The EU’s subsidiarity regime affects the politics and governance of the EU, because the notion of subsidiarity allows for continuous negotiation over its practical use. The constant battle over subsidiarity implies that the notion changes its meaning over time and alters the power relations between different actors within the EU. Since the Lisbon Treaty (2009), subsidiarity has mainly strengthened the position of member states at the expense of the Commission.

That the movement also generated a number of transnational coalitions with unusually broad and far-reaching ambitions remained somewhat under the radar. Projects like Alter Summit and DiEM25 seek to expand the anti-austerity movement’s struggle to the European level, by developing transnational organizational structures and challenging the political course of the EU. However, neither project managed to live up to its ambitions thus far and this article explores why. It argues that Alter Summit and DiEM25 represent attempts to create a transnational ‘modern prince’: a party-like organization that unites social movements around a counter-hegemonic strategy. While both managed to develop such strategies they also encountered challenges in facilitating democratic cohesion between transnational leaders and domestic supporters. This is partly the result of idiosyncratic shortcomings, but also reveals general challenges for transnational activism.

This article theorizes interregional norm dynamics and explores how, in times of crises, gender equality norms are shaped in interregional relations between the African Union and the European Union. The question is all the more relevant because gender equality is shaped very differently in the European Union and the African Union policies. The African Union has adopted a rather holistic understanding of gender equality, while the European Union approach is constrained by a market-making logic. Also, since the 2008 economic crisis, gender equality policies within the European Union seem to stagnate while they seem to expand in the African Union. Our analysis of core texts shows that at interregional level attention to gender equality is fragmented. Even though in some respects the African Union gender equality norms are more encompassing, and gendered effects of crises in the European Union would merit renewed attention to gender equality, the European Union norms and interests dominate the agenda. Showing how power asymmetries between and disjointed logics of regional organizations impact interregional gender equality norms, the article contributes to the scarce literature on interregional norm dynamics.

Almost inevitably, because of these commitments, such studies run into theoretical challenges relating to the use of ideas. In this article, I suggest that integrating ideational factors in positivist and materialist approaches to state behaviour requires: (1) distinguishing conceptually between interests and ideation as well as between individual beliefs and social ideas; and (2) addressing challenges of operationalisation and measurability. To that end, I employ neoclassical realism as a case study. I argue that a re-conceptualisation of ideas as externalised individual beliefs employed in political deliberation allows neoclassical realists to focus on how ideas and ideational competition intervene in the transmission belt from materially given interests to foreign policy choice. At the same time, it more clearly operationalises ideas as identifiable in language and communication. I suggest this reconceptualisation, while consistent with realist paradigmatic assumptions, need not be limited to neoclassical realism. Instead, transposed to different paradigms, it would similarly allow positivist-minded constructivists and institutionalists to avoid a conceptually and methodologically awkward equation of different ideational factors.

Within this ambit we are seeking manuscripts from established scholars as well as the very best new research from early-career scholars that emphasise: the contestations and radical ruptures in intensified processes of capitalist exploitation and appropriation with a focus on transformative alternatives beyond capitalism; the multi-scalar dimensions of struggles by social movements and grass roots organisations across local, state, and regional levels in the geographical expansion of capitalism; the appropriation of non-human nature within the epoch of the Anthropocene / Capitalocene and how socio-ecological substrata are embedded in the production of space; the role of the household as a crucial pillar of capitalist value and thus how gendered struggles over unpaid labour and social reproduction constitute everyday political economy; the centrality of race to the history and ongoing generation of capital accumulation necessitating a decolonisation of political economy frames of analysis; the constitution of spaces of non-capitalism (e.g. the commons), including Indigenous economic formations, that seek to challenge the survival of capitalism across different regional locales and urban environments; the transnational conditions of labour struggles, their embeddedness within local, regional and global scales of exploitation, and their organisation through class, gender, sexuality and racial hierarchies, as well as through digital spaces; the subsumption of capitalist production and the social and ecological reproduction of capitalism to financial and debt-based logics, processes and interests as a new terrain of exploitation, crisis and contestation; the contradictory transformations of capitalist states through the neoliberalisation of governance and the rise of authoritarian movements in the guise of authoritarian neoliberalism and fascism; the history of economic thought encompassing its pluralist, radical and heterodox traditions; the production of new axes of inequalities of income, wealth and risk within systemic and unfolding processes of uneven development; the new contours of monetary, fiscal, social and environmental policy being enacted at multiple scales by national, regional and city governments, central banks and other domains of state investment and regulation; and, the transformative role of new technologies, the merger between technology and finance, and new forms of oppression through surveillance capitalism Progress in Political Economy (PPE) Book Series seeks to combine the reputations and reach of the PPE blog and MUP across online and book publishing platforms as a basis for the launch and maintenance of a leading book series.

