  • Party Development and Democratic Change in Post-communist Europe

    Paula Gilbert Lewis, Paul Lewis et al.•BOOK•Party Development and Democratic…•2024

    This work surveys processes of party development in the context of the ten years of democratic change in post-communist eastern Europe. It examines the capacity of the former ruling parties to attract contemporary voters and their role in contributing to the consolidation of the new democratic regimes

  • Challenging (mis)understandings of labour productivity for levelling-up: A broader research agenda for regional development

    Open Access•David Hearne, Paul Lewis•ARTICLE•Contemporary Social Science•2024•References: 7

    Policy work typically conflates measures of real and nominal labour productivity, using them interchangeably, often leading to misdiagnoses of the causes of regional disparities, with potentially flawed policy as a response. The Levelling Up White Paper is no exception, reflecting a fundamental misunderstanding of what is being measured and why it matters. This article makes two contributions to the literature on this point. First, it shows theor…

  • Constitutional artisans: James Buchanan and Vincent Ostrom on artifactual man, the constitutional attitude, and the political economy of constitutional design

    Open Access•Paul Lewis, Elizabeth A Morrow et al.•ARTICLE•Constitutional Political Economy•2024•Cited by: 1•References: 13

    This paper examines the relationship between the work of James Buchanan and Vincent Ostrom. It adds to existing work by providing a comprehensive analysis of Buchanan’s and Ostrom’s changing views about how the ‘logical foundations of constitutional democracy’ should be conceptualised. The paper traces how in the 1960s and 1970s Ostrom took inspiration from the rational choice analysis of constitutional democracy in Buchanan and Tullock’s The Cal…

  • A neglected topos in behavioural normative economics: The opportunity and process aspect of freedom

    Open Access•Malte Dold, Paul Lewis•ARTICLE•Behavioural Public Policy•2023•Cited by: 3•References: 5

    Robert Sugden has advanced various critiques of behavioural welfare economics, offering the notion of opportunity as an alternative. We agree with much of Sugden's critique but argue that his approach would benefit from a broadening of the informational base beyond opportunities to include people's concern for decision processes. We follow Amartya Sen in arguing that the process through which choices are made ( process freedom ) is something indi…

  • The Hand Behind the Invisible Hand: Reflections on a Recurring Theme in Classical Liberal Political Economy

    Open Access•Paul Lewis•ARTICLE•Contributions to Political Economy•2023•Cited by: 1•References: 5

    This article is a review essay of Karl Mittermaier’s ‘The Hand Behind the Invisible Hand’, first written as a PhD thesis that was submitted in 1987 and finally published in 2020. The essay examines the main question upon which Mittermaier focuses, namely, whether the institutional framework required for spontaneous market order to arise itself also arises spontaneously, via an invisible hand process, or whether it must instead be deliberately cre…

  • The Principles of a Liberal Social Order 1

    Paul Lewis•CHAPTER•Essays on Liberalism and the…•2022

    Liberalism and democracy, although compatible, are not the same. The first is concerned with the extent of governmental power, the second with who holds this power. The difference is best seen if we consider their opposites: the opposite of liberalism is totalitarianism, while the opposite of democracy is authoritarianism. Liberalism thus derives from the discovery of a self-generating or spontaneous order in social affairs, an order which made i…

  • Contesting neoliberalism: Mapping the terrain of social conflict

    This article explores the terrain of social conflict as it developed across advanced capitalist democracies throughout the 'age of austerity' that followed the global economic crisis. It shows how a (broadly defined) working class mobilised in different ways in different capitalist contexts, contesting the institutional forms (and the crises that emerged from them) which constitute each particular model of capitalism. Considered this way, we are …

  • A Socio-political Overview of Post-socialist Southeastern Europe Today

    Open Access•Sabrina Petra Ramet, Boris Divjak et al.•ARTICLE•Insight Turkey•2020

    According to Freedom House, those southeast European states which have joined the European Union are "free" while the rest are "partly free. " For ordinary citizens, the most important issues are corruption, unemployment, and poverty. There is an approximate correlation between Freedom House's assessments of democratic attainment and local perceptions of corruption: the more corrupt the country, the less democratic it is likely to be. The media a…

  • In gun we trust? A homily

    Open Access•Paula Gilbert Lewis, Paul Lewis•ARTICLE•Review & Expositor•2020

    Exegetically and homiletically, I offer the possibility that gun violence in US society represents God’s judgment upon our culture’s love for the gun. Talk of judgment may sound foreboding, but properly understood, it may be what the Exodus reading depicts. Current events involving multiple mass shootings in schools, churches, and public spaces may be indicative of the judgment of God on succeeding, innocent generations for the sins of our ancest…

    Open Access•David Bailey, Nikolai Huke et al.•ARTICLE•Social Policy and Society•2020•Cited by: 3•References: 9

