Research Abstract |
This research project has sought to analyze the problems of coalition formation and institutional building that are commonly observed in the realms of trade, money, peacekeeping operations, non-proliferation, global warming, etc. The problems are intrinsically intertwined with each other, hindering effective governance: a large coalition would be preferable in solving a global issue, but needs to be content with weak behavioral rules because it necessarily entails many heterogeneous members. A small coalition can create strong rules but is often ineffective in solving a global issue because it is simply too small. The research team, composed of political scientists and economists, have analyzed the problems by applying political theories of realism and constructivism and economic theories of rational choice and new institutionalism. Their analyses have illuminated the nature of the problems and uncovered appropriate institutional arrangements to reduce the dilemma.
