@VVandenboogaard presents her impressive (!) work on informal tax in Sierra Leone incl how it influences state's interaction w informal inst's and when the state accepts/even supports it.

Psychology focuses on micro-level foundations for collective behavior.
That is a good start, but we have much to learn from macro-level social science as well (economics, political science, sociology).
Looking forward to attend the Power & Politics conference at CMI tomorrow!
