Dr Marco Martini
PhD thesis defended at the Eigenössische Technische Hochschule Zurich under the supervision of Prof. Dr Andreas Wenger.
Dr Martini’s thesis examines the determinants and outcomes of escalation in international trade disputes. It shows that mutual increases in parties’ stakes, rather than power relations and the parties’ costs of conflict, are linked to substantial increases in escalation levels, and the variation in bargaining outcomes declines with increased escalation levels. The thesis employs state-of-art-econometric techniques using newly collected datasets.