However, the extent to which implementing agencies actually participate in these networks, and which conditions explain network participation, have not yet been investigated. This article fills this gap by studying the conditions under which implementing agencies are expected to make more use of European administrative networks. Therefore, we turn to the participation of domestic implementing agencies in an administrative network during the common agricultural policy's post‐2013 reform. Relying on a fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis, this case indicates that longer EU membership, in combination with a large staff and domestic implementation issues, contributes to more active participation of implementing agencies in administrative networks.

Identifying a spectrum of policies and practices that seek to reproduce neoliberalism and shield it from popular and democratic contestation, contributors provide original case studies that investigate the legal-administrative, social, coercive and corporate dimensions of authoritarian neoliberalism across the global North and South. They detail the crisis-ridden intertwinement of authoritarian statecraft and neoliberal reforms, and trace the transformation of key societal sites in capitalism (e.g. states, households, workplaces, urban spaces) through uneven yet cumulative processes of neoliberalization. Informed by innovative conceptual and methodological approaches, Authoritarian Neoliberalism uncovers how inequalities of power are produced and reproduced in capitalist societies, and highlights how alternatives to neoliberalism can be formulated and pursued.

Government policy has centered on the prohibition of formal refugee camps and adopted regulations with regard to registration, residence, and work which drive refugees into illegality. This is partly the result of the chaotic and overwhelming nature of any refugee crisis, which is only reinforced by the Lebanese government's limited resources and capacities and the country's dysfunctional political system. However, institutional ambiguity in the context of the Lebanese response to the Syrian refugee crisis is not merely contingent. Departing from agnotology theory, this article demonstrates that there is also a strategic component to the institutional ambiguity that now determines the life of Syrian refugees in Lebanon. On the basis of fieldwork among Syrian refugee communities, elaborate policy analysis, and an extensive literature review the article reveals the political utility of maintaining uncertainty and precariousness. These insights have profound implications for the analysis of refugee politics and the formulation of policy recommendations.

The country’s 1.5 million Syrian refugees face a ‘no-policy-policy’ that rejects the establishment of official refugee camps and refuses to give them formal refugee status. A stringent entry and residency regime has left 70% of Syrian refugees without legal residency status, making them extremely vulnerable to exploitation. This situation of imposed informality and systematic unpredictability reproduces the position of Lebanon’s Palestinian refugees. With reference to an increasingly illusory ‘right to return,’ these have faced seven decades of ‘permanent temporariness’ in what is often called a perpetual ‘state of exception.’ Such institutional ambiguity is routinely explained as the consequence of capacity problems that stem from state fragility or hybridity and the unprecedented scale of refugee crises. This paper, however, argues that institutional ambiguity is not merely an effect of governance, but can also feature as a governance strategy. It explores the ways in which institutional ambiguity is produced and/or maintained as an instrument to pacify refugees. Building on critical policy analysis and qualitative case-studies, the paper conceptualizes these defining dynamics of Lebanon’s refugee governance as a ‘politics of uncertainty’ that institutionalizes ambiguity, liminality, and exceptionalism to control, exploit, or expel refugees.

