The authors of this timely and provocative book use the tools of economic analysis to examine
the formation and change of political borders. They argue that while these issues have always
been at the core of historical analysis, international economists have tended to regard the size of
a country as "exogenous," or no more subject to explanation than the location of a mountain
range or the course or a river. Alesina and Spolaore consider a country's borders to be subject 'to
the same analysis as any other man-made institution. In The Size of Nations they argue that the
optimal size or a country is determined by a cost-benefit trade-off between the benefits of size
and the costs of heterogeneity. In a large country, per capita costs may be low, but the hetero¬
geneous preferences of a large population make it hard to deliver services and formulate policy.
Smaller countries may find it easier to respond to citizen preferences in a democratic way.
Alesina and Spolaore substantiate their analysis with simple analytical models thai show how the
patterns of globalization, international conflict, and democratization or the last two hundred
years can explain patterns of state formation. Their aim is not only "normative" but also "posi¬
tive"
phenomenon or country size in reality.
