description: In many trade environments - such as online markets - buyers fully learn their valuation for goods only after contracting. I characterize the buyer-optimal ex-ante information in such environments. Employing a classical sequential screening framework, I find that buyers prefer to remain partially uninformed, since such an information structure induces the seller to set low prices. For the optimal information signal, trade is efficient, and the seller only extracts the static monopoly profit. Further, I fully characterize all possible surplus divisions that can arise in sequential screening for a given prior.

Potential development of a Southeast Asia Regional Economic Integration Organization as a strategy for expanding regional cooperation under the global climate change regime
Creators: name: Su, Yi-Yuan
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The countries of Southeast Asia have abundant, cross-boarder natural resources and face common adverse impacts of climate change. However, the collective behavior of the Group 77 during global climate negotiations cannot represent the best interests of Southeast Asian countries. Responding to these regional concerns is one of the major goals of the Asia Regional Economic Integration Organization (REIO) proposal. This dissertation proposes that Southeast Asian countries use an independent organization, called an Asia REIO, to represent their best interest during the climate negotiations. This Asia REIO is a joint implementation measure to mitigate GHG emissions of the developing countries in Southeast Asia. This initial proposal envisions the Asia REIO as a credit generating and supply market with transparent information and effective regulation. When the Asia REIO mature enough, it would be able to upgrade from a REIO format to a joint fulfillment agreement, in which Southeast Asia countries can take physical reduction commitments under the Protocol and perform as an "Asia Bubble" under the climate change regime. To become a Bubble Party, the Asia REIO should: (1) improve information accuracy on emission inventory by using "new and additional financial resources;" (2) develop regional policies and measures for an Asia REIO; (3) promote regional flexible mechanisms standards; (4) establish a "CDM exchange market" for investment and trading; (5) establish a "single CDM market' and finally (6) select emission reduction commitments to trigger the group participation in the Asia Bubble. In order to encourage widespread participation in the post-2012 framework, Appendix II discusses the possibility of Taiwan's membership in the proposed Asian Bubble, without violating the current political status quo between Taiwan and the People's Republic of China (PRC).

description: We present evidence from a natural field experiment designed to shed light on whether individual behavior is consistent with a neoclassical model of utility maximization subject to budget constraints. We do this through the lens of a field experiment on charitable giving. We find that the behavior of at least 80% of individuals, on both the extensive and intensive margins, can be rationalized within a standard neoclassical choice model in which individuals have preferences, defined over own consumption and their contribution towards the charitable good, satisfying the axioms of revealed preference.

description: This paper studies the life-cycle dynamics of exporters and multinational enterprises (MNEs). We present a dynamic model of trade and MNE activity in which the mode of serving a market depends on the well-known proximity-concentration tradeoff. We show that the option of performing MNE activities in the model produces life-cycle patterns for exporters that differ from those in an export-only model. Calibrating our model to rich firm-level data from France and Norway, our main quantitative finding is that a reduction in trade costs triggers much larger responses in growth rates and exit rates, for young exporters, in the model with MNEs than in the model without MNEs. We also show that the model is largely consistent with a set of new facts on the joint life-cycle dynamic behavior of exporters and MNEs.
Jurisprudence for prudential measures in international trade in financial services
Creators: name: Jung, Byungsik
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Prudential measures are financial regulations for consumer protection, soundness of financial institution and stability of financial markets A prudential measure is the most powerful affirmative defense since it prevails over all obligations and commitments under international treaties as long as it is not abused. A host state has a wide discretion in regulating prudential measures and thus is tempted to use them as non-tariff trade barriers. Furthermore, prudential measures would result in regulatory expropriation and thus a host state would be obliged to compensate a foreign investor's loss. Therefore, this paper is to develop a standard of review for jurisprudence on prudential measure in order to prevent abuse of prudential discretion. In addition, this paper aims to prove that prudential measures are not subject to regulatory expropriation and compensation as long as they fall within police power. In order to develop an appropriate standard for prudential discretion, this paper reviewed various standards regarding abuse of discretion such as a good-faith principle, margin of appreciation, state of necessity and fair and equitable treatment. The common criterion applicable to all standards above is a good-faith principle. Therefore, a prudential discretion also must meet the following requirements deriving from a good-faith principle: (i) prudential purpose, (ii) reasonable relationship between prudential purpose and a taken measure, and (iii) balance between secured prudential supervision and impaired interest. Regulatory expropriation is a host state's substantial interference with a foreign investor's property or with the investor's legitimate expectation. Regulatory expropriation requires compensation unless it falls within police power. Police power is the exercise of a state's regulatory discretion which is conducted in a good-faith manner. This police power does not amount to a significant deprivation of a investor's property compared to a secured public interest, and thus is not subject to compensation. In fact, a regulatory expropriation hardly exists in financial services because financial services are heavily regulated to the extent that foreign investors would expect that their investment will be interfered by a host state for prudential reasons. Furthermore, prudential carve-out can be a good defense against regulatory expropriation because a state's regulatory action for prudential reasons is likely to fall within the police power.
UNLOCKING WORKPLACE SUCCESS: THE PRAGMATIC STRATEGIES SHAPING PROFESSIONAL DISCOURSE

