Do voters use information on candidates? Experimental evidence from a recent election
Through a survey experiment during the 2021 municipal elections of Rome, Italy, we evaluate the effects of a policy on political transparency that requires the online publication of information on candidates before the election. We find no effects on turnout and choice of councilors. However, treated subjects who invested more time browsing candidates’ profiles voted more for the incumbent mayor. These effects align with the limited engagement of…
Rights redistribution and Covid-19 lockdown policy
What is the tenet upon which the public policy of lockdown by fiat experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic is based on? The work approaches this question about the rationale of the mandatory shelter-in-place policy as an interpersonal exchange of rights, but where the exchange occurs coercively instead of voluntarily. It compares, in positive political economy terms, the normative principles of utilitarianism and Rawlsianism, and shows that lock…
Open Source Software Production, Spontaneous Input, and Organizational Learning
This work shows that the modular organization of voluntary open source software (OSS) production, whereby programmers supply effort of their accord, capitalizes more on division than on specialization of labor. This is so because voluntary OSS production is characterized by an organizational learning process that dominates the individual one. Organizational learning reveals production choices that would otherwise remain unknown, thereby increasin…
The State and Scope of the Economic History of Developing Regions
This paper examines the state and scope of the study of economic history of developing regions, underlining the importance of knowledge of history for economic development. While the quality of the existing research on developing countries is impressive, the proportion of published research focusing on these regions is low. The dominance of economic history research on the North American and Western European success stories suggests the need for …
The Organizational Approach of Capability Theory
Richard Langlois, Tony Yu & Paul Robertson (LYR) (2003) have assembled a collection of previously published papers that move beyond textbook production theory. This essay discusses work by Frank Knight and Hendrik Houthakker not reproduced in LYR in relation to the capability theory of economic organization. Knight identified the problem of organization as the search for and the coordination of different dispersed capabilities. Houthakker helps u…
Institutions as knowledge capital
This article revisits the socioeconomic theory of the Austrian School economist Ludwig M. Lachmann. By showing that the common claim that Lachmann’s idiosyncratic (i.e., eclectic and multidisciplinary) approach to economics entails nihilism is unfounded, it reaches the following conclusions. (1) Lachmann held a sophisticated institutional position vis-a`-vis economics that anticipated developments in contemporary new institutional economics. (2) …
