In 1924, John Maynard Keynes complained about the fact that Southern Rhodesia, which he described as “a place somewhere in the middle of Africa”, was able to raise loans on the London market on the same terms as a large English borough. Existing literature on the “empire effect” has contended that investors did not discriminate between the bond issues of different colonies, either because they adopted similar economic and financial policies or because they were considered to be subsidiary governments to metropolitan states. However, archival records suggest that this was not the case and that African bonds were particularly unpopular. Contemporaries stressed that maintaining low borrowing costs for African colonies required considerable behind the scenes interventions by the Crown Agents using reserve funds they held on behalf of other colonies. This paper presents preliminary data on the financial connections between colonies created by this practice, which it calls the “sinews” of empire, and examines the implications for debates about imperialism and financial globalisation.
1924年,约翰•梅纳德•凯恩斯(John Maynard Keynes)抱怨称,南罗得西亚(south Rhodesia)——他称之为“非洲中部的某个地方”——能够在伦敦市场上以与英国一个大行政区相同的条件筹集贷款。关于“帝国效应”的现有文献认为,投资者对不同殖民地的债券发行没有区别对待,要么是因为它们采取了类似的经济和金融政策,要么是因为它们被视为大都市国家的附属政府。然而,档案记录显示,情况并非如此,非洲债券尤其不受欢迎。同时代的人强调,为非洲殖民地维持较低的借贷成本,需要王室代理人使用他们代表其他殖民地持有的储备资金进行大量的幕后干预。本文提供了由这种做法创造的殖民地之间的金融联系的初步数据,它称之为帝国的“肌肉”,并研究了关于帝国主义和金融全球化辩论的含义。

Does better governance abate the external debt–capital flight revolvement in sub-Saharan Africa? 更好的治理能缓解撒哈拉以南非洲的外债-资本外逃浪潮吗?

Most African countries are grappling with long-term fiscal slippages and escalating debt burdens due to high levels of non-concessional and overcapitalized borrowing. At the same time, the continent is paradoxically deemed a net creditor to the rest of the world owing to excessive capital flight. More concerning is the seemingly strong correlation between external debt and capital flight from these countries. While some studies have considered the moderating role of governance in the effect of capital flight on various sectors of African economies, how governance may moderate the correlation between external debt and capital flight remains empirically unexplored. Using unbalanced panel data on capital flight, external debt, and governance indicators from 1990 to 2020 for 20 African countries, we observe that; (i) the external debt–capital flight revolvement may be a short-run rather than a long-run phenomenon. (ii) The marginal effects show that improved governance indicators at least moderate the short-run positive correlation between external debt and capital flight. We discuss the policy implications.
大多数非洲国家正在努力解决长期财政下滑和债务负担不断增加的问题,这是由于大量的非减让性借款和过度资本化借款造成的。与此同时,由于资本过度外逃,欧洲大陆被视为世界其它地区的净债权人,这是自相矛盾的。更令人担忧的是,这些国家的外债与资本外逃之间似乎存在很强的相关性。虽然一些研究考虑了治理在资本外逃对非洲各经济部门的影响方面的调节作用,但治理如何调节外债与资本外逃之间的相关性仍未进行经验探索。利用1990年至2020年20个非洲国家的资本外逃、外债和治理指标的不平衡面板数据,我们观察到:(i)外债-资本外逃可能是短期现象,而不是长期现象。(ii)边际效应表明,改善治理指标至少缓和了外债与资本外逃之间的短期正相关关系。我们将讨论政策含义。

This study evaluates the influence of natural resource rents and foreign aid on democracy using panel data from 45 SSA countries from 1980 to 2021. Using five different democracy indices, six different foreign aid variables and six different natural resource rent variables, our endogeneity-corrected results establish the following conclusions: (i) all the democracy indices respond positively and significantly to multilateral foreign aid, total development assistance committee (DAC) aid and bilateral aid from Australia, the USA, the United Nations, and the European Union (ii) the political resource curse, rentier and repression theories are valid for rent from mineral, gas and oil resources (iii) the democracy indices respond positively and significantly to rent from coal and forest resources (iv) the effect of foreign aid on the democracy indices is contingent on natural resource wealth (v) these findings are robust to an alternative econometric estimation technique and specifications. The policy implications are discussed.

