The french paradox: Implications for variations in global convergence

A debate divides the cross-cultural community between advocates of global convergence and those foreseeing continued cultural divergence. Given competing evidence, we examine anomalous cultural findings of the \u27French Paradox\u27 to re-evaluate existing theory on convergence dynamics. By differentiating between the levels of analysis of micro individual values and macro societal practices, we question the regular processes of a top-down-bottom-up model of convergence. In addition, our analysis uncovers power structures interdependency (. PSI) between the political and economic elites of a nation as a potential mediator explaining discrepant results

Globalization, economic development, and corruption: A cross-lagged contingency perspective

The 2020 health and economic crisis has exacerbated tensions and debates over whether globalization benefits economic development, as countries face both pressures to enhance economic opportunities through globalization and populist movements seeking protection from global forces. We first review perspectives that offer competing evidence about the role of globalization in regard to economic development and corruption. Drawing on resource dependence and institutional theory, we test the two contingencies of the country’s stage of economic development (low, lower-middle, upper-middle, high) and the globalization dimension (economic, social, political) at play to reconcile competing findings. Using a cross-lagged panel design, we show that these contingencies significantly explain when and what type of globalization can benefit a country’s economy and affect corruption. In doing so, the study provides a platform for future research, and identifies important patterns that can better guide policymaking. Among other results, we find low-income countries’ GDP and corruption benefit the most from the formal dimensions of globalization. With increased wealth, countries are more responsive to the legitimacy accrued with the informal dimensions of globalization, which we find comes at the expense of economic efficiency for high-income countries

The Homogeneity and Heterogeneity of Fields

This study examines the ways in which fields are structured, and explores the particular dynamics that foster homogeneity and heterogeneity in actors' behaviour. we found that actors' understansing of the field varied along six dimensions. These dimensions were interpreted based upon the actor's perceived position in the field. As a result, actors' reactions to ongoing events varied too. Thus, this paper uncovers various factors shaping homogeneity or, conversely, heterogeneity in actors' understandings of, and subsequent reactions tot ongoing events. In doing so, we contribute to out understanding of what fields are, and how their specific characteristics may affect actors' response
