Who Preaches Protectionism? Economic and Electoral Influences on Trade-Related Position Taking in the Senate
WHO PREACHES PROTECTIONISM? ECONOMIC AND ELECTORAL INFLUENCES ON TRADE-RELATED POSITION TAKING IN THE SENATE Robert A. Galantucci A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of Political Science. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Layna Mosley Timothy McKeown Thomas Oatley John Aldrich ABSTRACT ROBERT A. GALANTUCCI: Who Preaches Protectionism? Economic and Electoral Influences on Trade-Related Position Taking in the Senate (Under the direction of Layna Mosley.) Existing studies of Congressional behavior devote little attention to understand- ing legislators' trade-related position taking outside the context of roll call votes. Using a new dataset on bill sponsorship that spans fifteen congresses, the au- thor explores the factors that affect a senator's propensity to introduce protec- tionist trade bills, including state-level manufacturing characteristics, economic cycles and electoral vulnerability. The results provide support for a number of the prominent economic-based explanations for trade policy preferences, including the Heckscher-Ohlin and Ricardo-Viner models, and also draw attention to several additional economic and political influences on policy outcomes. Beyond trade politics, these findings have implications for the expanding body of research on bill sponsorship as well as the literature on the role of Congress in U.S. foreign policy making. i Table of Contents List of Tables ................................................................................ -

Once again we have entered an era in which the (unintended) consequences of government regulation and central banking are attributed to “capitalism.” What keeps you motivated as a writer? The short answer is: allergy. I know well enough that there is little or no use in arguing against populist politicians and pundits who denounce greedy capitalism and insufficiently controlled markets that, they claim, have brought catastrophe and will bring catastrophe again. -

ISBN: 978-1-947236-00-4 MOLINARI REVIEW The Molinari Review is a peer-reviewed, open-access, print-on-demand, interdiscipli- nary journal of libertarian research. We publish scholarship, sympathetic or critical, in and/or on the libertarian tradition, broadly understood as including classical liberalism, individualist anarchism, social anarchism, anarcho-capitalism, anarcho- communism, anarcho-syndicalism, anarcha-feminism, panarchism, voluntaryism, mu- tualism, agorism, distributism, bleeding-heart libertarianism, Austrianism, Georgism, public choice, and beyond – essentially, everything from Emma Goldman to Ayn Rand, C. L. R. James to F. A. Hayek, Alexis de Tocqueville to Michel Foucault. (We see exciting affiliations among these strands of the libertarian tradition; but you don’t have to agree with us about that to publish in our pages.) Disciplines in which we seek to publish include philosophy, political science, eco- nomics, history, sociology, psychology, anthropology, theology, ecology, literature, and law. We aim to enhance the visibility of libertarian scholarship, to expand the boundaries of traditional libertarian discussion, and to provide a home for cutting- edge research in the theory and practice of human liberty. INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS Submissions should be sent by email to Roderick T. Long at [email protected] as Word .doc or .docx files, prepared for blind review (i.e. all author information re- moved), and accompanied by an abstract of around 150 words as a guide for referees. -

Their paper represents the most robust analysis of the Cambodian education premium yet published, reporting premiums for men and women from three different time periods (1997, 2004, 2007), including a series of control variables in their regressions, and using both OLS and IV methodology.2 Following a convention of education economics, Lall and Sakellariou (2010) use a variation of the standard Mincer model (see Heckman et al. -

For all formal use please refer to the official version on the website, as linked below. Student Book Features: Anarchist Political Theory https://www.e-ir.info/2013/10/04/student-book-features-anarchist-political-theory/ JAMES WAKEFIELD, OCT 4 2013 ‘Anarchy,’ writes April Carter, ‘means literally “without government,” and the lowest common denominator of anarchist thought is the conviction that existing forms of government are productive of wars, internal violence, repression and misery.’[1] The last few years of political history have provided a good deal of evidence to support the anarchists’ conception of government, and with this has come a resurgence of the language of anti-politics: opposition not just to specific regimes, but to the very idea of authority that they embody. In this review I discuss two recent paperback re-issues of old books on anarchist (or, at least, anti-government) political theory. These are Carter’s The Political Theory of Anarchism (hereafter PTA), which first appeared in 1971, a year that seems all the more distant when we consider that Rawls’s game-changing A Theory of Justice was published the same year; and De Jasay’s Against Politics: On Government, Anarchy, and Order (hereafter AP), which is comparatively new, having seen the light in 1997. Even so, the essays contained in it are older, having been published between 1989 and 1996, though in one case slightly shortened for inclusion in the volume. -
