Within the context of CDDRLs project on democratic transitions, this paper explores the causes for the failure of Algeria to democratize in the 1990s. Adhering to the projects common case study framework, the paper outlines the impact of long term structural variables before moving on to an examination of the domestic, then external variables that acted around the moment of potential transition in 1991-1992. In conclusion, the paper highlights the mutual interaction of domestic and external variables in explaining the failed transition outcome in the Algeria case.]]>Thu, 14 Aug 2008 11:43:46 PSThttp://cddrl.stanford.edu/publications/22213?http://cddrl.stanford.edu/publications/22209, July 2008

Combining international legal theory and transaction cost economics, this book develops a novel, comprehensive framework which reveals the factors that determine the optimal balance between institutional credibility and flexibility. The author tests this rational design paradigm on four recent anti-trafficking efforts: narcotics, money laundering, conflict diamond, and small arms. She sheds light on the reasons why policymakers sometimes adopt suboptimal design solutions and unearths a nascent trend towards innovative forms of international cooperation which transcend the limitations of national sovereignty.]]>Fri, 11 Jul 2008 11:30:59 PSThttp://cddrl.stanford.edu/publications/22198?http://cddrl.stanford.edu/publications/22197Lynne Rienner Publishers, June 2008
