamental policy change. The literature converged on the measure of kurtosis and L-kurtosis to… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "International Journal of Public Sector Performance Management"

DOI: 10.1504/ijpspm.2021.10036675

Abstract: This article draws on the punctuated equilibrium theory for a theoretical backdrop to examine the causes of incremental and revolutionary changes in LGIP innovations using secondary sources of information. The study finds that the adoption… read more here.
