Religion, Administration & Public Goods: Experimental Evidence From Russia, Theocharis N. Grigoriadis
Religion, Administration & Public Goods: Experimental Evidence From Russia, Theocharis N. Grigoriadis
Theocharis Grigoriadis
In this paper, I argue that religion matters for the provision of public goods. I identify three normative foundations of Eastern Orthodox monasticism with strong economic implications: 1. solidarity, 2. obedience, and 3. universal discipline. I propose and solve a public goods game with a three-tier hierarchy, where these norms are modeled as treatments. Obedience and universal discipline facilitate the provision of threshold public goods in equilibrium, whereas solidarity does not. Empirical evidence is drawn from public goods experiments run with regional bureaucrats in Tomsk and Novosibirsk, Russia. The introduction of the same three norms as experimental treatments produces different …
Religious Origins Of Democracy & Dictatorship, Theocharis Grigoriadis
Religious Origins Of Democracy & Dictatorship, Theocharis Grigoriadis
Theocharis Grigoriadis
Weber considered the Protestant work ethic the foundation of modern capitalism. I extend Weber’s theory by arguing that states with predominantly Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Muslim populations have had a stronger inclination toward underdevelopment and dictatorship than states with Protestant or Jewish majorities. This is the case because their respective religious collectives (monastery, tariqa) promote the hierarchical provision of common goods at the expense of market incentives. I define the aforementioned three religions as collectivist, in contrast to Protestantism and Judaism, which I define as individualist. I provide a historical overview that designates the Jewish kibbutz as the collective …

You Say You Want A (Nonviolent) Revolution, Well Then What? Translating Western Thought, Strategic Ideological Cooptation, And Institution Building For Freedom For Governments Emerging Out Of Peaceful Chaos, Donald J. Kochan
Donald J. Kochan
With nonviolent revolution in particular, displaced governments leave a power and governance vacuum waiting to be filled. Such vacuums are particularly susceptible to what this Article will call “strategic ideological cooptation.” Following the regime disruption, peaceful chaos transitions into a period in which it is necessary to structure and order the emergent governance scheme. That period in which the new government scheme emerges is particularly fraught with danger when growing from peaceful chaos because nonviolent revolutions tend to be decentralized, unorganized, unsophisticated, and particularly vulnerable to cooptation. Any external power wishing to influence events in societies emerging out of peaceful …

Central And Eastern Europe: Europeanization And Westernization Through Accession Conditionality, Michael K. Marriott
Central And Eastern Europe: Europeanization And Westernization Through Accession Conditionality, Michael K. Marriott
Michael K Marriott
With 27 member states, the EU is not a body in and of itself, but rather is a central authority constituted of its member states. In order to create a reasonable level of coherence within the Union, the national politics of each member state must undergo a process of Europeanization so as to find a common ground for the members to work together. This leads to the logical question: ‘to what extent are national politics Europeanized?’ Although important to consider, this question is overly broad for the purposes of this paper. A more appropriate question, one that exists within the …

Las Comparaciones No Son Odiosas: Métodos Y Estrategias En Política Comparada, Lucas Jolías, Augusto Reina
Augusto Reina
El desarrollo de la ciencia política tanto en los Estados Unidos como en Europa, ha tenido un sustancial apoyo de la política comparada en el proceso de institucionalización y profesionalización de la disciplina. Muchos de los nombres más influyentes de la ciencia política del siglo pasado, han pertenecido notoriamente al campo de la comparación. Si la ciencia política argentina está atravesando un proceso de consolidación como campo de estudio en las ciencias sociales, la política comparada no puede quedar fuera de ello. El objetivo de este trabajo es brindar una introducción a los principales aspectos de la política comparada, haciendo …

Towards A New Transitional Justice Model: Assessing The Serbian Case, Roozbeh (Rudy) B. Baker
Towards A New Transitional Justice Model: Assessing The Serbian Case, Roozbeh (Rudy) B. Baker
Roozbeh (Rudy) B. Baker
Given the “third wave” of democratic development and entrenchment that has taken hold around the world within the past three decades, the topic of how these transitioning societies cope with the legacy of atrocity and criminality that often accompany authoritarian rule has taken on a fresh salience. The structural, ethical, legal, and political problems faced during such transitions have become the topic of a burgeoning “transitional justice” sub-field within the fields of Law and Political Science. This Article will survey key episodes of transitional justice in various countries since the 1970s, and then apply the lessons gleaned to the transition …
Does The Constitutional Process Matter?, Zachary Elkins
Does The Constitutional Process Matter?, Zachary Elkins
Zachary Elkins
Constitution-making is a ubiquitous but poorly understood phenomenon. There is much speculation but relatively little evidence about the impact of different design processes on constitutional outcomes. Much of the debate reduces to the question of who is involved in the process and when. We consider two central issues in this regard. The first is the problem of institutional self-dealing, or whether governmental organs that have something to gain from the constitutional outcome should be involved in the process. The second has to do with the merits of public involvement in the process. Both of these concerns have clear normative implications …
