The empirical research at national and local levels supports the hypothesis that informal power structures influence the dynamics of this interaction. Consequently, this contributes to an outcome of externally induced democratisation different to what was intended by external actors. The decentralisation process has been utilised by ruling domestic elites for political purposes. Donors have rather focused on the technical side and ignored this informal dimension. By analysing the diverging objectives and perceptions of external and internal actors, as well as the instrumentalisation of formal democratic structures, it becomes clear, that the 'informal has to be seen as normal'. At a theoretical level, the analysis contributes to elite-oriented approaches of post-conflict democratisation by adding 'the informal' as an additional factor for the dynamics of external-internal interaction. At a policy level, external actors need to take more into account informal power structures and their ambivalence for state-building and democratisation.}, language = {en} } @article{JasniakErmakovaBaierletal.2018, author = {Jasniak, Michael and Ermakova, Tatiana and Baierl, Ronny and Halberstadt, Jantje}, title = {What drives social entrepreneurial appraisal among hearing-impaired individuals?}, series = {International Journal of Entrepreneurial Venturing}, volume = {10}, journal = {International Journal of Entrepreneurial Venturing}, number = {2}, publisher = {Inderscience Enterprises Ltd}, address = {Geneva}, issn = {1742-5360}, doi = {10.1504/IJEV.2018.092734}, pages = {236 -- 255}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Involvement of disadvantaged individuals into entrepreneurship facilitates their social integration into mainstream societies. The present study addresses the drivers of social entrepreneurial appraisal among hearing-impaired individuals within a unique social minority environment. In prior research, social appraisal was empirically shown to determine social entrepreneurial intention. Adopting the theory of planned behaviour, this study investigates the impact of entrepreneurial self-efficacy, general social support and perceived barriers on social entrepreneurial appraisal. Based on a survey with 221 respondents, our results demonstrate that social entrepreneurial appraisal of hearing-impaired individuals result from their entrepreneurial self-efficacy and general social support. In terms of taking advantage of social opportunities, importance should be given to the role of entrepreneurial education and heterogeneous networks across minorities.}, language = {en} } @article{Bruttel2018, author = {Bruttel, Lisa Verena}, title = {The Limits of Buyer Power}, series = {Review of Behavioral Economics}, volume = {5}, journal = {Review of Behavioral Economics}, number = {2}, publisher = {Now Publishers inc.}, address = {Hannover}, issn = {2326-6198}, doi = {10.1561/105.00000082}, pages = {149 -- 167}, year = {2018}, abstract = {This paper studies the behavior of buyers confronting an incumbent monopolist and a potential market entrant in a repeated trade situation. In the experiment, buyers have two possibilities to demand lower prices in future trade periods. First, they can withhold demand. Second, they can voluntarily pay a higher price to the entrant in order to encourage future re-entry. Both these forms of buyer behavior occur in the experiment. They are less frequent when the number of buyers is large as opposed to small. A control treatment tests to what extent such behavior can be attributed to strategic motives.}, language = {en} } @article{PaganelliSchumacher2018, author = {Paganelli, Maria Pia and Schumacher, Reinhard}, title = {The vigorous and doux soldier}, series = {History of European ideas}, volume = {44}, journal = {History of European ideas}, number = {8}, publisher = {Routledge, Taylor \& Francis Group}, address = {Abingdon}, issn = {0191-6599}, doi = {10.1080/01916599.2018.1509225}, pages = {1141 -- 1152}, year = {2018}, abstract = {If war is an inevitable condition of human nature, as David Hume suggests, then what type of societies can best protect us from defeat and conquest? For David Hume, commerce decreases the relative cost of war and promotes technological military advances as well as martial spirit. Commerce therefore makes a country militarily stronger and better equipped to protect itself against attacks than any other kind of society. Hume does not assume commerce would yield a peaceful world nor that commercial societies would be militarily weak, as many contemporary scholars have argued. On the contrary, for him, military might is a beneficial consequence of commerce.}, language = {en} } @article{ThalerHerbstMerz2018, author = {Thaler, Verena Sabine and Herbst, Uta and Merz, Michael A.}, title = {A real product scandal's impact on a high-equity brand}, series = {Journal of Product \& Brand Management}, volume = {27}, journal = {Journal of Product \& Brand Management}, number = {4}, publisher = {Emerald Group Publishing Limited}, address = {Bingley}, issn = {1061-0421}, doi = {10.1108/JPBM-05-2017-1469}, pages = {427 -- 439}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Findings - The results provide (longitudinal) support for the proposed evaluative approach.

When levying an optimal direct tax on energy or carbon use is not feasible, the analysis shows that exactly the same adjustments in resource allocation can be generated by the combination of a land tax, a housing tax, and a commuting tax. We then analyze the effects of these taxes on urban spatial structure, showing that they reduce the extent of commuting and the level of housing consumption while increasing building heights, generating a more-compact city with a lower level of emissions per capita.}, language = {en} } @article{FossenMartin2018, author = {Fossen, Frank M. and Martin, Thorsten}, title = {Entrepreneurial dynamics over space and time}, series = {Regional science and urban economics}, volume = {70}, journal = {Regional science and urban economics}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0166-0462}, doi = {10.1016/j.regsciurbeco.2018.04.004}, pages = {204 -- 214}, year = {2018}, abstract = {Entrepreneurship is a regional and persistent phenomenon.

We consider regions of different sizes and systematically search for the most suitable spatial weights matrices. We find substantial spatial dependence as well as time persistence of start-up activity, especially in the high-tech industry. This suggests that local start-up activity has positive extemal effects and that entrepreneurship policy could play an efficiency-enhancing role.}, language = {en} }
