This talk discusses the challenges that unilateral\, voter-endorsed at tempts by one member state to withdraw from or renegotiate the terms of ex isting international institutions create for the institution’s other mem ber states. It argues that such voter-endorsed “cooperation challenges ” tend to reverberate abroad: First\, they influence public and elite vi ews about the merits of the international institution and thus can create contagion effects\, but can also have stabilizing effects depending on how the they highlight the risks and opportunities associated with exit and r enegotiation. Second\, the loss of\, or change in the distribution of\, co operation gains can have considerable effects on the institutions’ other member states. Finally\, these reverberations abroad influence how member states respond to unilateral voter-endorsed “cooperation challenges.” Drawing on comparative case studies of a diverse set of voter-endorsed ch allenges to international institutions and on survey evidence from the EU- 27 as well as a panel of Swiss respondents\, the talk shows that this fram ework can help us better understand the (non-)existence of contagion effec ts across member states\, variation in the responses of the remaining memb er states to voter-endorsed challenges to international institutions\, and the ultimate outcomes of such cooperation challenges.\n\n___\n\nStefanie Walter is Full Professor for International Relations and Political Economy at the Department of Political Science at the University of Zurich.
