Alan Winters, University of Sussex and CEPR A study commissioned from the Centre for Economic Policy Research by the European Commission Group of Policy Advisors Centre for Economic Policy Research The Centre for Economic Policy Research is a network of 600 Research Fellows and Affiliates, based primarily in European universities. The Centre coordinates the research activities of its Fellows and Affiliates and communicates the results to the public and private sectors. CEPR is an entrepreneur, developing research initiatives with the producers, consumers and sponsors of research. Established in 1983, CEPR is a European economics research organization with uniquely wide-ranging scope and activities. CEPR is a registered educational charity. The Centre is supported by the European Central Bank, the Bank for International Settlements, the European Investment Bank, 23 national central banks and 41 companies. None of these organizations gives prior review to the Centre’s publications, nor do they necessarily endorse the views expressed therein. The Centre is pluralist and non-partisan, bringing economic research to bear on the analysis of medium- and long-run policy questions. CEPR research may include views on policy, but the Executive Committee of the Centre does not give prior review to its publications, and the Centre takes no institutional policy positions. The opinions expressed in this report are those of the authors and not those of the Centre for Economic Policy Research.

The concerns of the street protestors: what are the answers? 103 Twelve charges against globalization 104 References 108 Foreword In the light of the on-going debate on globalization, the events surrounding the European Council of Göteborg and the meeting of the G8 in Genoa in 2001 as well as the forthcoming UN conference in Johannesburg, the European Commission considered that public discussion of these issues should be able to draw on as wide a factual base as possible established by acknowledged specialists of irreproachable standing. To this effect, it commissioned from CEPR a review of the existing literature and research on globalization to make available the most up-to-date findings to a wide audience in an easily accessible format presented in non-technical language. In its mandate, the Commission decided to concentrate the treatment of globalization on economic issues in order to make the task manageable. As a result, other important dimensions to the process have had to be left out. The report does not attempt to provide a comprehensive treatment of all possible issues but an in-depth treatment of those that appear significant in the elected field. Within these self-imposed limitations, it succeeds in providing the comprehensive and timely discussion of globalization that the Commission requested. Since the report has been written by the independent experts of CEPR and under their authority, it does not represent an official position of the European Commission on the question of globalization. In many respects the findings will prove controversial, at least to those outside the circle of professional economists, contradicting as they do certain deeply held beliefs about the negative consequences of globalization. Equally, they point to the very real difficulties that certain parts of the world have experienced in trying to integrate with the world economy and to draw positive benefits from the process of globalization. Nor do they neglect the crucial issue of equity, in particular with regard to income inequality and its possible causes. Indeed, the message that governments of both developed and developing countries need to play an active role by putting in place policies which can both enable a successful transition towards open markets and the necessary support for those affected by this transition is well made and one that the Commission would certainly support. Nevertheless, while endorsing broadly the conclusions reached and appreciating the high quality of analysis that has gone into producing the report, the Commission cannot concur with all of its analysis. Since this is an independent report, such a result can be considered as normal. The Commission will use the report along with other contributions, the on-going dialogue with civil society and the work of Commission departments to maintain its efforts to ensure that Europe contributes forcefully to the development of a more humane and more just world order with the instruments at the disposal of the European Union and respecting the rights and individual charteristics of nations large and small. Romano Prodi President of the European Commission June 2002 vi Foreword Globalization is, in some respects, a centuries-old phenomenon. Only now, however, are we examining which aspects of the current wave are old and which are new and the effects of these on poverty and inequality in the world. Furthermore, it is difficult to be sure whether the poor economic performance of some countries (notably in sub- Saharan Africa) is due to their having been insufficiently open to the world economy, or whether they lacked the institutions and capacities (such as in human capital) that would have enabled them to embrace globalization successfully. This report analyses how various institutions, including corporations, national governments and the many institutions of civil society, have responded or potentially could respond to these developments. The authors consider the scope for more effective cooperation between national governments, devoting particular attention to the appropriate response of the European Union. They conclude by summarizing what economic research has to say about the concerns of the anti-globalization campaigners, how the potentially significant costs of globalization can be mitigated, and how a failure to address them would risk provoking a backlash that could destroy many of the real gains that globalization has achieved. The opinions expressed in this report are those of the authors and not those of the Centre for Economic Policy Research, which takes no institutional positions. The study was commissioned by the Group of Policy Advisors to the President of the European Commission, whose Foreword puts it in context. The report also does not represent the views of the Commission, which takes no responsibilty for any use of this material. Hilary Beech Chief Executive Officer CEPR 24 June 2002 Executive Summary This study surveys recent research about the economic effects of globalization. In some respects globalization is a centuries-old phenomenon, so we begin by asking what is old and what is new about the current wave, drawing particular comparisons with the late nineteenth century. We then go on to ask what is known about how globalization expands the reach of markets, including the markets for goods and services, as well as the markets for capital and labour. We summarize what have been the effects on poverty and inequality in the world, and assess the risks to future generations. World inequality in incomes has increased dramatically over the last two centuries.