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: This article examines the role of pragmatics in professional discourse, focusing on how pragmatic strategies are employed in specific professional contexts, including business negotiations, medical consultations, and legal proceedings. Pragmatics, the study of language use in context, plays a crucial role in facilitating effective communication and achieving communicative goals in professional settings. Through a review of relevant literature and analysis of real-world examples, this article explores how speakers employ pragmatic strategies such as politeness strategies, speech acts, and conversational implicature to achieve their professional objectives. Additionally, the article discusses the impact of cultural norms, power dynamics, and professional roles on pragmatic behavior in professional discourse. Practical implications for professionals and recommendations for improving pragmatic competence in professional communication are also addressed. By shedding light on the pragmatic dimensions of professional discourse, this article aims to enhance our understanding of effective communication in professional contexts and provide insights for practitioners, educators, and researchers.

title: Optimal Cost Overruns: Procurement Auctions with Renegotiation

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: auction; cost overrun; procurement; renegotiation
subject: 330

description: Cost overrun is ubiquitous in public procurement. We argue that this can be the result of a constrained optimal award procedure: The procurer awards the contract via a price-only auction and cannot commit not to renegotiate. If cost differences are more pronounced for a fancy than a standard design, it is optimal to fix the standard design ex ante. If renegotiation takes place and the fancy design has higher production costs or the contractor's bargaining position is strong, the final price exceeds the initial price. Moreover, the procurer cannot benefit from using a multi-dimensional auction, i.e., under the optimal scoring auction each supplier proposes the standard design.

Subjects: classificationCode: 3507
subject: Strategy, management and organisational behaviour

description: The major premise of antitrust law in the United States over its 100-year history is that competition law and policy should lead to the enhancement of consumer welfare. Particularly since the mid-1970s, with the efforts from the Chicago and Harvard schools, antitrust law in the United States has found a balance between the interests of producers and consumers within the competition law regime In this regard, antitrust of the United States can be regarded as being fair because it does not provide prejudiced treatment to either the producers or consumers within the competition law regime Further, antitrust law in the United States has endeavored significantly to endorse dynamic consideration in order to protect the competitive process in the markets. Although Korean competition laws, endorsing the consumer welfare paradigm, have progressively developed to maintain competition in the market since 1980, the recent judicial opinions and administrative decisions seem to be lost without direction. Additionally, those decisions do not appear to suitably recognize dynamic consideration in their decision making process. Moreover, excessive consumer protection is a move towards protection of competitors, not competition and downplays dynamic consideration, a lubricant of the competitive process. Furthermore, a common argument among Korean scholars that Korea has a distinctive market situation where large business conglomerates dominate many industrial sectors does not also make any economic sense at least in terms of competition policy. Therefore, this dissertation, recognizing these problems of Korean competition laws, will consider improvements to the competition law and policy of Korea by minoring experiences of the United States. This dissertation will begin by contradicting the common argument of unique economic circumstances, and demonstrating how a monopoly (or dominance) should be recognized to contain dynamic consideration in competition policy. Further, policy suggestions will be proposed to break free from the dilemma on large business conglomerates, which have stood at the center of competition law issues.

