Union Affiliation and Civic Engagement: Teachers in Bogotá, Colombia
Do labor unions still motivate their members to participate in politics, or have social and economic changes undermined their political importance? This question is important to revisit, as globalization and economic reform have weakened many popular sector organizations in Latin America, reducing some to mere patronage machines. This article examines the case of the teachers' union in Bogotá, Colombia to assess whether and how labor unions are a…

Democratization, Education Reform, and the Mexican Teachers’ Union
This study examines the effect of democratization on a key education reform across three Mexican states. Previous scholarship has found a positive effect of electoral competition on social spending, as leaders seek to improve their reelection prospects by delivering services to voters. However, the evidence presented here indicates that more money has not meant better educational outcomes in Mexico. Rather, new and vulnerable elected leaders are …

Electoral Competition, Globalization, and Subnational Education Spending in Mexico, 1999–2004
This article examines the determinants of primary education spending among 29 Mexican states from 1999 to 2004. There is wide variation in spending despite expectations of policy convergence due to market forces associated with globalization, and in spite of the unique potential of education spending to complement economic strategies in achieving equitable growth. This study exploits significant advantages of subnational analysis in exploring pol…
Second Homes in The Norwegian Mountains: Cultural and Institutional Contexts for Continuing Development
One of the most significant and far-reaching contemporary changes in land use in many parts of the industrialised world is amenity-driven. In North America, and in Europe, and in other areas too, values such as scenery, recreation and privacy are playing increasingly large roles in shaping rural land markets. In many areas farming or forestry have been replaced by single-family residences on large tracts of land, second homes, private hunting pre…
