摘要：Climate change mitigation and adaptation are among the policy areas covered by the European Union (EU) in trans-governmental cooperation with the neighboring countries. Although this cooperation is open to all European Neighborhood Policy countries and Russia, there is significant cross-country variance. This article maps the EU's climate networks in the neighborhood and, building on time-series cross-sectional data analysis, explains the cross-country differences. The study contributes to Eur...

摘要：Access to college is critical for social mobility in China. Using a detailed college admission database that includes essentially all four-year public universities from 2005 to 2013, we demonstrate that Chinese universities preallocate more admission seats to provinces that happen to fall under the leadership of their alumni. Moreover, we demonstrate that the identified admission favoritism constitutes a political exchange between public universities and their powerful alumni in the sense that...

摘要：It has long been hypothesized that democracy benefits the poor, yet solid empirical evidence for this assertion is scarce. This article provides new global evidence regarding the poverty-reduction effect of democracy, which we refer to as the Sen Hypothesis. A difference-in-differences estimation using cross-national panel data of over 100 countries from 1995 to 2015 shows that democracy reduces poverty, although the size of the effect varies by the poverty line chosen. The results also show t...

摘要：This article investigates the relationship between court performance and citizen attitudes toward corruption. We develop a framework inspired by signaling theory that focuses on the need for institutional actors to send credible signals about their commitment against corruption if they seek to engage citizens. We suggest two channels that link court signals to citizen attitudes, an institutional channel linking signals to trust in courts and attitudes about state-driven anti-corruption measure...