title: Konfessioneller Religionsunterricht und Ethikunterricht in Österreich aus religionswissenschaftlicher Perspektive
Creators: name: Wurzrainer, Robert
Year: 2015

description: Im Rahmen dieser Diplomarbeit wird der Frage nach dem religiösen und ethischen Bildungsauftrag von Schule in einer pluralistischen, multireligiösen sowie säkularen Gesellschaft aus einer religionswissenschaftlichen Perspektive nachgegangen. Diesbezüglich werden die in Österreich ab der Sekundarstufe II vorzufindenden Modelle bezüglich religiöser und ethischer Bildung, nämlich der konfessionelle Religionsunterricht sowie der Schulversuch Ethik in ihrer geschichtlichen Entwicklung dargestellt und hinsichtlich der Inhalte und Aufgaben miteinander verglichen. Die oftmals kontroversen Diskussionen, die sich bezüglich dieser Unterrichtsfächer entwickelt haben, werden im Anschluss daran dargestellt und die unterschiedlichen Positionen verdeutlicht. Nach einem Blick auf die Situation in Europa und den dort anzutreffenden Konzeptionen bezüglich religiöser und ethischer Bildung wird auf die Ausbildung der Lehrpersonen sowohl für den konfessionellen Religionsunterricht als auch für den Schulversuch Ethik eingegangen, sowie die Behandlung von anderen Religionen im Rahmen der Ausbildung der Lehrkräfte und hinsichtlich der Lehrpläne dargestellt und verglichen. Da festzustellen ist, dass auch im Ethikunterricht ein beträchtlicher inhaltlicher Schwerpunkt auf unterschiedliche Religionen und religiöse Traditionen gelegt wird, wird der im Anschluss daran Vorschlag formuliert, ein Unterrichtsfach mit der Bezeichnung „Religionskunde und Ethik“ zu etablieren, als alternativen Pflichtgegenstand zum konfessionellen Religionsunterricht. Das Bachelorstudium Religionspädagogik mit der Spezialisierung „Pädagogik der Religionen“ bietet diesbezüglich eine mögliche und grundlegende Ausbildung. Hinsichtlich der inhaltlichen Ausgestaltung eines derartigen Unterrichtsfaches ist die Religionswissenschaft als Disziplin angefragt, die hier einen bedeutenden Beitrag leisten könnte. Bezugnehmend auf die Arbeiten von Wanda Alberts werden Überlegungen zu einer Beteiligung der anwendungsorientierten Religionswissenschaft sowie zum Desiderat einer religionswissenschaftlichen Didaktik formuliert und Ausblicke auf mögliche weitere Entwicklungen hinsichtlich religiöser und ethischer Bildung an Österreichs Schulen getätigt.

Health, safety & environmental measures and international economic law
Creators: name: Orellana, Marcos A.
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Owing to scientific insights and greater awareness of the deteriorating environment, since the 1970s governments have adopted a range of health, safety and environmental (HSE) measures at the national and international levels. While their purposes vary, HSE measures generally seek: the protection of the population from HSE risks; the internalization by economic operators of their negative externalities; and the transformation of consumption and production patterns. As a result, environmental law has emerged in comparative and international law. HSE measures enter a policy space already occupied by international economic law. Generally, economic law seeks to enable successful economic ventures and development by removing obstacles to trade and securing protection to foreign investment. To these ends, it deploys dispute settlement mechanisms which may attract conflicts relating to HSE measures, especially where the costs of compliance with these measures significantly affect foreign investors or countries other than those benefiting from increased HSE protection. International tribunals established under the World Trade Organization (WTO) or international investment agreements (IIAs) have scrutinized HSE measures. Adjudicating claims involving HSE measures confronts the challenge of affirming economic law disciplines while avoiding interpretations and results that defeat the objectives of the international regimes underlying HSE measures. Under the paradigm of sustainable development, which seeks to reconcile economic development and environmental protection by integrating environmental issues in the development planning and decision-making process, systemic integration techniques of treaty interpretation avail to facilitate normative dialogue between economic, environmental, and human rights law. This dialogue is critical to threading coherence, synergy and mutual supportiveness among these regimes, so that they do not frustrate each other's goals. In this light, this dissertation explores the issues and tensions involved in the adjudication of HSE measures by dispute settlement mechanisms established in international economic law, with a view to finding ways of building mutually supportive trade, investment, environmental and human rights regimes.