Political determinants of centre-state transfers: An empirical analysis across Indian states 中央邦转移支付的政治决定因素:印度各邦的实证分析
Pub Date : 2024-12-01 DOI: 10.1016/j.jge.2024.100130

This paper focuses on the political aspect of intergovernmental transfers in India. By using a balanced panel data-set comprising of data on 28 Indian states and Union Territories for the period 2003–2023 for both Legislative Assembly and Parliamentary elections at the state-level, the aim is to investigate whether there occurs a politically motivated distribution of financial resources by the central government to the states in India? The analysis has been done for three categories of centre-state transfers: loans, grants and tax devolution. The regression estimations include various political controls such as, electoral competition between political parties, voter participation rate, government’s ideological leaning, centre-state partisan affiliation, government incumbency and a control for political lobbying. The findings of this study reveal a significant influence of various political forces on different categories of intergovernmental transfers in India. For instance, a greater political competition leads to a lowering of grants and a rise in tax devolution and loans provided by the central government in proportion to the state’s GDP. A left-leaning government ideology is found to entail an increase in the proportion of grants from the centre in proportion to the state’s GDP. In addition, a greater partisan affiliation between the central and state governments leads to an increase in the average proportion of grants and tax devolution provided to that state. Finally, an increase in the political contributions provided to the winning party in a state leads to a rise in the provision of loans and grants by the centre to that state, while tax devolution is dampened. All these results do provide some evidence in favour of electoral opportunism and lobbying at work in the distribution of financial resources across Indian states.
本文关注的是印度政府间转移支付的政治方面。通过使用一个平衡的面板数据集,包括28个印度邦和联邦领土2003-2023年期间的立法议会和邦一级议会选举的数据,目的是调查中央政府是否出于政治动机向印度邦分配财政资源?这项分析是针对中央政府的三种转移支付方式进行的:贷款、拨款和税收下放。回归估计包括各种政治控制,如政党之间的选举竞争、选民参与率、政府的意识形态倾向、中央州的党派关系、政府任职和对政治游说的控制。本研究的结果揭示了各种政治力量对印度不同类别的政府间转移支付的重大影响。例如,更激烈的政治竞争导致补助金减少,税收下放增加,中央政府提供的贷款与邦的GDP成比例。研究发现,左倾的政府意识形态会导致中央政府拨款占该州GDP的比例增加。此外,中央和州政府之间更大的党派关系导致向该州提供的拨款和税收下放的平均比例增加。最后,在一个州,向获胜政党提供的政治捐款增加,会导致中央政府向该邦提供的贷款和拨款增加,同时税收权力下放受到抑制。所有这些结果确实提供了一些支持选举机会主义和游说在印度各邦财政资源分配中的作用的证据。

This study introduces a two-dimensional matrix analysis method that utilizes revealed comparative advantage and revealed comparative disadvantage indices. It aims to clarify the impact of trade remedy measures on beneficiary industries' performance. We compare the effects of these measures across both growing and mature industries. In the former case, we examine the steel industries in China and India, while in the latter case, we focus on Japan's basic chemicals and other products. By tracking the changes in the revealed comparative advantage and disadvantage indices before and after the execution of each measure, we identify distinct patterns depending on the industry's developmental stage. Although trade remedy measures are defined as countermeasures against unfair trade practices, this distinction enables us to determine whether trade remedy measures serve as tools for enhancing and sustaining industrial competitiveness or averting competitive disadvantages effectively with implicit intentions of governments. Furthermore, this analytical framework also provides insights into industry conditions. Its versatility extends to potential applications in corporate management and policy evaluation.
本文介绍了利用显性比较优势和显性比较劣势指标的二维矩阵分析方法。旨在阐明贸易救济措施对受益行业绩效的影响。我们比较了这些措施对成长型和成熟型行业的影响。在前一种情况下,我们研究了中国和印度的钢铁行业,而在后一种情况下,我们关注的是日本的基本化学品和其他产品。通过跟踪各措施实施前后的显性比较优势和劣势指数的变化,我们发现了不同行业发展阶段的不同模式。虽然贸易救济措施被定义为针对不公平贸易行为的反制措施,但这一区别使我们能够确定贸易救济措施是作为增强和维持产业竞争力的工具,还是在政府隐含意图的情况下有效避免竞争劣势的工具。此外,该分析框架还提供了对行业状况的洞察。它的多功能性扩展到公司管理和政策评估方面的潜在应用。

The nature of market-preserving government 维护市场的政府的本质
Pub Date : 2024-12-01 DOI: 10.1016/j.jge.2024.100131
Yi-Jiang Wang
This paper offers a framework for understanding the origin of market-preserving government. The paper shows that when parties in a Hobbesian society end in an arms race rather than war, they can create a market-preserving government to maintain the no-war equilibrium at lower cost. The government can be small yet effective or larger and more efficient. Under certain conditions, the parties are better off completely disarming themselves, paving the road for a modern society with equal rights for all citizens and a government monopoly on violence. The war-economic theory of political development sheds light on historical experiences and contemporary policy issues.
本文为理解维护市场的政府的起源提供了一个框架。这篇论文表明,当霍布斯社会中的各方以军备竞赛而不是战争结束时,他们可以创建一个保持市场的政府,以较低的成本维持无战争均衡。政府可以小而有效,也可以大而高效。在某些条件下,各方最好完全解除武装,为所有公民享有平等权利、政府垄断暴力的现代社会铺平道路。政治发展的战争经济理论为历史经验和当代政策问题提供了启示。