This is done by forcing them to incur debts to finance their relocation, by undermining income-generating strategies and disrupting education, and by undercutting informal protection mechanisms. Evictions also subject refugees to permanent limbo. The resultant insecurity and uncertainty in terms of shelter are of such an existential nature that they severely undermine refugees’ survival options in Lebanon. This posits an implicit incentive for return to Syria. The “voluntary” nature of refugee return is thus largely illusory when evictions are omnipresent and deliberately irregular, arbitrary, and unaccountable, and when post-eviction relocation is increasingly barred.

PY - 2018 UR - https://hdl.handle.net/2066/215902 AB - Lebanon is one of the main host countries in the context of the Syrian refugee crisis, now sheltering the highest per capita number of refugees in the world. Its response to the arrival of some 1.5 million Syrian refugees was initially characterized by a ‘no-policy-policy’ that revolved around the prohibition of formal refugee camps and the discouragement of official refugee registration. The resultant institutional ambiguity – characterized by pervasive informality, liminality, and exceptionalism – is routinely assumed to be a manifestation of the state fragility and ‘bad governance’ that allegedly epitomize the Middle East. Questioning this premise, the paper draws out the empirical parallels between the formal policies and informal practices that govern refugees in Lebanon and the governance of ‘irregular’ migrants in Europe. The paper establishes that Lebanon’s manufacturing of refugees’ vulnerability is not merely contingent on capacity and resource deficits associated with state fragility but is partly a strategic approach to control and exploit refugees and to enforce their return. As such, it mirrors rather than contrasts with European countries’ de facto policies of abandonment and exhaustion that similarly aim to discourage migrants from coming to Europe and ‘encourage’ those that are there to leave.

These refugees face an ambiguous governance regime that revolves around the institutionalization of informality, liminality, and exceptionalism. This reality is routinely explained as stemming from the capacity/resource deficits innate in so-called fragile states or hybrid orders. This paper, however, argues that institutional ambiguity can also serve as a strategic governance modality and explores it as an instrument to discipline, exploit, and expel refugees. Building on critical policy analysis and qualitative case-studies of Palestinian and Syrian refugee settlements in Lebanon, the paper investigates the arbitrariness and ‘potenza’ that constitute institutional ambiguity. It analyses these as crucial aspects of the ‘manufactured vulnerability’ that pacifies refugees, renders them vulnerable to abuse, and ‘encourages’ them to leave the country. As such, this paper complements our structural understanding of state fragility or hybridity with the more agency-oriented idea of a ‘politics of uncertainty’ that institutionalizes informality, liminality, and exceptionalism to pacify particular populations.

Increasingly, however, ‘state’ and ‘non-state’ forms of governance are understood as closely connected and interdependent. This dissertation contributes to this theoretical shift from a dichotomous understanding of ‘failed states’ versus ‘rebel rulers’ towards a more holistic perspective on governance as a form of ‘hybrid political order.’ It does so by means of a qualitative case-study of two informal Palestinian refugee settlements – so-called ‘gatherings’ – in South Lebanon. Based on extensive fieldwork, the everyday interactions between Lebanese local state institutions and the ‘Popular Committees’ that govern inside Palestinian settlements are explored through concepts such as the ‘mediated state,’ the ‘negotiating statehood’ and the ‘twilight institution.’ This investigation of the governance dynamics – concerning the provision of services, the maintenance of public order and the organisation of political representation – in and around the often ignored gatherings helps to counterbalance the perspective of state and non-state forms of public authority as necessarily zero-sum. Lebanon’s Palestinian camps are routinely characterized as ‘states-within-the-state’ that undermine the sovereignty of the Lebanese state. The de facto interactions that occur between Lebanese and Palestinian governance actors in informal settlements, however, instead produce a form of mediated stateness in which Palestinian and Lebanese authorities depend on each other to maintain their delicate positions in the country’s hybrid political order. As such, the Palestinian Popular Committees might in important ways prop up rather than challenge the Lebanese state, demonstrating that state and non-state forms of authority can be mutually constitutive.

