Bücher der Reihe Elements in Political Economy

Explores the colliding trends of internal migration and nativism in developing countries. Looks at how subnational migration is associated with nativist politics, the effects of internal migration surges on public policy and how political decentralization strengthens subnational politicians' incentives to define and cater to nativists.

Economies reflect a moral and political choice, one we can make and remake. This Element makes progress toward building a new moral political economy by offering a theory of change and principles for institutional (re)design.

This Element analyses the value of effective state institutions before introducing democracy. To do so, it draws on an extensive global sample of about 180 countries, measured across 1789-2019 and leverage panel regressions, preparametric matching, and sequence analysis to test a number of observable implications.
