Abstract: This paper is going to argue that international political competition is a second-best option that can only keep political action (somewhat) in check, without imposing insurmountable obstacles in its path. Previous research has argued that the existence of several political jurisdictions allows citizens to vote with their feet and engage in international comparisons (yardstick competition).

Keywords: limits of political competition; voting with one’s feet; limits of political action; political integration (search for similar items in EconPapers)
