Explaining convergence of OECD welfare states: a conditional approach (2011, background): “…the convergence of societies, political science has moved towards a ‘middle-range’ approach, emphasizing the formerly implicit causal mechanisms and allowing a better operationalization of explanatory factors (Braumoeller, 2006; Drezner, 2005; Holzinger and Knill, 2005; Lenschow et al., 2005).”
The power of functionalist extension: how EU rules travel (2014, background): “This effect is well documented for both the EU and the United States (US) (see, for example, Bradford 2012; Damro 2012; Drezner 2005).”
The European regulatory state and global public policy: micro-institutions, macro-influence (2007, background): “Drezner (2005; 2007) develops this argument for international market regulation and contends that only great powers – defined as ‘governments that possess large internal markets’ – exert meaningful influence.”
