  • Romanian Political Science Review Vol. XXI, No. 1 2021
    Romanian Political Science Review vol. XXI, no. 1 2021 The end of the Cold War, and the extinction of communism both as an ideology and a practice of government, not only have made possible an unparalleled experiment in building a democratic order in Central and Eastern Europe, but have opened up a most extraordinary intellectual opportunity: to understand, compare and eventually appraise what had previously been neither understandable nor comparable. Studia Politica. Romanian Political Science Review was established in the realization that the problems and concerns of both new and old democracies are beginning to converge. The journal fosters the work of the first generations of Romanian political scientists permeated by a sense of critical engagement with European and American intellectual and political traditions that inspired and explained the modern notions of democracy, pluralism, political liberty, individual freedom, and civil rights. Believing that ideas do matter, the Editors share a common commitment as intellectuals and scholars to try to shed light on the major political problems facing Romania, a country that has recently undergone unprecedented political and social changes. They think of Studia Politica. Romanian Political Science Review as a challenge and a mandate to be involved in scholarly issues of fundamental importance, related not only to the democratization of Romanian polity and politics, to the “great transformation” that is taking place in Central and Eastern Europe, but also to the make-over of the assumptions and prospects of their discipline. They hope to be joined in by those scholars in other countries who feel that the demise of communism calls for a new political science able to reassess the very foundations of democratic ideals and procedures.

  • Central Banks Or Single Financial Authorities? Economics, Politics and Law
    PRELIMINARY DRAFT : DECEMBER, 16, 2003 CENTRAL BANKS OR SINGLE FINANCIAL AUTHORITIES? ECONOMICS, POLITICS AND LAW Donato Masciandaro¨ ABSTRACT The objective of this work is to offer a political delegation approach for the analysis of the financial supervision architectures. Focusing on the key issue in the debate on financial supervision structure – single authority versus multi-authorities model – the paper claims that the optimal degree of concentration in the financial supervision regime cannot be defined a priori; rather it is an expected variable, calculated by the policymakers that maintains or reform the financial architecture. Therefore the adopted approach is to consider the supervisory structure with one or more authorities as an endogenous variable, determined in turn by the dynamics of other structural variables, economic and institutional, that can explain the political delegation process. In order to construct this endogenous variable, it is first introduced a Financial Authorities’ Concentration Index (FAC Index). The comparative analysis of 69 countries, based on this indicator, showed that an increase in the degree of concentration was evident in the developed countries, and particularly in the European Union. Then, in order to consider the nature of the institutions involved in the control responsibilities – i.e. what role the central bank plays - it is introduced an index of the central bank's involvement in financial supervision, the Central Bank as Financial Authority Index (CBFA Index). Each national regime can be identified with the two above characteristics. Two the most frequent models: countries with a high concentration of powers with low central bank involvement (Single Financial Authority Regime); countries with a low concentration of powers with high central bank involvement (Central Bank Dominated Multiple Supervisors Regime).
