Perfect equilibria of dynamic political games. The present paper examines issues of stability and reform when such equilibria … exist. Which environments tend toward institutional stability? Which tend toward reform? We show that when political rules … decisions alone. More generally, we identify sufficient conditions for stability and reform in terms of recursive self selection …

Are natural resources a source of conflict or stability? Empirical studies demonstrate that rents from natural … source of conflict and the rentier state view which emphasizes the role of resource rents in promoting peace and stability … struggle. We demonstrate that the associated increased cost of conflict may in fact promote regime stability. The peaceful …

. The stability analysis of the dynamical system is carried out and a detailed description of the behavior of trajectories …, the linear stability of monomorphic states in the discrete-time replicator coincides with the one of the continuous case …

This paper compares stability of international environmental agreements for six different rules of coalition formation … coalitions. From a policy perspective, counterintuitively, it turns out that stability is higher under exclusive than under open … membership and stability increases with the degree of unanimity. We discuss the policy implications of our result for future …

architectures that cannot prevent free-riding in public good network games. Finally, we show that aggregation enhances the stability …