Drawing on literature about hybrid political orders, it is argued that in both settings political parties play a linchpin role in local governance. Based on this finding, three key functions of political parties in the governance of minority populations in hybrid political orders are identified: representation, provision and brokerage. Understanding the interdependencies and trade-offs between these different roles contributes to remedying the analytical blind spot regarding the nature, positions and roles of political parties in hybrid political orders.

This paper aims to contribute to start to fill this gap and, ultimately, to start a process of preventive learning concerning private sector involvement in genocides. Based on a literature review, the paper identifies four main roles – victim, preventer, direct accomplice and indirect accomplice – and three main motivations –profit maximization, economic survival and institutional pragmatism – concerning corporate complicity in genocides. Subsequently, the paper explores the concrete roles that companies played in three of the most uncontested cases of corporate complicity in genocide: the Jewish, Kurdish and Darfurian genocides. The paper compares the ways in which scholars have analyzedthe roles of companies in these genocidal processes and the motivations that drove companies to play this particular role. Based on these case illustrations, the most pertinent knowledge gap concerning corporate complicity in genocides is located in the absence of empirical data about the interests and motives driving corporate decision-making throughout genocides. The paperconcludes that this knowledge gap needs to be addressed if we are to better understand and potentially prevent corporate complicity in genocide.

We address this issue in this paper by studying how entrepreneurs obtain access to electricity in Lebanon, showing that the hybrid political order imposes a high cost on electricity. We furthermore find that a hybrid political order channels entrepreneurial talent into lobbying and bribery. The key constraint that emerges from the hybrid political order in this case is the corrupt organisation of governance of the electricity sector. This results in higher prices (because bribes for contracts have to be earned back) in entrenchment of oligopolies, because contracts often come with political protection.

This reveals that the Popular Committees emulate the Lebanese state institutions they come into contact with to bolster their own authority. They partly do so to be viable interlocutors for Lebanese state institutions. As such, the Popular Committees’ non-state authority might validate rather than challenge state authority in Lebanon and thereby shows how state and non-state authority can be mutually constitutive.

Residents, it turns out, engage in deliberate disinformation and stalling tactics and invoke both a professed and real ignorance about their situation. In contrast to dominant discourses that project Palestinian refugees as illicit and sovereignty undermining, I explain these tactics as a reaction to, and duplication of, a “politics of uncertainty” implemented by Lebanese authorities. Drawing on agnotology theory, and reconsidering the gatherings as sensitive spaces subjected to aleatory governance, I propose that residents’ responses to the looming evictions are a manifestation of the deliberate institutional ambiguity that Lebanese authorities impose on the gatherings.

In particular, the findings generated through an innovative process mapping methodology suggest that informal institutions do not merely complement and challenge existing formal institutions, but also portend future ones. Formalization of service delivery, however, is complicated by the fact that current informality does not merely stem from residents’ coping mechanisms, but also from Lebanese state officials’ nascence of how to deal with people who are neither citizens nor residents of UN-administered refugee camps.

Lebanon's fragile political order and history of protracted war have crucially shaped governance arrangements in Shabriha. These arrangements excluded Shabriha from legal dumpsites and recycling facilities and thereby decisively exacerbated the environmental consequences of the waste crisis. At first sight, Shabriha's resort to indirect, informal and politicised social networks to remedy its marginalisation constituted an effective form of resilience. However, drawing on an entitlements approach to vulnerability, we argue that these coping mechanisms also entrenched Shabriha's institutional marginalisation because they exacerbated its dependence on informal governance structures.

