Journal ArticleDOI
Case studies and the statistical worldview: Review of King, Keohane, and Verba's designing social inquiry: Scientific inference in qualitative research
TL;DR: In this article, King, Keohane, and Verba argue that the foundation of classical statistics and the epistemology of Carl Hempel and Karl Popper is an inadequate and misleading basis for a critical evaluation of case studies and present examples of research that are not easily accommodated within the authors' framework.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hegemonic stability theory and 19th century tariff levels in Europe
TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative set of explanations for changes in international tariff levels based on the notion of a "political business cycle" is proposed, which can explain why Britain's behavior was generally inconsistent with that implied by a theory of hegemonic stability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Selection and Influence: Interest Groups and Congressional Voting on Trade Policy
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of interest groups on congressional roll-call voting are investigated. But the authors do not consider the influence of groups on the outcome of congressional roll call voting.
Journal ArticleDOI
The political economy of the tariff cycle
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the changing balance of private actors' political demands, and show that old regions have no reason to be involved in tariff politics at business cycle peaks; during troughs, whether a state becomes more or less protectionist depends on the relative political strength of old import-competing and old exporting interests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Firms and Tariff Regime Change: Explaining the Demand for Protection
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present two complementary theories of the movement of tariff levels in response to changing business conditions, both of which rely on the business cycle to drive these changing demands.
