SUMMARY:Comparative Politics Workshop with Carlo Prato
DESCRIPTION:Comparative Politics Workshop with Carlo Prato \nDateOctober 5\, 2015 \nTime12:30pm \nLocation \nContact \nSAVE the Date\, Next MONDAY\, Oct. 5 — Carlo Prato (of) Georgetown Univ. with “RATIONAL IGNORANCE AND ELECTORAL IMBALANCE\, ” the 1st Comparative Politics Workshop of 2015-16: 12:30 PM\, Bunche 4357 (Conference Room)(from the abstract): [We] study a formal model where “rationally ignorant” voters hold ex-ante different views about candidates’ quality (for example\, due to incumbency) and party labels (for example\, due to ideology). We study the effect of each of these two types of imbalance on campaign spending\, voter attention\, and democratic responsiveness. Our theory provides a way to organize a large set of empirical findings\, such as the strong impact of incumbency on electoral outcomes\, the relatively smaller impact of partisan redistricting\, as well as the existence of an incumbency spending advantage with limited electoral consequences. The theory has also implications for the interpretation of estimated incumbency effects.More details at: www.polisci.ucla.edu/content/comparative-politics-workshop-with-carlo-prato  \nEvent Details:  \nParking | Directions \nPlease register here:

SUMMARY:Methods Workshop with Adam Glynn
DESCRIPTION:Methods Workshop with Adam Glynn \nDateOctober 3\, 2014 \nTime12:00pm to 1:30pm \nLocation\n4357 Bunche Hall \nContact \nPresenter:Adam Glynn\, Emory UniversityTitle: “Front-door Difference-in-Differences Estimators”Abstract:In this paper\, we develop front-door difference-in-differences estimators that utilize information from post-treatment variables in addition to information from pre-treatment covariates. Even when the front-door criterion does not hold\, these estimators allow the identification of causal effects under assumptions related to standard difference-in-differences assumptions and allow the bounding of causal effects under relaxed assumptions. We illustrate these points with an application to the National JTPA (Job Training Partnership Act) Study and with an application to Florida’s early in-person voting program. For the JTPA study\, we show that an experimental benchmark can be bracketed with front-door and front-door difference-in-differences estimates. Surprisingly\, neither of these estimates use control units. For the Florida program\, we find some evidence that early in-person voting had small positive effects on turnout in 2008 and 2012. This provides a counterpoint to recent claims that early voting had a negative effect on turnout in 2008.Click here to download the paper. Jointly sponsored with the UCLA Department of Statistics \nEvent Details:  \nParking | Directions \nPlease register here:

SUMMARY:Autonomy vs. Diversity: Kant and Hegel
DESCRIPTION:Autonomy vs. Diversity: Kant and Hegel \nDateOctober 4\, 2013 \nTime9:00am to 10:30am \nLocation\n4357 Bunche Hall \nContact \nThe notions of autonomy and diversity\, both important in social and ethical theory\, seem to have little to do with one another. To put it roughly\, autonomy has to do with self-governance\, with the ability to determine your actions by your own nature or principles; its opposite is heteronomy\, which is acting from someone else’s nature or principles\, as when they give you orders or you want to please them. Diversity\, on the other hand\, means variation\, and its opposite is uniformity. So the two terms are not\, it appears\, even opposed to each other. \nEvent Details:  \nParking | Directions \nPlease register here:

SUMMARY:Life\, Death\, or Zombies? The Vitality of Regional Economic Organizations
DESCRIPTION:Life\, Death\, or Zombies? The Vitality of Regional Economic Organizations \nDateSeptember 23\, 2013 \nTime8:00am to 9:30am \nLocation\n10383 Bunche Hall \nContact \nSince the 1960s\, regional economic organizations (REOs) have proliferated\, not least in the developing world. Yet many of these agreements are among countries with few factor complementarities and little to trade\, and recent research shows that many of them do not live up to their own goals. This paper shows that most organizations end up in one of three situations. They might die off altogether\, though this is infrequent\, since politicians are usually reluctant to exit from or disband agreements. A large group of them become “zombies\, where they exist in name alone\, particularly if they are unable to attract and retain talented staff. A third category includes organizations that are alive and functioning. I demonstrate this proposition using a new measure of the vitality of regional economic organizations. Around 30% the organizations in the sample are alive and functioning; around 20% are essentially dead\, and nearly 50% are zombies. The ability of the secretariats to attract and retain talented staff (as proxied by hardship compensation associated with the secretariat’s location) as well as to autonomously enact policy are associated with whether organizations truly stay active\, or whether they simply endure or die off. Economic predictors\, such as levels of wealth\, trade\, or trade potential in a set of economies\, also play a role.	http://www.polisci.ucla.edu/workshops/ir-workshop-papers/Julia%20Gray%20Paper-%2009-23-13.pdf\n10/23/2013	Other	Anthony Pagden\, UCLA		Giulia	Sissa	Giulia Sissa – UCLA	UCLA	2014 Travel Study Info Session – The Invention of Europe: Paris & Venice	Tuesday\, October 29\, 2013	12:00 PM – 1:00 PM	10/29/2013 12:00:00	10/29/2013 13:00:00	4276 Bunche Hall	Enjoy an exciting and instructive summer\, in two of the most glamorous cities in Europe: Paris and Venice.

