Introduction: The rise of formal institutions in the Asia-Pacific region through competitive regime complexity
The emergence of formal regional regimes characterized by precision and non-delegation signifies a major shift in the Asia-Pacific region. This special issue addresses the previously unexamined politics of institutional change towards formalization by analysing the policy realms of emergency liquidity provision, development aid, clean air, and labour immigration. To guide our research, this introductory article presents a conceptual framework tha…
Ideas for macroeconomic surveillance: A comparative text analysis of country reports by global and regional financial organizations
Institutional proliferation in the global financial order raises concerns about a failure of coordination between global and regional organizations and the resulting confusion and conflict. One area of concern is macroeconomic surveillance, which is crucial for the detection of financial crises as a task subject to institutional overlaps. The existing literature does not provide systematic evidence on the extent and determinants of such coordinat…
The punitive impact of radical right populism on foreign aid: Immigration Pressure and Mainstream Partnership
This study investigates populist radical right (PRR) influence on aid amid widespread concerns about a potential connection between its rise and the reduction of aid allocation. Previous studies failed to address these concerns owing to the disuse of immigrant inflows as an intervening variable and a bilateral framework capable of investigating properties in donor and recipient countries. By analyzing panel data on Western European parliamentary …
The politics of coordination and miscoordination in the post-Cold War United States-Japan alliance: From a Japanese perspective
Alliance coordination involves a multiplicity of equilibria, the resolution of which depends on institutions and knowledge known as focal-point effects. Since the end of the Cold War, the alliance has expanded its missions despite difficult coordination problems by taking advantage of multiple focal factors. Although common threat perceptions have con-tinued to serve as a central focal factor, other factors, such as shared democratic values and i…
The Rationality of Economic Voting Revisited
One aspect of rationality involves the prospective or retrospective outlook of voters; another concerns voters' knowledge of feasibility constraints. Rationality is usually taken to mean that agents are both forward-looking and aware of constraints, but it is not possible to associate voter rationality with any particular behavioral regularity unless objectives and constraints are specified. We examine voter rationality using post-World War II U.…

Partisan Dealignment and the Dynamics of Independence in the American Electorate, 1953–88
Since the 1950s, the dominant pattern of partisan change in the American electorate has involved movements between party identification and independence rather than direct or indirect shifts between parties. This article employs switching regression analyses to investigate the long-term evolution and short-term dynamics of independence between 1953 and 1988. The analyses reveal that a new ‘independence regime’ developed rapidly in the mid-1960s, …
Aggregate Vote Functions for the U.S. Presidency, Senate, and House
In this paper, we estimate vote functions for presidential, House, and Senate elections in the United States using a seemingly unrelated regressions technique adapted to the case of unequal numbers of observations across equations. Our method facilitates rigorous comparisons of voting behavior across election types and provides efficiency gains over ordinary least squares. Our analysis focuses on comparisons across vote functions. We find that: (…
Domestic political determinants of inflation
Political economists have advanced a variety of diverse and competing hypotheses to explain the domestic political dimension of inflation. With few exceptions, however, these hypotheses have been tested individually without regard to competing explanations. This study uses pooled time‐series data on fifteen industrial democracies to examine five prominent political hypotheses that purport to explain either political pressures that cause inflation…
Political Business Cycles in the Public Mind
Numerous studies have sought to discover political business cycles in macroeconomic variables. Although voters' subjective economic expectations have been shown to influence their electoral decisions, no existing research has attempted to uncover cyclical patterns in citizens' economic expectations. Using survey data, I seek to determine whether expectations shift to benefit the incumbent president's electoral interest. The analyses show that the…

The Rationality of Economic Voting and the Macroeconomic Regime
Since voter rationality plays a major role in theories of political economics, it is important for political analysts to investigate the extent of voter sophistication. A conventional strategy for addressing this question is to determine what decision rule voters appear to use by estimating rival political support models that embody varying assumptions about voter rationality. However, under some circumstances, such a strategy may be incapable of…
