Her research focuses on the core mechanisms that contribute to the stability of democratic governance. She conducts theory-driven empirical research on public administration, management and policy, as well as auditing, public accountability, bureaucracy, trust, corruption, and democracy. Dana examines how civic culture and social norms shape institutions responsible for holding public officials accountable and ensuring procedural justice. She also examines how the functioning of these institutions affects citizens’ perceptions of corruption, democratic values, and trust in government.
