Regional energy integration in Latin America: lessons from Chile's experience with natural gas / Mares, David R; Martin, Jeremy M   Journal Article
Mares, David R Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2012.
Summary/Abstract In the 1990s regional economic integration regained popularity as a means for promoting sustainable economic development in the developing world. Latin America, where market liberalisation and pro-market presidents proliferated in that decade, emblemised this belief. Even today, when pro-state intervention governments are on the upswing, the rhetoric of economic integration continues. Yet integration schemes are faltering. This article presents a case study to demonstrate that neither markets nor political will of leaders can produce successful economic integration unless the politics of integration have been favourably resolved. Chile best exemplifies this situation. Chile's lessons learned through their natural gas and energy development model serve as an excellent prism for analysing the political economy of regional economic integration and speculating on what types of regional energy integration schemes can work best.

Revisiting the politics of post-conflict peacebuilding: reconciling the liberal agenda? / Greener, B K   Journal Article
Greener, B K Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract There is a growing body of literature dedicated to critiquing liberal peacebuilding. This paper revisits the current post-conflict peacebuilding agenda in light of these critiques, outlining how both proponents and opponents perceive three core principles, that is, democratisation, economic liberalisation and state-building. Drawing attention to the emergence of arguments for alternative approaches, this paper argues that recent developments provide some hope for reconciling proponents of the liberal agenda with their growing legion of critics.
