Nudging attention to evidence resources in Latin America: What works
Many observers call for more efforts to integrate scientifically rigorous impact evaluations into policy streams, though government officials frequently self-report that they rarely utilize such evidence. Previous research has found that small “nudges” in communications content, style, or source can affect behavior in a wide variety of contexts. To test how nudges might impact bureaucrats’ willingness to investigate evidence resources, researcher…
Presidential threats and bureaucrats' support for democracy in Brazil
Bringing the Structure Back in: Limited Access Orders, "Extreme" ISI and Development
Structuralists highlighted politico-economic constraints on late development and advocated infant industry policies. In practice, highly distortionary implementation choices were near ubiquitous. Why did policymakers prefer this extreme policy? Employing North, Wallis & Weingast (2009), I argue politicians were constrained by a limited access order (LAO) to directly distribute production rights to powerful groups. “Extreme” ISI policies maximized…
When the Shepherd Rejoins the Flock: Returning to the Department after Serving as Chair
Reassuming the role of a “regular” faculty member after serving as department chair presents a common set of challenges that often are overlooked and underappreciated in the discipline. To provide former chairs with guideposts for navigating this pivotal moment in their career, we offer a few thoughts on what our experience suggests are the keys to a successful transition. Among the issues to consider are time and space to regroup, mining what yo…
Rethinking the Political Economy of Import Substitution Industrialization in Brazil: A Clientelist Model of Development Policymaking
Import substitution industrialization was the postwar development policy of choice in Latin America, and the diagnosis of its weaknesses heavily influenced subsequent policy recommendations. Yet few attempts have been made to test the predominant sectorally based explanation of ISI's failings against alternatives. This article develops a model of direct (clientelistic) linkages between politicians and their supporters and tests it against the sta…

Proffering Pork: How Party Leaders Build Party Reputations in Brazil
Despite its highly candidate‐centered electoral law, recent studies have shown that Brazilian party leaders are more powerful, and Brazilian parties are more unified, than alleged by long‐dominant scholarship. Examining post‐War and contemporary democracy in Brazil, governed by the same federal legislative electoral law, this article provides a controlled test of the role of leadership and electoral law in driving party unity. The combination of …
Parties as Programmatic Agents: A Test of Institutional Theory in Brazil
The received wisdom in the study of Brazilian parties holds that Brazilian electoral law precludes programmatic parties. Yet we have little comprehensive data on party behavior in Brazil, and the electoral law thesis of party weakness has never been directly tested. I test the theory by examining party behavior in two periods of democratic rule (1945–64 and 1989–2002) in which electoral law is constant. I examine several features of governing and…

discourse that effaces a "Portuguese glorious past," textually replacing it with a Mozambican past and present (225).Overall, The Golden Cage is important for its textual readings, and the excerpts from interviews with authors that it includes.However, it would have benefited from a more rigorous editing process, prior to publication
