Do states manage to build education systems that produce students with political values they uphold? We test the indoctrination hypothesis using World Value Survey data spanning 96 countries. We devise an empirical strategy that can identify the effects of education on political values by using information about the political regime under which individuals live, and regimes under which they got educated. Our results suggest that state indoctrination is at work. For example, we find that higher education increases voting behavior by at least 45 percent more for cohorts that have studied in a democratic rather than an autocratic country.

As the negative socio-economic consequences of climate change increase, attention to adaptation issues is growing worldwide. Currently, most of the adaptation measures are reactive and not very large-scale. The more ambitious approach to climate change adaptation is evident in the idea of "transformational adaptation," which is gaining growing interest in both academic discussions and international ...

This paper introduces a novel binary stability property for voting rules—called binary self-selectivity—by which a society considering whether to replace its voting rule using itself in pairwise elections will choose not to do so. In Theorem 1, we show that a neutral voting rule is binary self-selective if and only if it is universally self-selective. ...
