Crisis at the Appellate Body: Towards More or Less Consent in WTO Adjudication?

The dialectical...

Framing water and forests as global or local? Transnational community-based networks transforming common-pool resources essence and scales

Since the 2000s, facing the increasing globalization and commodification of common-pool resources, community-based organizations managing water and forests at the local scale started to create transnational networks.

On the political and democratic preconditions of equal recognition

Alan Patten’s Equal Recognition is a compelling justification of a liberal,procedural conception of recognition. This conception is built upon a convincing conception of moral equality, but it does not offer a full theoretical discussion of recognition. I argue that the liberal recognition provided by Patten is too formal and narrow to address all relevant issues regarding conflicts...

With data going further back in history, this paper demonstrates that the introduction of so-called “Ghent systems” had no effect on unionization rates. We argue that the Ghent effect identified by the...

How corporatist institutions shape the access of citizen groups to policy makers: Evidence from Denmark and Switzerland

Traditional corporatist groups such as business groups and unions still play an important role in many countries, and the rumors exaggerates the decline of corporatist structures.