This paper examines the potential impact of institutional shocks on long-term development of property rights and on institutions regulating contracting. The paper seeks to demonstrate that the external institutional shocks might have an uncontemplated side-effect on the institutional development of Mexico. The analysis exploits the within-country variation in the presence of US administrative authorities during the Mexican-American conflict across Mexican states and cities. Using propensity score and nearest neighbour matching technique, we present some evidence of the potential long-term institutional implications of the presence of US administrative authorities. We show that the presence of US administrative authority generated an unexpected positive effect which could influence long-term property rights and contracting institutions of Mexican states. The positive impact of US administrative authorities’ presence are robust to a variety of specification checks and are particularly large for smaller cities.
本文探讨了制度冲击对产权的长期发展以及对规范订约的制度的潜在影响。本文试图证明,外部制度冲击可能会对墨西哥的制度发展产生意料之外的副作用。分析利用了美墨冲突期间美国行政机构在墨西哥各州和各市存在的国内差异。利用倾向得分和近邻匹配技术,我们提出了一些证据,说明美国行政当局的存在可能对制度产生的长期影响。我们发现,美国行政当局的存在产生了意想不到的积极影响,可能会对墨西哥各州的长期产权和契约制度产生影响。美国行政机构的存在所产生的积极影响对各种规范检查都是稳健的,尤其是对较小的城市。

We analyze the BRICs countries' role in Global Value Chains (GVCs) and their trade patterns in value-added and vertical specialization, using the World Input-Output Database (WIOD) from 2000-2014 with a decomposition model of intermediate goods and trade flows. Our findings reveal increased connectivity within global value chains, particularly for China and India. China significantly advances GVCs and intra-BRICs trade, focusing on high and medium-high technology industries. Brazil and Russia, however, have limited participation in GVCs, mainly engaging in value-added trade for medium-low and low-technology industries. Our network analysis reveals increasing connections between countries in global value chains, particularly for China and India. India excels in medium-technology goods and has increased its share in GVCs. While India and China demonstrate strong vertical specialization, Brazil and Russia concentrate major component exports on domestic value-added. Our study emphasizes the importance of expanding coordinated government policies among BRICs countries to foster value-added trade gains and industrial development. Governments in BRICs must address the strategic gaps to leverage their domestic resources effectively within the GVC framework.
我们利用 2000-2014 年的世界投入产出数据库(WIOD)和中间产品与贸易流分解模型,分析了金砖四国在全球价值链(GVC)中的作用及其在附加值和纵向专业化方面的贸易模式。我们的研究结果表明,全球价值链内部的连通性增强,尤其是中国和印度。中国以高新技术产业为重点,极大地推动了全球价值链和区域内贸易。而巴西和俄罗斯对全球价值链的参与有限,主要从事中低技术产业的增值贸易。我们的网络分析显示,各国在全球价值链中的联系日益紧密,尤其是中国和印度。印度在中等技术产品方面表现突出,在全球价值链中的份额也有所增加。印度和中国表现出很强的纵向专业化,而巴西和俄罗斯则将主要的零部件出口集中在国内附加值上。我们的研究强调了扩大金砖四国之间政府政策协调的重要性,以促进增值贸易收益和工业发展。金砖四国政府必须解决战略差距问题,以便在全球价值链框架内有效利用国内资源。

State directed industrialization in developing countries became a common strategy after World War II. The success of a small number of countries in East Asia added new dimensions to the debates on the role of states in taming domestic and international market forces. However, it soon became evident that states and government-private sector relations in developing countries show a great deal of variation which is reflected in the different degrees of success with state directed industrialization. This paper focuses on a country which has experienced above average rates of industrialization but has not been amongst the most successful cases. It examines the evolution of the larger political order, the state-private sector relations and the related “micro” institutions in four periods. One key finding is that the international environment has not always been conducive to industrialization. Moreover, industrialization outcomes did not depend on a single or a specific set of institutions but on the relations between the political and private sector elites, and more generally, on the political economy.
第二次世界大战后,国家指导发展中国家的工业化成为一种常见战略。东亚少数国家的成功为有关国家在控制国内和国际市场力量方面的作用的讨论增添了新的内容。然而,人们很快发现,发展中国家的国家和政府与私营部门的关系存在很大差异,这反映在国家指导的工业化取得了不同程度的成功。本文将重点关注一个工业化率高于平均水平,但并不属于最成功案例的国家。它研究了四个时期中更广泛的政治秩序、国家与私营部门的关系以及相关 "微观 "机构的演变。一个重要发现是,国际环境并不总是有利于工业化。此外,工业化的结果并不取决于单一或特定的一套制度,而是取决于政治精英和私营部门精英之间的关系,更广泛地说,取决于政治经济。
