摘要

My dissertation contributes to the literature on the forms of cooperation, an specifically on the creation of international institutions. I study the determinants of state preferences over the dispute settlement mechanisms governing regional integration agreements, and their actual establishment. Three causal mechanisms are explored: functional needs, power asymmetry considerations, and concerns based on asset specificity and related problems of opportunism.; Pride of place is given to the latter causal argument, given it has been the least explored one in the international relations literature on the forms of cooperation. A theory on the creation of international institutions is developed on the basis of the transaction costs economics literature.; A typology of dispute settlement mechanisms is developed, as well as a “vulnerability index” (Vind) that measures the degree of asset specificity involved in economic interactions across borders.; The issues of state preferences and negotiation outcomes are addressed through the statistical analysis of 58 (fifty-eight) regional integration agreements and two case studies: the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), and the Common Market of the South (MERCOSUR).; The main finding is that asset specificity has a limited albeit systematic effect on state preferences and negotiation outcomes regarding the establishment of dispute settlement mechanisms in regional integration agreements. Functional needs play a very limited role in state in institutional creation, while power asymmetry concerns are prevalent mostly where asset specificity levels are low.
