Abstract

In this project, Pollins sets out to make progress in international political economy theory building by: identifying both consistent and contradictory claims found in the field; testing these competing models using a common information base; and building and refining a new theoretical framework based on these tests. The concepts tested include: groups that include a dominant member or bloc are more likely to cooperate than groups that do not have such dominance; two nations with asymmetric resources are more likely to cooperate than two nations with symmetric resources; and states that plan far into the future are more likely to cooperate than those that discount future gains.
