Market-preserving federalism and the de facto commerce clause
The text of the US Constitution’s Commerce Clause (Article I) has remained unaltered since 1789. Literally, it gives Congress “Power to [...] regulate Commerce [...] among the several States[.]” But the de facto Commerce Clause has evolved over time. Federal powers with respect to both interstate and intrastate commerce (and relative to the powers retained by the states) have been tied to changing Supreme Court interpretations of the tersely word…
Public participation and constitutional compliance
Many constitutions are ratified by referendum, and public participation in earlier stages of constitution‐making is increasingly common. Participation may increase the perceived legitimacy of a constitution and citizens' knowledge about it. If this is true, one expects participation to lead to greater constitutional compliance. We explore this hypothesis using data on public participation in constitution‐making and compliance. Employing matching …

Medieval Constitution of Liberty
Does rigidity matter? Constitutional entrenchment and growth

Crisis Negotiations
Crisis Negotiations: Managing Critical Incidents and Hostage Situations in Law Enforcement and Corrections, the sixth edition, is an invaluable resource for mitigating, managing, or responding to high risk negotiation incidents. This revision includes the current research on negotiating high-risk incidents in the classroom and the field. It includes an applied analysis of the value of psychopathology to high-risk perpetrators. It refines the "emp…

Medieval representative assemblies
The Carolingians, the Church, and the medieval constitution
In the eighth century, Charles Martel confiscated Church property to make distributions of benefices and precaria to his vassals. This project was an investment in state capacity and secularizations of Church property were continued under Charles' son Pippin III. Many scholars have characterized this development as the expansion of Carolingian (monarchical) authority at the expense of the Church and to the benefit of the lay nobility. I argue tha…

Sigma Convergence versus Beta Convergence
In this paper, we outline (i) why σ‐convergence may not accompany β‐convergence, (ii) discuss evidence of β‐convergence in the United States, and (iii) use U.S. county‐level data containing over 3,000 cross‐sectional observations to demonstrate that σ‐convergence cannot be detected at the county level across the United States, or within the large majority of the individual U.S. states considered separately. Indeed, in many cases statistically sig…
Growth and Convergence across the United States
We use U.S. county data (3,058 observations) and 41 conditioning variables to study growth and convergence. Using ordinary least squares (OLS) and three-stage least squares with instrumental variables (3SLS-IV), we report on the full sample and metro, nonmetro, and and regional samples: (1) OLS yields convergence rates around 2%; 3SLS yields 6%–8%; (2) convergence rates vary (for example, the Southern rate is 2.5 times the Northeastern rate); (3)…
