This study develops and tests a role modification model that accounts for evolutionary changes in foreign policy behavior. One of the major premises of this research is that what often appears as dramatic restructuring in foreign policy is actually the culmination of a series of modifications that transpired over an extended period of time. The model relies on a total of six independent variables as determinants of PLO foreign policy output representing multiple levels of analysis. There are a total of 12 dependent variables expressed as either foreign policy tactical roles or strategic goals. Relying on content analysis of relevant PLO documents, the role modification model demonstrates that the foreign policy output of the PLO experienced a gradual, over time change in both the means and ends of its foreign policy. The model...

Prior studies, however, have focused on the role of formal institutions. Yet, many emerging economies have had high levels of entrepreneurial investment for a relatively long period with deficient formal institutions. This study argues that political connections, which are a more fundamental aspect of networking in emerging economies, may act as substitutes for deficient market and legal institutions, thus facilitating entrepreneurial investment. The empirical test uses a nationally representative sample of entrepreneurial firms in reform-era China. The results suggest that entrepreneurial firms with political connections (or higher level political connections) have significantly higher reinvestment rate, in particular, among smaller firms. xxx 1105 investment in emerging markets. The empirical test uses a nationally representative sample of 1946 Chinese entrepreneurial firms surveyed in 1997. China in the early reform era (1978-1999) provides an appropriate context for this test for two reasons. First, China has been the largest emerging economy since it initiated economic reform in the late 1970s (Naughton, 2007). Second, despite unfavorable legal and regulatory institutions and a less developed market system as in many other emerging economies, Chinese entrepreneurs have maintained high level of reinvestment rate and thus have played an increasingly important role in China's rapid economic growth in the reform era (Zhou, 2009). 2. POLITICAL CONNECTIONS AND ENTREPRENEURIAL INVESTMENT 2.1 Institutions and entrepreneurship The recent entrepreneurship literature has highlighted the association between institutions and

Relying on content analysis of relevant PLO documents, the role modification model demonstrates that the foreign policy output of the PLO experienced a gradual, over time change in both the means and ends of its foreign policy. The model also identifies the conditions under which any one of the independent variables is able to exclusively determine foreign policy output and which roles one can reasonably expect the PLO to exercise under a given circumstance.
