Understanding The Rise And Transformation Of Business Collective Action In India, Aseema Sinha
Understanding The Rise And Transformation Of Business Collective Action In India, Aseema Sinha
CMC Faculty Publications and Research
Scholars of business associations have recently learned a great deal about how associations contribute to development, but much less about the origins of such developmental associations. This essay introduces and assesses a new political explanation for the origins of ‘developmental associations.’ Conventional wisdom holds that developmental associations must be able to rise above political and collusive pressures and establish autonomy from states. Yet, I argue that these associations’ developmental capacities emerge as a result of active state support by key actors, and in response to challenges and threats posed by competitive business organizations. Developmental associations emerge and acquire their capacities …
The Political Economy Of Perverse Financial Liberalization: Examples From The Asian Crisis, Nancy Neiman Auerbach, Thomas D. Willett
The Political Economy Of Perverse Financial Liberalization: Examples From The Asian Crisis, Nancy Neiman Auerbach, Thomas D. Willett

Debates continue to rage about the causes of recent currency and financial crises around the globe and their implications for the desirability of domestic and international financial liberalization. Beneath the heated exchanges of the most vocal disputants, a quiet consensus is beginning to emerge among serious scholars and policy officials. The big lesson from these crises is that while financial liberalization is still a desirable goal, it must be approached very carefully. It’s not just that without the proper pre-conditions liberalization will not provide full benefits. The results can sometimes be disastrous. What was once considered to be an arcane …
War And Democracy, Gregory Hess, Athanasios Orphanides
War And Democracy, Gregory Hess, Athanasios Orphanides
CMC Faculty Publications and Research
We present a general equilibrium model of conflict to investigate whether the prevalence of democracy is sufficient to foster the perpetual peace hypothesized by Immanuel Kant and whether the world would necessarily become more peaceful as more countries adopt democratic institutions. Our exploration suggests that neither hypothesis is true. The desire of incumbent leaders with unfavorable economic performance to hold on to power generates an incentive to initiate conflict and salvage their position—with some probability. An equilibrium with positive war frequency is sustained even if all nations were to adopt representative democratic institutions and even in the absence of an …
Preference Areas And Intra-Product Specialization, Sven W. Arndt
Preference Areas And Intra-Product Specialization, Sven W. Arndt
CMC Faculty Publications and Research
The theory of preferential trade liberalizations has traditionally focused on trade in final products rather than components and parts. It has also seen such agreements in the main as trade agreements, although its insights have been applied successfully to the creation of Europe's Single Market, the so-called "Europe 1992" project. It has tended as well to focus on agreements involving countries at relatively similar stages of economic development. Inauguration of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), on the other hand, has drawn attention to trade in components, to regional investment liberalization, and to preferential agreements linking developed and developing …
Extensions Of Power Transition: Applications To Political Economy, Jacek J. Kugler
Extensions Of Power Transition: Applications To Political Economy, Jacek J. Kugler
CGU Faculty Publications and Research
This is a paper about theory in political economy terms and political economy in theoretical terms. It unifies power transition theory and applies it to the central questions that now confront political economists. Will trade wars emerge as the security challenge declines? What are the economic effects of integration, trade and growth? How will economic patterns influence international power relationships? This paper offers a preliminary bridge whereon practitioners and theorist may meet to assess the challenges that lie at the intersection between politics and economics. The economic collapse and political dissolution of the Soviet Union left policymakers and scholars searching …
Deterrence And The Arms Race: The Impotence Of Power, Jacek J. Kugler, Abramo Fimo Kenneth Organski, Daniel J. Fox

So much has been done in the name of nuclear deterrence, so much destructive power built by ourselves and the Russians that it may seem rather late in the day, not to say absurd, to wonder whether or not mutual deterrence really occurs and ask what evidence can be adduced to prove it. Yet such a question may be essential to an understanding of international nuclear politics. The problems thus posed are difficult, however, and cannot be solved by direct means. What one needs to do is to establish empirically whether the conditions necessary for deterrence to be taking place …
