Derogations, democratic backsliding, and international human rights during the Covid-19 pandemic
Historical Redlining and Covid-19 Outcomes in Atlanta, Georgia
How to Interpret Statistical Models Using marginaleffects for R and Python
The parameters of a statistical model can sometimes be difficult to interpret substantively, especially when that model includes nonlinear components, interactions, or transformations. Analysts who fit such complex models often seek to transform raw parameter estimates into quantities that are easier for domain experts and stakeholders to understand. This article presents a simple conceptual framework to describe a vast array of such quantities o…
Pandemic Pass? Treaty Derogations and Human Rights Practices During Covid-19
This research note asks whether states issuing pandemic-era human rights treaty derogations implemented emergency provisions as intended or used them to abuse human rights during a time of crisis. In an effort to combat the COVID-19 pandemic, many countries declared states of emergency and derogated (temporarily suspended) from their international human rights treaty obligations. Using data from the Varieties of Democracy PanDem dataset and the O…
NGO repression as a predictor of worsening human rights abuses
An increasing number of countries have recently cracked down on non-governmental organizations (NGOs). Much of this crackdown is sanctioned by law and represents a bureaucratic form of repression that could indicate more severe human rights abuses in the future. This is especially the case for democracies, which, unlike autocracies, may not aggressively attack civic space. We explore whether crackdowns on NGOs predict broader human rights repress…
Who Cares about Crackdowns? Exploring the Role of Trust in Individual Philanthropy
The phenomenon of closing civic space has adversely impacted international non‐governmental organization (INGO) funding. We argue that individual private donors can be important in sustaining the operations of INGOs working in repressive contexts. Individual donors do not use the same performance‐based metrics as official aid donors. Rather, trust can be an important component of individual donor support for nonprofits working towards difficult g…
The Death of Idealism
Taking control of regulations
Liberal institutionalism
Liberal institutionalism presumes that domestic and international institutions play central roles in facilitating cooperation and peace between states. Liberal institutionalism presented as a corrective to conventional international relations theory, which held that powerful states dominate world politics. This chapter explains how the theoretical approach has developed in response to the conceptual, and the real, worlds. It explores major critiq…
From the Trenches
Amid the academic and policy critiques of the United States’ 15-year push to eliminate human trafficking, the perspective of the nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) working with anti-trafficking advocacy and services has been largely ignored. This article presents the results of a global survey of nearly 500 anti-trafficking NGOs in working in 133 countries, and is the first NGO-focused survey of its kind. Based on the results of the survey, we …
Internal, Interactive, and Institutional Factors
Scholars and practitioners agree that international nongovernmental organizations (INGOs) have become important actors in international relations and policymaking. But an understanding of INGOs’ impact requires a step back, analyzing how and why they behave as they do. We develop a framework that sorts and links relevant factors into three interlocking layers: (1) internal traits of an INGO, (2) interactions between an INGO and other actors, and …
Nonprofit Collaboration and the Resurrection of Market Failure
Collaboration and its promotion by funders continue to accelerate. Although research has identified significant transaction costs associated with collaboration, little empirical work has examined the broader, societal-level economic outcomes of a resource-sharing environment. Does an environment that encourages collaboration shift our focus toward certain types of social objectives and away from others? This paper uses agent-based Monte Carlo sim…