We queried more than 10\,000 people in five languages — English\, Spanish\, Chinese\, Korean and Vietnamese. To include the most comprehensive list of over 350 electoral\, civic and policy-related survey questions\, a team of 86 contributors from 55 colleges and universities across 18 academic disciplines contributed question content. This Workshop will provide CMPS users with an outlet to present their research to a broad group of researchers both inside and outside of academia. Workshop events will range from research presentations as well as planning and brainstorming sessions as we gear up for the CMPS 2020. Presentations will feature cross-racial comparative data analysis\, from a diverse and inter-generational group of CMPS users from across the country.We encourage collaboration to strengthen the academic pipeline in the study of race\, ethnicity and immigration\, through co-authorships and research opportunities\, particularly for graduate students\, post-docs and junior faculty. This 2-day meeting will serve as a professional development and networking opportunity for scholars of race\, ethnicity and immigration in the United States. The CMPS is changing the way high-quality survey data is collected among racial and ethnic groups in the U.S.  Through collaboration and inclusiveness\, the CMPS broadens the scope of who has access to high-quality survey data in academia and beyond!For more information\, please visit our webpage here www.cmpsurvey.org.  \nEvent Details:  \nParking | Directions \nPlease register here:

SUMMARY:Methods Workshop with Barry O’Neill
DESCRIPTION:Methods Workshop with Barry O’Neill \nDateMay 28\, 2015 \nTime3:00pm \nLocation\n4276 Bunche Hall (Seminar Room) \nContact\nContact Information\nBelinda SunnuPhone bsunnu@polisci.ucla.edu \nPresenter:Barry O’Neill\, UCLATitle: “What is an Agreement?”Abstract:The concept of an agreement is important in game theory\, political theory and law but writers disagree about just what it is. Some argue that an agreement cannot be a pair of promises\, but the stit logic of agency allows an analysis that avoids their objections. The definition has an unexpected consequence. Legal as well as informal norms say that one party should not undermine a deal by interfering with the other’s carrying out their part. Courts and scholars have based this on a catch-all norm of “good faith in performance” but appealing to good faith is unnecessary. Non-interference follows from the basic principles of an appropriate logic of obligation.About the Speaker:Barry O’Neill is Professor of Political Science at the University of California\, Los Angeles.  His fields of study include international relations and methodology.  For additional background\, click here.Sponsored by the Formal Theory Reading Group \nEvent Details:  \nParking | Directions \nPlease register here:

Varying the structure of information and voting costs\, we characterize the bounds on expected turnout implementable via correlated equilibria. We show that the resulting high-turnout equilibria can be divided into two classes\, depending on the relative group sizes\, have intuitive properties and exist in large electorates and uncertain environments. Our results suggest a possible instrumental voting solution to the turnout paradox\, and provide micro foundations for group-based voter mobilization models emphasizing the effects of communication on turnout. \nEvent Details:  \nParking | Directions \nPlease register here:

SUMMARY:REP Workshop - Lauren Davenport\, Stanford University
DESCRIPTION:REP Workshop – Lauren Davenport\, Stanford University  \nDateMay 22\, 2017 \nTime3:00pm to 4:30pm \nLocation\n4357 Bunche Hall  \nContact \nAbstract:Since 2000\, the U.S. multiple-race population has skyrocketed by 106%—more than 17 times the rate of growth of the single-race population. Individuals of mixed-race comprise the fastest-growing youth group in the nation\, and an estimated 20 percent of Americans will identify with multiple racial groups by 2050. In this talk\, I examine the broader social and political implications of the increasingly racially mixed American landscape. Drawing upon the U.S. census\, surveys of biracial college students\, and in-depth interviews\, I address the following questions: How do mixed-race Americans see themselves\, socially\, culturally\, and politically? What factors determine how someone of mixed-race parentage decides to racially self-identify? What are the repercussions of these identities for the broader American political structure? How do people of mixed-race approach racial policies\, such as affirmative action\, and social policies\, such as same-sex marriage? What do the increasing number of multiracial identifiers mean for the allocation of resources and benefits intended for minority populations? \nEvent Details:  \nParking | Directions \nPlease register here:
