Not all election winners are equal: Satisfaction with democracy and the nature of the vote

It is well known that individuals who voted for the winning party in an election tend to be more satisfied with democracy than those who did not. However, many winners deviate from their first choice when voting. It is argued in this article that the mechanisms that engender satisfaction operate less forcefully among such winners, thereby lessening the impact of victory on satisfaction. Results show that the gap in satisfaction over electoral losers among these ‘non‐optimal winners’ is, in fact, much smaller than that of ‘optimal winners’, who voted in line with their expressed preferences. A win matters more for those who have a bigger stake in victory. The article further explores how the effect of optimal victory on satisfaction varies across electoral systems.     

召公的廉政思想及其当代价值

召公的廉政思想是周初社会转型期总结殷商灭亡的沉痛教训的产物,它继承了前人的廉政思想,并进行了一些创新。召公的廉政思想体现在"爱国"、"保民"、"敬德"等方面。"劳己,不劳民;为民,不扰民"和"得民和"是其思想的精髓之所在,甘棠遗爱是其廉政思想的具体体现。作为廉政之鼻祖,召公的廉政思想是当代人反思借鉴的一面镜子,是中国共产党反腐倡廉工作的源头活水,对当前的廉政文化建设有一定的现实指导意义。     

The size principle and the strategic basis of an alliance: Formalizing intuitions

At the end of the Cold War, attention is keenly turned towards predicting alliance behavior in the international system. As such the lessons from past history are important in helping us guide our expectations. One recent lesson, Schweller (1993), argued that the strategic basis of a coalition was decisive in determining the size of coalitions; offensive coalitions would be minimum winning while defensive coalitions would be maximal. We show that by formalizing in game theoretic terms what ‘seems reasonable,’ in fact does not yield these predictions. We find no support for the strategic basis of a coalition being determinate in predicting the size of a coalition. As such, formalizing the intuitions from the lessons of the past help guide us in our search for usable lessons in alliance formation.     

国家安全新需求与军事理论创新

军事发展需要先进的军事理论作为引领和指导。具有穿透力和前瞻性的军事理论研究，不仅必须在充分借鉴国内外已有研究成果和实践经验的基础上，同时还必须关注国际安全背景的演变及其带来的限制条件的变化，把握重大问题发展演变的内在线索和逻辑，并形成系统性和可验证的知识体系。只有国家现代化才有军事学术的现代化，而学术现代化又反过来助推国家战略能力的提升。新时代国家安全需求为军事理论发展创造了更广阔的空间，加上中华文明丰厚的战略思想遗产可资借鉴，今天的军事理论创新具有十分有利的条件。在新军事革命浪潮中，理论研究不能迷失方向，要在历史、现实和未来之间架起有益的桥梁，这样才能跟踪战争形态演变，理解战争制胜机理，准确把握当代战争的特点和规律，提出具有指向性、系统性的军事思想，也才能使军事斗争准备真正反映当代战争的本质要求。战略是决定国家命运的关键要素。历史发展证明，殖民主义、霸权主义的老路已经行不通，中国要走出一条不同于传统权力争霸的和平发展道路，对军事能力建设及其运用提出了相应的更高要求，也需要军事实践和理论的强有力支撑，并必然成为理论创新的重要动力来源。     

统筹先进性与差异性——新型社会组织开展创先争优的方法论视角

在新型社会组织中开展创先争优活动存在一个重要的方法论问题，其核心是党的先进性与新型社会组织的差异性如何统筹。总的指导思想是科学处理好先进性与差异性的关系，即用先进性统帅差异性，用差异性落实先进性。但是在具体实施这一统筹的过程中又要区分新型社会组织的不同情况，进行较为细致的微观分析。可以说，正确合理地界定研究单元和变量是这一微观分析得以进行的关键。

What About Winning? Looking into the Blind Spot of the Theory of Campaign Professionalization

The international literature on campaign professionalization suggests that election campaigning has become increasingly slick and professional in recent decades. But while significant attention has been paid to changing campaign tools and tactics, one critical question has been consistently overlooked: Do professionalized campaigners perform better at the ballot box? This question should be a critical one for campaign scholars, yet the existing literature is almost entirely silent on the relationship between campaign professionalization and electoral outcomes. This paper reviews the existing literature for clues about how professionalized campaigning may help or hinder electoral performance and draws on recent research using Gibson and Rommele's (2009 Gibson , R. , and A. Rommele . ( 2009 ). Measuring the professionalization of political campaigning .

Effect of Institutions: Analysis of Japanese Municipal Public Procurement

Using data from Japanese municipalities, this article analyzes the impact of institutional reform processes on the average winning bid for municipal public procurement. The results are (1) the general competitive bidding method led to a decrease in the average winning bid, and (2) bidding reform itself led to a decrease in the average winning bid. The former is a factor that results from the competition function, and the latter is an authority's commitment factor, which is rooted in an aggressive atmosphere for efficiency through the reformed bidding system; this factor is similar to the “Hawthorne Effect,” in which changes in businesses’ behavior during the course of a particular term may be related only to the special social situation, and social treatment that they encountered.     

Political Risk: The Institutional Dimension

The argument developed in this paper is that the political arrangements and institutions that help leaders stay in office are not necessarily the ones that promote economic growth and prosperity. Indeed political leaders can remain in office more securely by rewarding the groups that keep them in power with privileged access to public resources. The net result is that the leadership remains in office but at the price of poor economic performance. It is not that the consequences of mismanaging the economy are unforeseen; rather the increased chances of an economic crisis are an acceptable price to pay if it means avoiding a political crisis which challenges the leaders' hold on power. Political survival, not peace and prosperity, is what determines the choice of policies. In this way bad economics can be good politics. The principal hypothesis addressed is that the smaller the size of the winning coalition the more the leadership depends on distributing private goods to the coalition members in order to purchase their loyalty, and, therefore the greater is the level of political risk. The ultimate effects of coalition size and the corruption attending the competition for private goods are the reduction of foreign direct investment per capita. These hypotheses were tested in a three stage least squares (3SLS) simultaneous estimation. The results generally supported the theoretical expectations.
