This study examines the political and economic determinants of U.S. foreign direct investment (FDI) in Latin America. The analysis focuses on fifteen Latin American and Caribbean countries for the period of 1979 to 1996. Market size, workers' skill levels, and political instability are found to have a statistically significant effect on the investment behavior of U.S. multinational firms. In addition, we find that a poor human rights record and military coups d'etat positively influenced U.S. FDI flows during the time series.

We develop a model to explain state adoption of death penalty exemptions for juveniles under age 18. Employing event history analysis, we find that internal factors are the primary determinants of juvenile exemptions. More specifically, we find that citizen ideology & death penalty support, as measured by the number on death row, provide explanatory power. Regional & temporal variables, on the other hand, appear to have little impact on state adoption of death penalty exemptions for those under age 18. 2 Tables, 1 Appendix, 27 References.
