Series Statement: World Bank e-Library.

Content: These articles, initially presented at the Annual World Bank Conference on Development Economics, held April 25-26, 1996, address four themes: banking failures as crises or opportunities for reform; reducing poverty through targeted programs and rural finance; legal systems and economic development; and labor and environmental standards in international trade. Although covering varied topics, the articles share two overarching themes: the shifting role for government in economic development, and the central role for government policy in each area as critical to development. The articles also focus on the role of institutions, the importance of political and economic competition, and the role of law and political organization. Several articles stress the vital role of institutions and related incentives in finance. These articles and the keynote address discuss the role of government as an institution, the balance between introducing competition within government and devolving government activities to the market, and the balance between deregulation and correction of market failures and the creation of markets. The authors note that political competition in bureaucracies may be an effective surrogate for market competition. Also discussed is the growing recognition that as income rises, so does demand for labor and environmental standards. Another article shows that linking environmental standards to trade will not achieve the goals sought by the standards and could disrupt trade. Multilateral organizations may have an important advocacy role in ensuring fair play in administering standards. The discussion on the role and the rule of law emphasizes the links between demand for law and the legal and political systems. Legal systems must be country or context specific: there is no unique, optimal combination of contract designs and enforcement mechanisms because culture plays an important role in the interaction of social, political, and economic forces.

Content: The express delivery industry plays a pivotal role in fostering social and economic advancements. Promoting its development requires two key strategies: improving its infrastructure and revolutionizing its management approach. For this innovative research , the authors conduct a comprehensive examination of the express delivery industry's network optimization policies, the intricacies and complexity of its operational mechanism and the reform path for its innovation model. The goal is to build a theory of operations for this industry that can facilitate management reform by improving standardization, optimizing overall functionality, and increasing efficiency.

Content: Paradoxically, in a time of information technology and high labour mobility, location still matters for firms. Clusters can be the source of advantages for those firms located within the cluster as well as for the entire region. This book presents a study exploring how social capital is leveraged for the transfer, sharing and spillover of knowledge to achieve competitive advantage in clusters. A resource based perspective on clusters was adopted, focussing on the interplay of the two intangible resources social capital and knowledge. A case study explored an Australian biotechnology cluster. Results revealed that the different dimensions of social capital drive knowledge development in distinct ways and that cluster management plays a crucial role. From a theoretical perspective, this research makes a valuable contribution by showing that the overlap of the three theoretical streams knowledge, social capital and clusters can be drawn on to explain how competitive advantage is created in clusters

Series Statement: Volkswirtschaftliche Schriften 527

Content: Two new bargaining games, called "Freedom to Punish (FTP)" and "Right and Choice to Punish (RAP)", are developed, analyzed and tested by means of an experimental implementation. Hypotheses about behavior are developed, discussed and tested. The central hypotheses are aimed at the importance of freedom of choice, on the difference between the FTP game and the RAP game, and on the crowding-out of intrinsic motivation. As might have been expected, fairness plays a role in both games, represented by the frequent appearances of equal splits as well as by the frequent rejections of unfair offers. -- In addition to that, fairness was crowded out by the new Institution of a veto power decision, confirming the importance of the institutional setting for behavior. Contrary to the few veto power sales in the RAP game, an amazingly high number of receivers refrained from veto power in the FTP game. This significant difference has clearly been attributed to the different information conditions and the existence of a bonus. This bonus can be interpreted in terms of freedom of choice, and exploits a value for the freedom to choose for the first time in experimental economics
