The Political Economy of Democratic Transitions
Stephan Haggard , and Robert R. Kaufman Manufacturer: Princeton University Press ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback Similar Items:
ASIN: 0691027757 |
Book Description
In the last two decades, there has been a widespread movement from authoritarian to democratic rule among developing countries, often occurring against a backdrop of severe economic crises and the adoption of market-oriented reforms. The coincidence of these events raises long-standing questions about the relationship between economic and political change. In this book, Stephan Haggard and Robert Kaufman explore this relationship, addressing a variety of questions: What role have economic crises played in the current wave of political liberalization and democratization? Can new democracies manage the daunting political challenges posed by economic reform? Under what economic and institutional conditions is democracy most likely to be consolidated? Drawing on contemporary political economy and the experiences of twelve Latin American and Asian countries, they develop a new approach to understanding democratic transitions.
Haggard and Kaufman first analyze the relationship between economic crisis and authoritarian withdrawal and then examine how the economic and institutional legacies of authoritarian rule affect the capacity of new democratic governments to initiate and sustain economic policy reform. Finally, the authors analyze the consolidation of political and economic reform over the long run. Throughout, they emphasize the relationship between economic conditions, the interests and power of contending social groups, and the mediating role of representative institutions, particularly political parties.

The Impact of FDI on Economic Growth: An Analysis for the Transition Countries of Central and Eastern Europe (Contributions to Economics)
Marco Neuhaus Manufacturer: Physica-Verlag Heidelberg ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 3790817341 |
Book Description
This book provides a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between FDI and economic growth with special attention to the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. Within a new semi-endogenous growth model, the book illustrates the impact of FDI on economic growth for every stage of development of a country. Developing countries experience both strong capital accumulation and technology transfer through FDI, whereas highly developed countries mainly benefit from FDI as a vehicle of global technology diffusion. Departing from this universal model, the book then investigates the impact of FDI on economic growth for the transition countries of Central and Eastern Europe. With the help of modern panel data econometrics it carries out the strongly awaited empirical evidence of a growth enhancing effect of FDI in the transition countries, and it explains for each country the actual growth contributions induced by FDI.

Modernism, 1910-1945: Image to Apocalypse (Transitions)
Jane Goldman Manufacturer: Palgrave Macmillan ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 0333696212 |
Book Description
Modernism, 1910-1945 explores and celebrates the rise and development of modernist and avant-garde literatures and theories of this particular period, from Imagism to the Apocalypse movement. Jane Goldman charts transitions in writing, reading, performing and publishing practices, and in international groupings and regroupings of writers and artists, and engages with, as well as unsettles, the retrospective and homogenizing term Modernism that labels the era. Goldman introduces students to the work of many canonical high modernist writers, such as Ezra Pound, T.S. Eliot and Virginia Woolf, as well as to the work of other important modernist figures, such as Nathanael West, Kurt Schwitters and the Harlem Renaissance poets.
