The economics of deemed values
In 2001, New Zealand substantially modified its approach to implementation of the Quota Management System to make deemed values a central administrative tool. Catches in excess of a fisher’s annual catch entitlements (ACE) incur payments, called deemed values. Deemed values are an example of a price cap tool within a cap-and-trade regulatory system. The purpose of this paper is to develop four economic explanations for why deemed values may impro…
From California dreaming to California data: Challenging historic models for landfill CH4 emissions
Improved quantification of diverse CH4 sources at the urban scale is needed to guide local GHG mitigation strategies in the Anthropocene. Herein, we focus on landfill CH4 emissions in California, challenging the current IPCC methodology which focuses on a climate dependency for landfill CH4 generation (methanogenesis), but does not explicitly consider climate or soil dependencies for emissions. Relying on a comprehensive California landfill datab…
Human rights in the South Pacific: A comparative analysis
To date, no research has attempted to evaluate human rights in the Pacific region in comparative perspective. Employing commonly used cross-national measures of basic human rights, the author examines how well regimes in the region respect political and civil rights as well as the right to physical integrity. The results reveal that, as regards political and civil rights, the region appears to resemble parts of the developing world more than the …
Should We Really “Force Them to be Free?” An Empirical Examination of Peceny's Liberalizing Intervention Thesis
In his article, entitled “Forcing Them to be Free,” Peceny (1999) presents and empirically tests an argument that while most U.S. military interventions are not successful in bringing about democracy, those cases of intervention in which the U.S. also pushes for “free and fair elections” are likely to produce long-term democratic outcomes in target countries. Our research challenges Peceny's work in two ways. First, we replicate his analysis, fin…
Are Regimes in Diverse Societies More Repressive? a Crosstemporal, Crossnational Analysis
Are governments in highly diverse societies more likely to use political repression against their citizens? A notable dialogue occurred between Lord Acton and John Stuart Mill, with Mill arguing that government institutions in relatively homogeneous states are more likely to be free and effective, and thus less prone to violating individual rights. Conversely, Lord Acton argued that the presence of a diverse range of social groups in a polity nec…
Rethinking Models of Civil War Settlement
The current study is a replication and expansion of an earlier piece by Hartzell, Hoddie, and Rothchild (2001) exploring civil war settlement characteristics and stability. Their research focused on the importance of territorial autonomy provisions and the role of third party guarantors in predicting settlement success and stability. They employed a model that controlled for such conflict characteristics as international system structure, nature …