While their purposes vary, HSE measures generally seek: the protection of the population from HSE risks; the internalization by economic operators of their negative externalities; and the transformation of consumption and production patterns. As a result, environmental law has emerged in comparative and international law. HSE measures enter a policy space already occupied by international economic law. Generally, economic law seeks to enable successful economic ventures and development by removing obstacles to trade and securing protection to foreign investment. To these ends, it deploys dispute settlement mechanisms which may attract conflicts relating to HSE measures, especially where the costs of compliance with these measures significantly affect foreign investors or countries other than those benefiting from increased HSE protection. International tribunals established under the World Trade Organization (WTO) or international investment agreements (IIAs) have scrutinized HSE measures. Adjudicating claims involving HSE measures confronts the challenge of affirming economic law disciplines while avoiding interpretations and results that defeat the objectives of the international regimes underlying HSE measures. Under the paradigm of sustainable development, which seeks to reconcile economic development and environmental protection by integrating environmental issues in the development planning and decision-making process, systemic integration techniques of treaty interpretation avail to facilitate normative dialogue between economic, environmental, and human rights law. This dialogue is critical to threading coherence, synergy and mutual supportiveness among these regimes, so that they do not frustrate each other's goals. In this light, this dissertation explores the issues and tensions involved in the adjudication of HSE measures by dispute settlement mechanisms established in international economic law, with a view to finding ways of building mutually supportive trade, investment, environmental and human rights regimes.

Rural roads, education, and agriculture: A micro-econometric evaluation study using Trinidad and Tobago data
Creators: name: Charles, Ainsley Ulric Peter
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: This dissertation evaluates the effects of infrastructure investments on agriculture and education in the rural communities of a small Caribbean economy. Specifically, it provides an empirical test of the causal impact of an access-road rehabilitation program on school attendance, attainment, agricultural labor supply, input choice, crop harvest, yield, and commercialization, and it investigates the program's targeting effectiveness. Data are drawn from population censuses taken in 1990, before the program started, and 2000 and from an agricultural census of 2004. Appearing shortly after the program's end, the latter two datasets provide ex-post measurements that permit assessment of program impact. The study illustrates that evaluations of infrastructure investments are possible even where program-specific primary data are lacking, and that commonly available non-program-linked data (such as censuses), while not ideal, may provide the raw information required. Identification relies on propensity score matching (PSM) techniques to create a set of analytical samples that comprise statistically comparable groups of program and non-program communities. Results indicate that the program was effective in extending benefits to poor agricultural communities at the national level but that sub-national targeting was less successful. Road rehabilitation also fed increases in school attendance, of up to 16 percent and 18 percent for children in early childhood and advanced secondary levels, and promoted gains of up to half a year in attainment. Agricultural operations in the domestic food-crop sector were also affected, with a reallocation of labor supply away from fulltime farming, consolidation of ownership among larger operators, and greater use of newer technologies, particularly in the production of certain cash crops. Robustness checks, including use of alternative welfare measures to assess targeting, and varying sample composition and PSM weighting schemes to measure impacts, left the overall conclusions unaltered. These findings represent new empirical evidence on the impact of infrastructural improvements in the Caribbean. They reveal that social and productive sector constraints can be ameliorated with targeted programs, although benefits may accrue unevenly. And they suggest a role for complementary public investments to buttress potential gains to all communities, and to increase the progressivity of distribution of these gains amongst weaker ones.
