    University of California, San Diego Fall Quarter, 2013 POLI 138D: How to Steal an Election Tuesdays/Thursdays 11:00 – 12:20 Robinson Building Complex (IRPS) 3202 Professor Clark Gibson Office: Social Science Building 386 Telephone: 822-5140 E-Mail: [email protected] Office Hours: Monday 8:30-9:30 a.m. Other times to meet can be arranged upon request. Overview: This course seeks to introduce students to the politics of electoral fraud in the contemporary world. It covers topics such as the logic of elections in authoritarian states, vote buying, electoral violence, institutional design and rigging, and election monitoring. The Nicaraguan dictator Anastasio Somoza once said to his electoral opponent who claimed to have defeated him at the polls: ‘‘You may have won the voting, but I won the counting.’’ Course Requirements and Grading: The course will have a midterm (30%), final (30%), reading quizzes (30%), and in-class discussion (10%) - Exams will be comprised mainly of short answers. - Reading Quizzes occur frequently. Read the assignment before the day on which they are to be discussed. You may drop two quizzes without reason – use this power judiciously. There are no make-up quizzes. - Discussion is graded on your command of the reading material and your presentation of ideas. Nota Bene: This course focuses heavily on in-class activities. If you prefer courses which require less attendance and allow you to “catch up” with the readings, do not take this course.

  • Electoral Fraud and the Erosion of Democratic Gains in Kenya1
    Electoral Fraud and the Erosion of Democratic Gains in Kenya1 James D. Long [email protected] Department of Political Science & Center for the Study of African Political Economy University of California, San Diego Paper prepared for the Working Group in African Political Economy (WGAPE) meeting, April 30-May 1, Pomona College ** This paper is a draft; please do not cite without permission** 1 This paper is a draft of Chapter Six of my dissertation, ―Voting, Fraud, and Violence: the Problem of Elections in Emerging Democracies,‖ Department of Political Science, University of California, San Diego. I would like to thank Nic Cheeseman, Danielle Jung, Karuti Kanyinga, Adrienne LeBas, and David Ndii for comments on previous versions of this chapter. I would also like to thank Clark Gibson, Ken Flottman, Norbert Aluku, and Peter Oriare for their help in the management of the exit poll, and the many Kenyan enumerators from Strategic Research for their excellent assistance in the implementation of the poll. All errors remain with the author. Despite voters‘ attempts to use elections as mechanisms of accountability, weak institutional environments in emerging democracies do not always succeed at providing its supply. Indeed, a number of institutional deficiencies affect the lives of citizens in developing countries, from poor rule of law and ineffective courts to corrupt police and security forces. As we have seen in previous chapters, in equilibrium democratic elections should allow citizens to improve government performance by allowing them to sanction errant leaders and vote for politicians that promise to enact reforms. In this chapter, I examine a specific institutional failure with respect to Kenya‘s 2007 election that severely vitiated the accountability mechanism elections are designed to promote.

  • Chapter 1 Explaining Deforestation: the Role of Local Institutions
    Chapter 1 Explaining Deforestation: The Role of Local Institutions Clark Gibson, Margaret A. McKean, and Elinor Ostrom Introduction governments, citizens, and scientists are increasingly concerned about the role of forests in global environmental change. Evidence is mounting from multiple studies that humans at an aggregate level are exploiting forests at unsustain- able rates in tropical regions.1 While some deforestation can be attributed to rational and sustainable transfers of land to agricultural and other valuable uses, unplanned deforestation can generate significant negative externalities: loss of biodiversity, ele- vated risk of erosion, floods and lowered water tables, and increased release of carbon into the atmosphere associated with global climate change. More importantly, defor- estation can decrease the welfare of forest users by eliminating habitat for game spe- cies, altering local climates and watersheds, and destroying critical stocks of fuel, fodder, food, and building materials. While aggregate levels of deforestation are relatively well-known, less agreement exists among forest managers, policymakers, and scholars about the under- lying and proximate causes of these increases.2 The most frequently mentioned causes of deforestation include: • population growth (Rudel, 1994); • population density (Burgess, 1992); • affluence (Ehrlich and Ehrlich, 1991; Rudel, 1994); • technology (Ehrlich and Ehrlich, 1991); • national debt (Kahn and McDonald, 1994); • commercial logging (Capistrano, 1994); • government policy (Repetto and Gillis, 1988; World Bank, 1992); 1 In contrast, the area and volume of forest resources are growing in most temperate regions. 2 For a brief overview of the competing explanations given for deforestation see Turner (1995).

Long, and Arman Rezaee Abstract: Elections provide a key potential means of creating state "legitimacy." One mechanism is by improving citizens’ attitudes toward government and so increasing their willingness to comply with rules and regulations. We investigate whether election fairness affects attitudes towards government in a fragile state. We find that a randomly assigned fraud-reducing intervention in Afghan elections leads to both improvement in two indexes, one on attitudes toward government, and another on compliance. The results imply that reducing electoral fraud can be a practical and cost-effective method to stabilize governance in a fragile state. *We are indebted to many colleagues including Asim I.

  • A Political Concessions Model of Africa's Democratization Clark C
    Dictators with Empty Pockets: A Political Concessions Model of Africa’s Democratization Clark C. Gibson* Barak Hoffman Department of Political Science University of California, San Diego Paper prepared for the 2002 Annual Meetings of the American Political Science Association, Boston MA. Correspondence: Clark Gibson 9500 Gilman La Jolla CA 92093-0521 858.822.5140 [email protected] *Karen Ferree and Neal Beck kindly provided useful comments on this paper. 1 Abstract Dozens of African countries experienced political liberalization in the late 1980s and 1990s. One after another, undemocratic regimes on the continent began allowing the formation of opposition parties, a freer press, and multiparty elections. Despite such extraordinary, continent- wide shifts in the political landscape, analysts have had little success in accounting for this general change. In fact, existing research is contradictory. Some studies argue that economic wealth leads to political liberalization while others claim poverty has driven this change; some studies assert that foreign aid forced incumbents to open their regimes while others find evidence that aid delayed democratic reform. Further, no study has explained well the timing or extent of political liberalization across Africa. We argue that the key to explaining the political changes in Africa is the pressure exerted by patronage networks on rulers. We model how domestic and international shocks of the 1980s and 1990s influenced the choices of politicians who remain in power by supporting their patronage networks. Such factors forced leaders to make a series of political concessions to their opposition. We test the concessions model using ordered probit estimation and time series data for all sub-Saharan African countries.

Although some of the early development agencies are still operating and remain influential, the way they function has evolved and important new players have entered the field. This course provides an overview of contemporary debates in international development assistance with a selective review of the major actors—multilateral, bilateral, and nongovernmental. The course explores the political economy of donor-client country relationships, the key accountability challenges that have emerged as aid has evolved, and the link between accountability and aid effectiveness. Particular emphasis is given to recent development assistance approaches and mechanism that have attempted to bridge the accountability-effectiveness divide. The course closes with consideration of the possible future shape of development assistance. Course Objectives By the end of the course, participants will: 1. Understand the evolution and goals of international development assistance; 2. Be familiar with the main actors—both traditional and more recent--involved in providing development assistance; 3.
