Buying influence? The international diplomacy behind donor financing of the World Bank’s International Development Association by Xu, J

“…Finally, the research examines whether a hegemon violating the ‘fairness’ principle by shirking obligations but pursuing undue influence will face secondary states willing to take ‘exit/voice’ measures to restore an implicit contribution-to-influence equity line; and whether such countermeasures would be postponed if secondary states are structurally dependent upon the hegemon and/or lack viable outside options. …”

Connecting Local Economic Decline to the Politics of Geographic Discontent: The Missing Link of Perceptions by Green, J, Jennings, W, McKay, L, Stoker, G

“…Using original survey questions in the British Election Study, we theorise five models to explain who is likely to perceive local economic decline, and why. Using linked objective data, we analyse the relationship of perceptions to existing economic indicators, finding correspondence but also substantial and systematic variation driven by partisanship and heuristics, such as declining personal circumstances. …”
