“…Artificial intelligence and data-driven decision-making in public administration have taken hold (Auld et al, 2022). Datafication presents many new avenues for public administration scholars to explore including assessing the effects of automation or advancing understandings of algorithmic fairness and accountability (Ávila et al, 2020;Eubanks, 2017). People are increasingly aware of how different aspects of their lives are datafied with implications for how they are governed (Aradau & Blanke, 2022).…”

This paper investigates the influence of algorithms on the administrative processes within public organizations, utilizing the foundational theory of formalization from Walsh and Dewar (1987) as a framework. Introduces the concept of “algorithmic formalization”, a new form of formalization induced by the adoption of algorithms, which fundamentally alters administrative workflows. Focusing on COMPAS algorithm used in the US judiciary for risk assessment, the paper illustrates how the algorithm serves multiple roles – as code, channel, and standard – systematizing administrative processes related to risk assessment and judicial decisions. By delving into COMPAS case study, the research sheds light on the novel concept of algorithmic formalization, emphasizing its significant repercussions for analyzing and applying algorithmic administrative processes.
