  • Inequality, information, and income tax policy preferences in Austria and Germany

    Open AccessCameron Ballard-Rosa, Ronald Rogowski et al.ARTICLEPolitical Science Research and…2025References: 33

    Inequality has increased over recent decades in many advanced industrial democracies, but taxes have rarely become more progressive. One possible explanation for the lack of a policy response is that, despite rising inequality, voters support higher taxes on incomes weakly, if at all. Using original representative surveys in Austria and Germany, we elicit voters’ preferences over the progressivity of income tax policy and examine whether exposing…

  • Rising Inequality As a Threat to the Liberal International Order

    Open AccessThomas M Flaherty, Thomas Flaherty et al.ARTICLEInternational Organization2021Cited by: 39References: 67

    The rise of top-heavy inequality—earnings concentration in a very thin layer of elites—calls into question our understanding of the distributional effects of the Liberal International Order. Far more people lose from globalization, and fewer gain, than traditional economic models suggest. We review three modern trade theories (neo-Heckscher-Ohlin-Stolper-Samuelson or H-O-S-S, new new trade theory, and economic geography) that each arrive at the c…

  • The Rise of Experimentation in Political Science

    Open AccessRonald RogowskiOTHEREmerging Trends in the Social and…2016

    Experimental research has expanded markedly in political science over the past 30 years: the number of experimental articles in the American Political Science Review has almost quintupled since the mid‐1980s. The main reason is intellectual: most scholars by now agree that random assignment of cases to “treatment” provides the most (perhaps the only) convincing evidence of causation. The second reason is technical advances that permit kinds of ex…

  • Rational Legitimacy: A Theory of Political Support

    Ronald RogowskiBOOKRational Legitimacy2015

    This book confronts one of the central questions of political science: how people choose to accept or not to accept particular governments. In contrast to the prevailing view that citizens' decisions about the legitimacy of their governments are strongly conditioned by political culture and socialization and are hence largely non-rational, Ronald Rogowski argues that such decisions may indeed be the product of rational choice. The book proceeds b…

  • Shooting (or Ignoring) the Messenger

    Open AccessRonald RogowskiARTICLEPolitical Studies Review2013Cited by: 10References: 13

    Political science produces highly policy-relevant research, but politicians ignore it in favor of their own (or their supporters’) biases. I give examples from such fields as anti-immigrant politics, political business cycles and the politics of redistribution. The sole area in which politicians do attend closely to scholarly research is where it assists their own efforts at electoral success (e.g. effect and duration of political advertising). B…

We once again express our thanks to the APSA: Presidents Brady and Pateman, the staff (especially Michael Brintnall and Polly Karpowicz), Council, and Publications Committee.

    We report here on the journal's operations during the year from July 1, 2008, to June 30, 2009. In doing so, we want first to express our thanks to the APSA: its staff, Council, and Publications Committee, both for good advice and for important material support. The impact of both is documented, albeit only partially, in the following article. The APSR Editorial Board and its Executive Committee have also been invaluable, and we have benefited pa…

  • Trade, Immigration, and Cross‐Border Investment

    Ronald RogowskiCHAPTERThe Oxford handbook of political…2009

    This article discusses the implications of four models related to trade, immigration, and cross-border investment. These four models are: Hecksher-Ohlin, Samuelson-Jones and Ricardo-Viner, neo-Ricardian, and Economies of Scale. The first three models assume constant returns to scale, but all models make the conventional assumption of diminishing marginal returns to any individual factor. The article discusses each model in detail, focusing on tra…

    This report was the first to be prepared by the UCLA-based team of co-editors that took over leadership of the Review in July 2007 from Lee Sigelman, who had edited it for the previous six years. Here we report on the journal's operations during the year from July 1, 2007, to June 30, 2008, including both decisions made during the early months by Lee, as he closed up shop, and those made by the new team.

  • Lower Prices: The Impact of Majoritarian Systems in Democracies Around the World

    Drew A Linzer, Ronald Rogowski et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Politics2008Cited by: 8References: 37

    Recent theoretical work has proposed that majoritarian electoral systems, by creating incentives for legislators to favor the interests of consumers over producers, should lead to more consumer-friendly and procompetitive regulatory policies and hence to lower real price levels. Empirical analysis confirming this effect has so far been confined to OECD democracies, but there are reasons to believe that, due to differences in state capacity and co…

  • Electoral Systems and Real Prices: Panel Evidence for the OECD Countries, 1970–2000

    Open AccessEric C C Chang, Mark Andreas Kayser et al.ARTICLEBritish Journal of Political…2008Cited by: 21References: 16

    In a recent article, Rogowski and Kayser introduced a claim to the political economy literature that majoritarian electoral systems: (a) systematically privilege consumers relative to producers and, consequently, (b) reduce real prices. The authors, modifying an established model of regulation, showed that, within a competitive political system, politicians favour those who provide only votes (consumers) over those who provide both money and vote…

  • Majoritarian Electoral Systems and Consumer Power: Price-Level Evidence from the OECD Countries

    Ronald Rogowski, Mark Andreas Kayser et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Political…2002Cited by: 97References: 8

    A straightforward extension of the standard Stigler-Peltzman model of regulation, coupled with a Taagepera- Shugart analysis of electoral-system effects, suggests: (a) that the greater seat-vote elasticities of majoritarian electoral systems will tilt policy in favor of consumers, while propor- tional systems should strengthen producers; and (b) that the pro-con- sumer bias of majoritarian systems should be manifested in systemati- cally lower pr…

  • Eckstein and the Study of Private Governments: An Appreciation, Critique, and Proposal

    Open AccessRonald RogowskiARTICLEComparative Political Studies1998References: 26

    Harry Eckstein's Theory of Stable Democracy briefly revolutionized thinking about authority structures in nongovernmental organizations but has left little lasting mark. Indeed, the theory failed as an account of stable democracy but, by emphasizing correctly the commonalities between public and private authority, it pointed the way to a general theory of authority in organizations. Such a theory is now emerging, chiefly from work on authority in…

    By virtually any measure, cross-border trade and investment have grown at extraordinary rates over the past thirty years. Representative trade statistics for the industrial economies and the newly industrializing countries (NICs) are presented by Milner and Keohane in the Introduction to this volume. Among the poorest states, as well (the forty-three countries that the World Bank classifies as “low-income,” with per capita GNP of $610 or less in …

  • The Political Economy of International Trade: Enduring Puzzles and an Agenda for Inquiry

    Open AccessJames E Alt, James Ε Alt et al.ARTICLEComparative Political Studies1996Cited by: 90References: 34

    A similar set of concepts has been central to the literatures on the formation of trade policy coalitions and the “new economics of institutions”: the political and economic consequences of the degree to which assets are specific to a particular economic activity. In this survey, the authors take the necessary first step of summarizing the main findings of these two literatures and then suggest ways in which the issue might be joined. In addition…
