It presents new evidence on the limited coverage of existing programs and emphasizes the challenges caused by high informality for achieving universal social protection for old age income, for health, for unemployment risks and for anti poverty safety nets. It identifies interaction effects between SP programs and the behavioral responses of workers, firms and social protection providers, which can further undermine efforts to expand coverage, summarizing evidence from recent 410 0$aDirections in development (Washington, D.C.) 606 $aSocial security$zLatin America 606 $aEconomic assistance, Domestic$zLatin America 606 $aPublic welfare$zLatin America 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSocial security 615 0$aEconomic assistance, Domestic 615 0$aPublic welfare 676 $a361.98 700 $aRibe$b Helena$f1949-$0858959 701 $aRobalino$b David A$0858960 701 $aWalker$b Ian$f1957-$0858961 712 02$aWorld Bank. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459963703321 996 $aAchieving effective social protection in Latin America$92482737 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03840nam 22005775 450 001 9910782930703321 005 20230808223248.0 010 $a1-282-76711-9 010 $a9786612767111 010 $a1-4008-2371-4 010 $a1-4008-1188-0 024 7 $a10.1515/9781400823710 035 $a(CKB)1000000000007010 035 $a(EBL)617324 035 $a(OCoLC)705530961 035 $a(DE-B1597)446187 035 $a(OCoLC)979970135 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781400823710 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC617324 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000007010 100 $a20190708d2000 fy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurun#---|u||u 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aRuling the world $epower politics and the rise of supranational institutions /$fLloyd Gruber 205 $aCore Textbook 210 1$aPrinceton, NJ :$cPrinceton University Press,$d[2000] 210 4$dİ2000 215 $a1 online resource (xvi, 316 pages) 311 0 $a0-691-01041-2 327 $tFront matter --$tCONTENTS --$tLIST OF FIGURES --$tLIST OF TABLES --$tPREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS --$tIntroduction: From Anarchy to Organization --$tPART I: WHY DO NATIONS COOPERATE? --$tPART II: HOW DO NATIONS COOPERATE? --$tPART III: NORTH AMERICAN TRADE --$tPART IV: EUROPEAN MONEY --$tPART V: CONCLUSIONS --$tBIBLIOGRAPHY --$tINDEX 330 $aThe last few decades have witnessed an extraordinary transfer of policy-making prerogatives from individual nation-states to supranational institutions. If you think this is cause for celebration, you are not alone. Within the academic community (and not only among students of international cooperation), the notion that political institutions are mutually beneficial--that they would never come into existence, much less grow in size and assertiveness, were they not "Pareto-improving"--is today's conventional wisdom. But is it true? In this richly detailed and strikingly original study, Lloyd Gruber suggests that this emphasis on cooperation's positive-sum consequences may be leading scholars of international relations down the wrong theoretical path. The fact that membership in a cooperative arrangement is voluntary, Gruber argues, does not mean that it works to everyone's advantage. To the contrary, some cooperators may incur substantial losses relative to the original, non-cooperative status quo. So what, then, keeps these participants from withdrawing? Gruber's answer, in a word, is power--specifically the "go-it-alone power" exercised by the regime's beneficiaries, many of whom would continue to benefit even if their partners, the losers, were to opt out. To lend support to this thesis, Gruber takes a fresh look at the political origins and structures of European Monetary Unification and NAFTA. But the theoretical arguments elaborated in Ruling the World extend well beyond money and trade, touching upon issues of long-standing interest to students of security cooperation, environmental politics, nation-building--even political philosophy. Bold and compelling, this book will appeal to anyone interested in understanding how "power politics" really operates and why, for better or worse, it is fueling much of the supranational activity we see today. 606 $aBalance of power 606 $aInternational cooperation 606 $aInternational relations 606 $aSupranationalism 615 0$aBalance of power. 615 0$aInternational cooperation. 615 0$aInternational relations. 615 0$aSupranationalism. 676 $a327.1/7 676 $a327.17 700 $aGruber$b Lloyd$f1964-$01374733 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782930703321 996 $aRuling the world$93408247 997 $aUNINA