D. [email protected] [email protected] Conference DRAFT subject to revision. Please do not quote [Printed on: Thursday, December 08, 2011, 20:24. Version 7] “The challenge is to improve our understanding of the linkages between the financial sector and real activity” Donald Kohn, Vice-Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve, Speech, November 2008 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Challenge of regulating housing markets for stability and social access in a new era The global financial and economic crisis of 2007-09 (GFC) has ushered us into a new global economic, social, political and environmental era. Prior to the global financial crisis, in high income economies decades of financial liberalization and innovation had seen quickening waves of housing price cycles of increasing amplitude, especially in the U.S. that has been the dominant economy. (FIGURE 1). We expect that many national housing systems will now perform differently from the way they did during the Great Moderation and the great liquidity boom that fed the global housing boom.2 National policy makers are confronted collectively with the challenge of regulating housing markets to make them more robust and achieve two things simultaneously: on one hand prevent the recurrence of the large bubbles that triggered a systemic financial crisis in the US and several other Western economies, on the other hand insure that the housing system provides access to a socially acceptable level of housing services for all households across all forms of tenure: ownership, private rental and social rental.

  • The Return of Geo-Economics: Globalisation and National Security
    perspectives The Return of Geo-economics: Globalisation and National Security Mark P. Thirlwell S e p t e m b e r 2 0 1 0 The Lowy Institute for International Policy is an independent international policy think tank. Its mandate ranges across all the dimensions of international policy debate in Australia – economic, political and strategic – and it is not limited to a particular geographic region. Its two core tasks are to: • produce distinctive research and fresh policy options for Australia’s international policy and to contribute to the wider international debate. • promote discussion of Australia’s role in the world by providing an accessible and high­ quality forum for discussion of Australian international relations through debates, seminars, lectures, dialogues and conferences. Lowy Institute Perspectives are occasional papers and speeches on international events and policy. The views expressed in this paper are the author’s own and not those of the Lowy Institute for International Policy. The return of geo­economics: Globalisation and national security 1 Mark Thirlwell Globalisation, international economics and national security Inevitably, thinking about our national security environment requires grappling with a wide range of issues. These include those found in the traditional security sphere as well as such non­traditional security challenges as natural disasters, climate change and pandemics. It also involves understanding the changing international economic environment, including the far­ reaching implications of globalisation. In particular, I think it’s extremely hard to argue with the proposition that the current international environment is one that is marked by an increasingly dense entanglement of issues related to international economics, national security and foreign policy.

    Appendix: \Ideology, Grandstanding, and Strategic Party Disloyalty in the British Parliament" August 8, 2017 Appendix Table of Contents • Appendix A: Wordscores Estimation of Ideology • Appendix B: MP Membership in Ideological Groups • Appendix C: Rebellion on Different Types of Divisions • Appendix D: Models of Rebellion on Government Sponsored Bills Only • Appendix E: Differences in Labour Party Rebellion Following Leadership Change • Appendix F: List of Party Switchers • Appendix G: Discussion of Empirical Model Appendix A: Wordscores Estimation of Ideology This Appendix describes our method for ideologically scaling British MPs using their speeches on the welfare state, which were originally produced for a separate study on welfare reform (O'Grady, 2017). We cover (i) data collection, (ii) estimation, (iii) raw results, and (iv) validity checks. The resulting scales turn out to be highly valid, and provide an excellent guide to MPs' ideologies using data that is completely separate to the voting data that forms the bulk of the evidence in our paper. A1: Collection of Speech Data Speeches come from an original collection of every speech made about issues related to welfare in the House of Commons from 1987-2007, covering the period over which the Labour party moved 1 to the center under Tony Blair, adopted and enacted policies of welfare reform, and won office at the expense of the Conservatives. Restricting the speeches to a single issue area is useful for estimating ideologies because with multiple topics there is a danger of conflating genuine extremism (a tendency to speak in extreme ways) with a tendency or requirement to talk a lot about topics that are relatively extreme to begin with (Lauderdale and Herzog, 2016).

  • The Anglo French Defence Treaty
    SOME REMARKS ON THE ANGLO-FRENCH DEFENCE TREATY JOHN C. STEVENS NOVEMBER 2011 STRATEGIC UPDATE 11.4 1 SOME REMARKS ON THE ANGLO-FRENCH DEFENCE TREATY There is a well-known (though probably apocryphal) story told of Lord Raglan, the Commander of the British Expeditionary Force to the Crimea, concerning an incident a few days before the Charge of the Light Brigade in 1854. Emerging from his tent in the early morning, he was plunged into panic that his encampment had been overrun by the enemy, because he saw a large number of French soldiers. It was only with difficulty that the senile veteran of Waterloo could be restored from his subsequent swoon with the reminder that these men were now our allies. Similar incomprehension and semi-consciousness seemed to overcome a large section of the British media at the news of the signing, in November of last year, of the Anglo-French Defence Treaty. ‘The Sun’, for instance, usually almost clinically obsessed with France and the military, confined itself to a restrained report just before the show-business section. And it has remained one of the least reported, and analysed, of this Government’s policies, whilst being, without question, one of its most significant. Since 1815, no other major country has been more consistently our ally than France. It is a curiosity of history that when the Entente Cordiale was being negotiated in the spring of 1904, the only extant British war plans against a great power were in the Admiralty, for a naval conflict with the United States.
