AbstractInstitutional effectiveness varies widely across Chile's 346 municipalities. Whereas some local governments seem to work with impeccable precision, others struggle to deliver basic services and welfare benefits to the population. This article seeks to explain why such variation exists; it combines quantitative and qualitative evidence to show how mayors can play a crucial role in building institutional effectiveness. The study focuses on the administration of Chile's municipal job placement offices. It finds that municipalities where mayors have held office for three or more consecutive terms exhibit stronger institutional capacity than those localities where electoral turnover is the norm. The analysis, therefore, underscores an interesting finding: electoral competition has the potential both to improve and to undermine administrative capacity.

In a 1998 interview, then-Secretary of State Madeleine Albright referred to the United States an "indispensible nation" in world affairs. The U.S. "stands tall" and "sees further into the future than other nations." Its interests cannot be sacrificed in pursuit of multilateral cooperation and thus must be taken into account if such cooperation is to be successful. This thesis seeks to address this claim empirically by examining the level of United States involvement in several treaty negotiations after 1990 in order to assess its impact on the ability of institutions to be effective. The International Criminal Court, The Montreal Protocol, The Kyoto Protocol, and The International Aid Transparency Initiative are examined as case studies to determine if U.S. cooperation is necessary for institutional effectiveness.