Yet several groups of Palestinians have received Lebanese citizenship since 1948, most (in)famously those from the ‘seven villages’, a chain of Shi‘i villages on Lebanon's southern border that was incorporated into Palestine in 1923. The trajectory of their nationalization is usually presented as a straightforward consequence of top-down Lebanese electoral politics. This article augments this dominant perspective through a case study of the community from the village of Salha, now in Israel, that currently lives in Shabriha, a small town near the city of Tyre in South Lebanon. Adopting the ‘negotiated statehood’ framework, the article offers an agency-oriented, bottom-up perspective on the community's gaining of citizenship and shows how the people from Salha have acquired citizenship not merely to gain access to, but also to ensure a degree of independence from, the Lebanese state and political parties.

It particularly highlights the indirect nature of these interactions and the brokering role of Lebanese political parties. Governance in Shabriha is conceptualized as a manifestation of a ‘mediated state’, a notion that has been instrumental in understanding governance in sub-Saharan Africa but has not yet been applied to the Mediterranean. Based on empirical insights from Shabriha, the article offers a tentative reconsideration of the mediated state concept in order to extend it 84928588565to scholarship on Mediterranean politics and governance.

Especially non-Western immigrant and refugee women have been identified as one of the population groups most likely to experience accessibility problems and, subsequently, transport-related social exclusion. The bicycle offers considerable potential to increase the mobility of these women. Hence, in the Netherlands and elsewhere, governments and non-governmental organizations have set up bicycle lessons for immigrant and refugee women. The paper discusses the impacts of these lessons on their bicycle use and activity participation. It draws on a quantitative survey and a series of in-depth interviews among non-Western immigrant women in Amsterdam. The results show that the impacts of the bicycle lessons vary. Some participants use the bicycle for everyday purposes, while others still face constraints preventing bicycle use for regular errands. The impacts on activity participation are limited. At the same time, the lessons have substantially improved women's feelings of self-esteem and self-confidence.

Service provision can substantially influence such state legitimacy. Services, however, are mostly provided by a multiplicity of (state and non-state) providers. This article therefore specifically explores how joint service delivery by multiple providers shapes the attribution of state legitimacy in Burundi by means of two qualitative case studies. Empirically, the article demonstrates, first, that the process of stakeholder interaction, rather than the output of this process, most distinctly shapes state legitimacy and, second, that there are substantial variations in legitimacy attribution by different stakeholders and for different state institutions. Epistemologically, the article suggests three specific challenges that merit attention in further empirical investigation of state legitimacy in fragile settings: the diversity of people’s expectations; the artificiality of state/non-state distinctions; and the personification and politicization of state institutions.

On the basis of qualitative analysis of two multi-stakeholder projects (MSPs) for water provision in Ethiopia, we find that the specific process of interaction between state institutions and non-state actors (both citizens and organizations) affects state legitimacy as a function of joint service delivery more profoundly than the outputs of this process. We explore this process of interaction by looking at division of roles, communication, decision making and accountability. However, placing our empirical findings in the context of Ethiopia’s broader political economy questions the effect of local MSPs on aggregated notions of legitimacy.Cet article contribue à la recherche émergente sur les liens entre la prestation de services par de multiples intervenants et la légitimité de l’Etat dans le cadre d’activités de développement. A travers une analyse qualitative de deux projets multi-acteurs d’approvisionnement en eau en Ethiopie, nous constatons que le processus particulier d’interaction entre les institutions publiques et les acteurs non étatiques (tant les citoyens que les organisations) affecte plus profondément la légitimité de l’Etat dans sa fonction de prestation conjointe de services que ne le font les résultats de ce processus. Nous nous intéressons à ce processus d’interaction en examinant la répartition des rôles, la communication, la prise de décision et la responsabilité. Toutefois, si nous situons nos résultats empiriques dans le contexte plus large de la politique économique de l’Ethiopie, nous soulevons la question de l’effet des projets locaux multipartenaires sur l’ensemble des notions de légitimité.
