The conventional wisdom in economics, sociology, and political science is that accurate perceptions of others' interests, beliefs, and ideologies promote cooperation. Obstacles to international cooperation therefore emerge from misperception and misunderstanding. In Constructive Illusions, Eric Grynaviski challenges this conventional wisdom by arguing that when nations wrongly believe they share a mutual understanding, international cooperation is actually more likely, and more productive, than if they had a genuine understanding of each other's position. Mutual understanding can lead to breakdowns in cooperation by revealing intractable conflicts of interest, identity, and ideology. Incorrectly assuming a mutual understanding exists, in contrast, can enhance cooperation by making actors confident that collaborative ventures are in both parties' best interest and that both parties have a reliable understanding of the terms of cooperation. Grynaviski shows how such constructive misunderstandings allowed for cooperation between the United States and the Soviet Union between 1972 and 1979.During détente, the superpowers reached more than 150 agreements, established standing consultative committees, regularly held high-level summit meetings, and engaged in global crisis management. The turn from enmity to cooperation was so stark that many observers predicted a permanent end to the Cold War. Why did the superpowers move from confrontation to cooperation? Grynaviski's theory of the role of misunderstanding in cooperation provides an explanation that is significantly different from liberal institutionalist and constructivist approaches. This book's central claim is that states can form what French president Valéry Giscard d'Estaing called "a superb agreement based on complete misunderstanding." 606 $aInternational relations$xPhilosophy 606 $aInternational cooperation 606 $aMiscommunication$xPolitical aspects 606 $aDetente 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1969-1974 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInternational relations$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aInternational cooperation. 615 0$aMiscommunication$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aDetente. 676 $a327.1/1 700 $aGrynaviski$b Eric$f1977-$01032851 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910465515203321 996 $aConstructive illusions$92450958 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04785nam 22006015 450 001 9911020413603321 005 20250807130502.0 010 $a3-031-91068-0 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-031-91068-5 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC32256220 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL32256220 035 $a(CKB)40138174800041 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-031-91068-5 035 $a(EXLCZ)9940138174800041 100 $a20250807d2025 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 14$aThe Bank-Business Relationship $eInformation Asymmetries, Relationship Lending, and Regulation /$fby Paola Brighi, Maurizio Mussoni 205 $a1st ed. 2025. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer Nature Switzerland :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2025. 215 $a1 online resource (222 pages) 311 08$a3-031-91067-2 327 $a1.

Conclusions. 330 $aThis book investigates the factors driving the transformation of banks? credit function and the evolving financial requirements of corporations, with a particular focus on the dynamics of bank-business relationships. It addresses the impact of inherent market failures in the banking sector, notably information asymmetries and credit rationing, on these relationships and their influence on corporate decisions regarding funding sources. The book also examines the competitive pressure faced by firms that adopt new entrepreneurial models, necessitating innovative strategies in financial management, and evaluates the adaptive responses banks can employ to meet emerging financial needs. Additionally, it analyzes how banking regulation influences lending decisions, especially under conditions marked by information asymmetries and financial constraints. A distinctive feature of the book is its comprehensive analysis of the motivations underlying recent transformations within the banking sector. These transformations stem from both endogenous processes, such as the classification of financial and banking services as ?credence goods? and the related regulatory implications, and exogenous factors, including regulatory reforms and the ongoing transition toward sustainability and digitalization. This book will appeal to academic scholars, practitioners, and policymakers in banking and risk management.