    This article maps important trends that mark a new stage in neoliberal capitalism since 2008, with a focus on class struggle and resistance in the advanced industrial democracies. New forms of collective action have arisen in response to austerity which has been imposed, in different forms, across most of the advanced industrial democracies, in a context in which established solidaristic institutions – trade unions, social democratic parties, wel…

  • Archaeology in the home: Neoclassical ceramics for new audiences in mid-nineteenth-century Britain

    Open Access•Paul Lewis•ARTICLE•Bulletin of the Institute of…•2020•References: 3

    For audiences not familiar with antiquity, the shattering of the Portland Vase at the British Museum in 1845 raised awareness of a classical past which was claimed by many European nations as their cultural heritage. This article explores how the British ceramics industry quickly exploited a ready market, prompted by such interest. A new genre of wares was produced industrially, mainly in Stoke-on-Trent until the 1870s, although manufacture conti…

    Paul Lewis, Fei Peng et al.•ARTICLE•New Political Economy•2017•Cited by: 2•References: 24

    The structure of ‘post-industrial’ economies is widely held to be problematic for welfare capitalism, because of inherent limits to productivity growth in services compared to manufacturing. The so-called post-industrial trilemma is suggested to allow only two of relative earnings equality, high levels of employment and fiscal balance, and has resulted in the widespread policy belief that greater earnings inequality and welfare state retrenchment…

  • Metaphor and Critical Realism

    Paul Lewis, P A Lewis•ARTICLE•Review of Social Economy•1996•Cited by: 17•References: 5

    Advocates of critical realism often refer to the importance of “the logic of analogy and metaphor’ for the development of scientific theories. However, critical realists have failed to provide a detailed account of the part that metaphor plays in scientific theorizing. It is argued that such an account reveals that metaphor is integral to science, as understood by critical realists, serving both to provide suggestions of scientific models and a t…

  • Agency, Structure and Causality in Political Science: A Comment on Sibeon

    Open Access•Paul Lewis, Paul A Lewis•ARTICLE•Politics•2002•Cited by: 12•References: 7

    Researchers in political science are devoting increasing attention to the ontological commitments of their theories – that is, to what those theories presuppose about the nature of the political world. This article focuses on a recent contribution to this ‘ontological turn’ in political science ( Sibeon, 1999 ). Tensions are identified in Sibeon's account of the causal interplay between agency and social structure. It is argued that these tension…

    We address the challenge of attempting to advance a strong and consistently subjectivist view of economic agency without simultaneously undermining the possibility of providing a coherent account of social institutions and socio-economic order. The argument is presented as a case study and development of the ideas of Ludwig Lachmann, a prominent and self-confessed 'radical subjectivist' member of the modern Austrian School, who was both aware of …

  • Structure, agency and causality in post-revival Austrian economics: Tensions and Resolutions

    This paper aims to illustrate the benefits that accrue from critical realism's sustained, explicit reflection about ontological issues. The paper pursues this aim by examining the work of radical subjectivist Austrian economists as it has developed since the post-1974 revival in the fortunes of the Austrian school, focusing in particular on their account of the generation of socio-economic order in decentralized market economies. Ambiguities and …

Lachmann's account of how social institutions facilitate intentional human agency in the face of uncertainty contains significant ambiguities and tensions, stemming from his reluctance to acknowledge t…

    This article identifies the sources on which Friedrich Hayek drew in order to develop his understanding of the notion of emergence. It is widely acknowledged that the notion of emergence plays a significant role in Hayek's analyses of both the mind and the market. In Hayek's account, the key capacities of the human mind—such as its capacity to enable people to perceive the world around them and to form plans about how to act—are emergent properti…

  • Hayek, Social Theory, and the Contrastive Explanation of Socio-Economic Order

    Paul Lewis•ARTICLE•Critical Review•2013•Cited by: 3•References: 24

    Hayek's later work on the possibility of socio-economic order in decentralized market economies is an exercise in contrastive causal explanation as conceptualized by realist social theorists and philosophers. This interpretation of Hayek's work lends support to the view that Hayek's post-1960 writings can be thought of as an example of comparative institutional analysis. It also provides a means of reinforcing Hayek's own efforts to establish the…

    The discipline of economics can benefit from a more explicit, systematic, and sustained concern with ontology; that is, with the philosophical analysis of the nature of the social world. Contrary to the argument advanced in these pages by Gerry Steele (2005), critical-realist ontological analysis encourages fruitful economic research in a number of ways: by helping to identify research methods suitable for analyzing economic issues; by promoting …

    This paper assesses the policy consensus that exists amongst political parties in the UK in their shared ambition to eradicate child poverty by 2020. Three major pillars of policy - work intensification, re-distribution and skill upgrading - are challenged in terms of their likely success in reducing child poverty. In particular, the assumption that upgrading skills will raise earnings is challenged by examining the changing patterns of work in a…
