  • Legislators' Trade Policy Preferences and Legislative Behavior1
    Heeding to the Losers: Legislators’ Trade Policy Preferences and Legislative Behavior1 M.Victoria Murillo2 and Pablo M. Pinto3 Abstract To further our understanding of the supply side of trade policymaking, we explore legislators’ preferences and responsiveness to trade’s distributional consequences on their local constituents. Drawing on a survey experiment of legislators in the Argentine Congress and a roll call vote to a salient trade bill in the same legislature, we analyze a link between legislators’ policy preferences, their local constituencies, and their legislative behavior. Concern about the effects of trade policy at the local level weakens legislators’ support for trade and explains their legislative behavior: despite institutional incentives for partisan discipline, Argentine legislators representing agricultural producing areas are more likely to break with their party and vote against an export tax on agricultural products. Our findings demonstrate that distributional consequences of trade at the local level play a central role in trade politics, even in settings where electoral incentives push legislators to toe the party line. Keywords: trade policy; roll call vote; survey experiments; party discipline 1 Recipient of 2016 MPSA Award for best paper in International Relations presented at the 2015 Meeting of the Midwest Political Science Association. 2 Department of Political Science, Columbia University; [email protected]. 3 Department of Political Science, University of Houston; [email protected] Introduction Recent contributions to the political economy of trade have concentrated on the sources of individual preferences towards protectionism.1 Yet trade policy is rarely enacted by referendum. Indeed, Figure 1 presents a scatterplot of the average level of public support for free trade and openness around the world.

Many studies of federal countries have regarded governors as national veto players even though they do not have such a constitutional status. However, the statistical tests of comparative legislative studies and those of comparative federalism have not succeeded in showing gubernatorial effects on a national political arena. In this dissertation, I study the conditions under which governors can be national veto players by focusing on the treatment of presidential bills between 1983 and 2007 in the Argentine Senate. The dissertation shows that the Senate serves as an arena for subnational governments to influence national politics.

Para lograr eso se realizó una encuesta en cada una de las provincias a expertos en política provincial. En total se consultaron a 191 expertos. El trabajo ofrece la estimación promedio de 117 políticos provinciales, así como el error estándar de esas estimaciones, y se pone a prueba la hipótesis acerca de que las diferencias en el estilo están asociadas a la pertenencia a un espacio político. En otras palabras, que los políticos panperonistas tienden a tener un estilo Low y los no peronistas, y en especial los de Cambiemos, un estilo High. Palabras clave: Alto-Bajo, estilo político, política subnacional, encuesta, peronismo. ABSTRACT This article estimates the position of the main provincial leaders according to their political style, “Low” (informal-popular) or “High” (sober-refined), in terms of Pierre Ostiguy´s framework. To achieve this, a expert-survey was carried out in each province. 191 experts were consulted. The work offers the average estimate of 117 provincial politicians, as well as the standard error of those estimates, and tests the hypothesis that differences in style are associated with the leaders´s political space.

  • Why Programmatic Versus Discretionary Spending in Argentina?
    Targeting Allies and Enemies: Why Programmatic versus Discretionary Spending in Argentina? Tracy Beck Fenwick, Australian National University Lucas González, Universidad Nacional de San Martín *Preliminary Draft: Please do not Circulate or Cite without Authors Permission Introduction Presidents have a portfolio of social programs and grants to deliver policies and target voters favouring some provinces and municipalities over others within a federation. Some of these programs and grants can be quite insulated from political discretion and pressures (we call them programmatic), while others are usually discretionary, or very easy to manipulate politically. Scholars have long studied the politics behind the distribution of discretionary grants and the conditions under which incumbents choose to craft programmatic policies. In terms of what is often referred to as geographically targeted-spending, presidents tend to disproportionally favour allied territories when distributing discretionary funds. The established literature shows that voters are often targeted to support political parties via a top-down strategy of distribution, as well as subnational politicians in federal countries, who are often targeted with federal funds in order to favour support in congress or influence the legislative arena. We know the top-down provisioning of public funds to constituent units is a powerful tool available to presidents to either generate political loyalties or penalise political enemies. On the other hand, the well-established positive political economy literature provides some convincing accounts as to why politicians decide to invest in broad programmatic policies that tend to be less geographically targeted. According to Stein et. Al (2004: 40), this type of spending is assumed to be more likely to treat all units equally.
