Comparative Institutional Advantage in the European Sovereign Debt Crisis

Creator:: Johnston, Alison, Hancké, Bob, and Pant, Suman
Abstract:: Excessive fiscal spending is commonly cited as a root of the current European debt crisis.

Social Partners and the Welfare State: Recalibration, Privatization or Collectivization of Social Risks?

Creator:: Johnston, Alison, Kornelakis, Andreas, and d'Acri, Costanza Rodriguez

Unions Against Governments Explaining General Strikes in Western Europe, 1980–2006

Creator:: Hamann, Kerstin, Johnston, Alison, and Kelly, John
Abstract:: Across Western Europe, unions have increasingly engaged in staging general strikes against governments since 1980.

We posit that theories developed to explain economic strikes hold little explanatory...

Sharing the Rewards, Dividing the Costs? The Electoral Consequences of Social Pacts and Legislative Reform in Western Europe

Creator:: Hamann, Kerstin, Johnston, Alison, Katsanidou, Alexia, Kelly, John, and Pollock, Philip H.

Here, we analyse whether governments’ pursuit of pacts affects their...

Does Aqueous Fullerene Inhibit the Growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Escherichia coli?

Creator:: Hadduck, Alex N., Hindagolla, Vihangi, Contreras, Alison E., Li, Qilin, and Bakalinsky, Alan T.

When known confounding factors were avoided, growth yields of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Escherichia coli cultured in the presence and absence of independently prepared lots of underivatized nC₆₀ were found not to be significantly different.
