Has inflation targeting become less credible?: oil prices, global aggregate demand and inflation expectations during the global financial crisis
Following the onset of the global financial crisis (2008) we witness a strengthening of the correlation between crude oil prices and medium-term inflation expectations.

Financial constraints, institutions, and foreign ownership
We develop a model of cross-border acquisitions in which the foreign acquirer's ownership choice reflects a trade-off between easing the target's credit constraints and the costs of operating in an environment with weak institutions. Data on domestic and foreign acquisitions in emerging markets over the period 1990–2007 support the model predictions. The share of full foreign…

The last few decades witnessed a dramatic change in public opinion towards gay people. This paper uses a difference-in-difference empirical strategy to investigate the hypothesis that the AIDS epidemic and the ensuing endogenous political process led to this transformation.

Drawing an analogy to the role of immigration policy in processes of state formation, this article argues that the development of common asylum/immigration policies is indicative of the normative tensions implied in the EU's transition from a regulatory polity towards a political Union. Based on an analysis of key legislative texts from the emergence of common immigration…
