Theocracy Metin M. Coşgel University of Connecticut Thomas J. Miceli University of Connecticut Working Paper 2013-29 November 2013 365 Fairfield Way, Unit 1063 Storrs, CT 06269-1063 Phone: (860) 486-3022 Fax: (860) 486-4463 http://www.econ.uconn.edu/ This working paper is indexed on RePEc, http://repec.org THEOCRACY by Metin Coşgel* and Thomas J. Miceli** Abstract: Throughout history, religious and political authorities have had a mysterious attraction to each other. Rulers have established state religions and adopted laws with religious origins, sometimes even claiming to have divine powers. We propose a political economy approach to theocracy, centered on the legitimizing relationship between religious and political authorities. Making standard assumptions about the motivations of these authorities, we identify the factors favoring the emergence of theocracy, such as the organization of the religion market, monotheism vs. polytheism, and strength of the ruler. We use two sets of data to test the implications of the model. We first use a unique data set that includes information on over three hundred polities that have been observed throughout history. We also use recently available cross-country data on the relationship between religious and political authorities to examine these issues in current societies. The results provide strong empirical support for our arguments about why in some states religious and political authorities have maintained independence, while in others they have integrated into a single entity.

The Imperial Roots of Global Trade ∗
The Imperial Roots of Global Trade ∗ Gunes Gokmeny Wessel N. Vermeulenz Pierre-Louis Vézinax October 11, 2017 Abstract Today's countries emerged from hundreds of years of conquests, alliances and downfalls of empires. Empires facilitated trade within their controlled territories by building and securing trade and migration routes, and by imposing common norms, languages, religions, and legal systems, all of which led to the accumulation of trading capital. In this paper, we uncover how the rise and fall of empires over the last 5,000 years still influence world trade. We collect novel data on 5,000 years of imperial history of countries, construct a measure of accumulated trading capital between countries, and estimate its effect on trade patterns today. Our measure of trading capital has a positive and significant effect on trade that survives controlling for potential historical mechanisms such as sharing a language, a religion, genes, a legal system, and for the ease of natural trade and invasion routes. This suggests a persistent and previously unexplained effect of long-gone empires on trade. JEL CODES: F14, N70 Key Words: long run, persistence, empires, trading capital, gravity. ∗We are grateful to Danila Smirnov for excellent research assistance and to Roberto Bonfatti, Anton Howes, Vania Licio, and seminar participants at the 2016 Canadian Economic Association Annual Meeting in Ottawa, King's College London, and the 2017 FREIT Workshop in Cagliari for their constructive comments. yNew Economic School and the Center for the Study of Diversity and Social Interactions, Moscow.

State Capacity, Local Governance, and Economic Development in Vietnam∗
State Capacity, Local Governance, and Economic Development in Vietnam∗ Melissa Dell, Nathan Lane, and Pablo Querubin Harvard and NBER, IIES, and NYU March, 2015 Abstract: There has been a large divergence in economic prosperity between Northeast and Southeast Asia since the mid-20th century. The long-run governance organizations and norms of Asian societies plausibly play an important role in explaining this divergence, and we focus on Vietnam as a laboratory because it forms a bridge between Northeast and Southeast Asia. Northern Vietnam (Dai Viet) was ruled by a bureaucratic state inherited from China. It governed through a centralized, competitively selected bureaucracy, and the village was the fundamental administrative unit. Southern Vietnam was a peripheral tributary of the Khmer (Cambodian) Empire. It followed a patron-client model with weaker, more personalized power relations and no village intermediation. The Khmer region was not brought under Vietnam's control until just prior to French colonization. We use a regression discontinuity design across the Dai Viet-Khmer boundary to compare villages that had a bureaucratic state to nearby areas that had a patron-client state. We find that areas historically under the bureaucratic state have higher living standards today. Using rich data from South Vietnam and the unified Socialist Republic of Vietnam, we document that in villages with a bureaucratic historical state, citizens have been better able to organize for public goods and redistribution through stronger local governments and civil society. However, foreign companies are less likely to invest in historically bureaucratic areas, where the use of formal property rights and financial instruments is less widespread.

State Formation on China's Southern Frontier: Vietnam As a Shadow
State formation on China’s southern frontier: Vietnam as a shadow empire and hegemon Tuong Vu1 Introduction State formation in the territory called “Vietnam” today followed an imperial pattern, namely a process of conquests and annexations typical of an empire. Emerging out of “Chinese” rule in the tenth century, the “Vietnamese” expanded their territory hundreds of miles north and west and a thousand miles south to annex areas populated by Nùng, Thái, Mường, Chàm, Khmer, and others.2 At its peak in the early nineteenth century, the frontier of the Nguyễn empire encompassed much of today’s Cambodia and Laos. This imperial pattern was the basis on which the French built their Indochinese colony and the Vietnamese communist state built its modern hegemony. An account of Vietnam as an empire and hegemon challenges the nationalist historiography which emerged in colonized Vietnam a century ago and which remains influential today.3 In this historiography, Vietnam is essentialized as home to an ancient and unified nation with an indomitable spirit, while China is imagined as a big bully bent on but never successful in subjugating that spirit. Not too long ago, many prominent scholars were still preoccupied with the question of how the Vietnamese were able to maintain their identity and independence throughout their 2000-year recorded history in the shadow of its giant northern neighbor.4 The threat of assimilation and annexation by “China” is often portrayed as the paramount existential problem confronting all “Vietnamese” throughout their history who have yearned to preserve their independence even while adapting to “Chinese” culture and worldview.

Majapahit Empire Srivijaya Empire
CLASS SET CLASS SET CLASS SET Majapahit Empire The Hindu-Buddhist Majapahit Empire ruled from the 13th to the 16th centuries. At its height, the empire contained much of modern-day Indonesia, as well as some territory on the Southeast Asian mainland. Information on the Majapahit Empire is scarce and comes primarily from inscriptions on Javanese buildings and Chinese records. The first Majapahit king, Vijaya, took the throne in 1292, ruling from the capital, also named Majapahit, on the Brantas River on the island of East Java. For the next 200 years, the same family maintained control of the empire. The Majapahit Empire had a period of rapid expansion in the 14th century, conquering Bali in 1343 and maintaining vassal states in Sumatra, Kalimantan, and the Malay Peninsula. However, during the 15th century, a series of rebellions, civil wars, and intrafamily rivalries weakened the ruling family's power. As a result, Majapahit influence declined sharply, and the region became dominated under the sultanate of Malacca, which divided Indonesia and Malaysia. The culture of the Majapahit Empire was strongly influenced by a Hindu-Buddhist religious tradition. The Majapahits worshipped the Hindu gods Shiva and Vishnu but were also influenced by Buddhism, so they fused the two belief systems in the name they called their king: Shiva-Buddha. Religious art was fostered under the Majapahits, including elaborate temples and religious statuary. Other art forms of the period included painting and wood carving. The Majapahit culture reached its height—considered the golden age of the Majapahit—during the reign of King Hayam Wuruk, also known as King Rajasanagana, who ruled from 1350 to 1389.
